Weekly Grocery/household Haul - Target

 

Target (non-super center)

9/30

 

Things were just off for me as I was breaking routine and going a day early.  Didn't think much about it but you could just feel the change in routine.  K was with me as his dad happened to work over time and couldn't watch K.  The reason I went a day early was that we were having our 2nd homestudy visit the next day.  That ended up getting changed as well.  That's just another story when I write about our adoption process.

 

So K and I went shopping and found almost everything we need to complete dinners on the menu for the week.  We ended up with lots of fall treats as well.

 

Here is our Weekly shopping haul

We've Moved

 

Wow!  It has happened we've finally moved into our new house.  Isaac and I have worked so hard to make the dream of being home owners a reality.  Closing was amazing.  It was quick and so amazing.  The nerves didn't hit until I was about to step into the escrow office to sign papers. 

 

Our awesome Realtor was there to hold our hands..Ha!  No we just all joked around for the most part.  As I stated before closing went fast and guess who forgot to take a picture of the signing paper work.  Yeah, that's right I did. Oops but we rushed to the CB house to grab our dogs and head to the new house for the night.

 

Oh yes we did.  We had KFC for dinner on the floor of our new living room watching wreck it Ralph.  Come bedtime we all crashed on the floor in the master bedroom.  We all had such a rush all day that we were out by 10.

 

 

Kayden's first time riding in a big truck and 1st move that he remembers.

 

Stay tuned for more house updates

The Best email ever

"I wanted to let you know we received loan approval from the lender late Friday! Your loan is approved with the lender, which is great news! And Even better, they are not asking for any additional information from you! " Sent to us from our broker

I read this first thing this morning, and the first thing I did was text hubs to call me.  K happened to walk to into the room and he said "WHAT"  I guess he knew something was up.  I told him and he got the biggest smile ever and gave me the biggest HUG ever.  He's excited to get a bigger house that we can start our adoption journey in.  He than went running around the house laughing.  Hubs called and I got to share the news with him.  I could hear his huge smile over the phone.

The family is excited and now we are just waiting to schedule our closing date.  Sooner than later at this point.  Can't wait to move in and start the journey of making our new house our home :o)


All the glory to GOD

SQUEAL  SQUEAL SQUEAL

Boxes Boxes and more Boxes

The Packing has started as we have FOUND a house. 

 

 I will show the house once we have the keys in hand.  After losing a house due to Seller backing out, Losing to a cash offer, to a bad realtor practice (not ours) and another seller who just really didn't know what she wanted (house on the market 500 plus days)  Yikes and I thought our job of finding a house was hard.  We are just keeping it under wraps for a little while.

 

Kayden has been to the house and he approves!  He's one excited kiddo as we get ready to leave the only house he remembers (12M-8yr)

 

Kaydens room is one of our staging areas for boxes as his room will be the last to be painted back to dreadful basic white. The green things on the walls are labels.  I know!  Who does that?  Yes we can say a little OCD here.  Ha, it keeps me sane to have order esp in this major stressful event.

 

 

 The master is coming apart.  I mean literally.  Look under that window shaker A/C unit.  This house has so much settling happening and when the A/C broke 2 summers ago it all got wet.  Well, the plaster is OLD and was wet so it's just crumbling.  EWWWW!  Yes I painted around the area that needed fixed with plans to paint when it was done.  Looks like that is NOT happening now.

 Our love seat is covered in framed photo's, which all need to be wrapped and packed up.  For now this works as they will be some of the last things in the moving truck so they will be the first things out of the truck.

 Kaydens count down for the move.  Can you see that we had to extend the dates from the 1st house to the house that we picked.

 

Yes this house was the 5th house but it's by far our favorite of the 5 we thought we loved.  This house is move in ready.  Not saying we aren't going to do anything but not right away as we want to settle a little and feel the flow pattern before we do much.  There is only 1 thing that will happen right away but again will share that juicy details later once we have the keys in hand
