shhh... don't bother the girls.


This is how I caught Em and Stella out the kitchen window the other day.  Stella has been such a good girl, we can tell she's maturing because she no longer pulls on walks.  It's about time she's actually enjoyable to walk.  We haven't found a house yet.  34 more days until we hand over the keys.  It's getting a bit scary.  Who knew house hunting was such an emotional process.  There is such a drastic range of emotions daily... excitement, worry, anger, hope, disappointment, relief, and then worry all over again.  We put in an offer on a house the other night.  Beautiful home inside, but the driveway was literally a 45 degree angle straight into the garage.  You wouldn't even be able to get into your garage in the winter. We tried parking the car in it and it bottomed out.  Not on the best kid friendly lot either, nice cul-de-sac to play in, but not much for yard.  It's empty though, so desperation set in. If only the driveway was more flat.... it was priced right and tons of square footage.  Disappointing!  We ended up withdrawing the offer.  Back to square one.  If only the folks that have the nice 4 bedroom homes in nice neighborhoods didn't think they were worth $300K+.
