BIG SHOCKER

We aren't closing tomorrow as we were supposed to...Long story basically our financing is all set. The title to the house was refinanced and the original loan wasn't closed properly. Until it is we cant close. We have written okay from the bank(the seller) till the 9th to clear this up or it all blows up in our face.

Guess what I was doing a year ago today!!

Thats right we got hitched. I was 4.5 months prego with Aubrey and in my defense we had our wedding planned for 5 months before that little snot was conceived. I cant believe we made it to a year. We don't claim to have the perfect marriage because we do not. We don't see eye to eye a lot, we aren't lovey dovey all the time,but we do love each other in our own special way. Who would have thought we would be buying a house. If you told us that last year today I would not have believed you. Anyways heres some pics...

Everything is all set it seems

I had to go on Friday morning to the Mortgage office. The underwriter and done his thing and it was back with the assistant. She had to look everything over one last time then it was going to be closed!!! She said she would get to it Friday afternoon or Monday morning. We have the closing scheduled for Wednesday morning at 10 a.m. Lets hope it doesn't change and we don't lose the house last minute because of it. We have already been to Home Depot twice and picked out our paints, doors, etc!! YAY 2.5 days and we could be home owners, in debt, and owners of a HUGE fixer upper ;)

I WUV ANIMALS

We went to this small kinda crappy but cheap zoo we normally go to a few times a year. I didnt realize how much Trev LOVES animals. He always walks around with these cheap animals I got on clearance for like 2.50 at Target after Christmas. Well we get there and he finds a MAP!! SO he of course had to stop every 5 mins and check the map and decide which animal we were to see next. He would stop and stare for about 10 mins with each animal. Then he wanted to shoot them(he plays a hunting game on ps2 with daddy) We had to tell him that wasn't okay to talk about at the zoo lol.. He has such a blast. He was a little confused as to why reindeer's don't have antlers, why flamingos stunk, why there was a macaw and deigo was nowhere to be found....It was cute...We had dinner at the Rain forest Cafe after it was a great weekend.

You read the sign dont feed the animals...



Deciding where we were going next....

Aubrey is 8 months old

Dont mind my bootleg way of copying and pasting pics....O well you know how I am. Anyways. She has 2 teeth already and drooling like crazy so I'm sure more are coming in. Shes finally able to fall asleep on her own if we just put her in the crib. Sitting up and rolling all around. She refuses to crawl. Shes a little less dramatic and better with people. Just think 4 more months and she will be off the boob...You don't care but I do. I cannot WAIT to be free of the leach again.

Dear Carrie..

Dear Carrie Underwood

Why are you so pretty?! Why can you sing?! Why are you so flawless? Why are you so skinny?! Your britney spears fuck up is coming. Your just to perfect. Or am I just to jealous!!

Thats all for now

Appraisial is in

AND IT IS GOOD!!! It came in at 173000!!!! We have a loan for 153000!! So we already have 20k in equity!! YAY!! So as soon as the year is up we get to take the pmi off our mortgage payment making it 69 dollars less then it is!! Im so excited about that.

It did come back about missing pieces of siding and flooring which sucks because we plan on replacing the floor before we move in and the siding in a year or so. But if we have to fix it to get the loan whatever :)

Looks like things are going great and we will be closing on April 30th. But I'm sure we will get 400 more road blocks because thats how this process has been going
