Let the countdown begin...

I've been holding off on posting about our home because we're still in closing but I have faith that all will go as planned.

Yes, we finally found our home & are set to close March 11th! 

Last year Sage & I sat down & set many goals...
One of them was for us to be pre-approved in January before my birthday & have enough saved to begin the house hunting process.  Another goal was to find a house & be moved in or in closing before Sage's birthday.  Well, if all goes as planned, we will have conquered our goals & I can't say enough how proud I am of us for that. 

Not to brag but Sage & I make an incredible team.  This entire process has been proof of that.  He's worked long hours of overtime to get us here & I've spent countless hours prepping, signing & sending all sorts of documents, offers, disclosures, scheduled our inspections, processed payments for things, searched for home warranties.  In other words, a lot of "adulting" has been taking place.  As silly as it sounds, at 26 years old, I feel like a real adult now lol!  

No but really, I am so proud of Sage & I & how hard we've both worked to get us to this point. 

March 11th can't come soon enough!  We're already anticipating making amazing changes to our house to make it our home.  I'm so excited!

3rd time isn't a charm...

3rd offer placed, rejected.

A cash buyer swooped on in & ruined everything lol! I'm still a bit bitter...

Anyways, the search continues & Sage & I are becoming a bit discouraged.  The competition out there is endless. I hate it! 

I noticed I haven't updated on my gems in awhile so I figure I'll stop on the house updated & update on something that makes me happy, my babies!

Anelia is a full grown little girl with quite the personality.  She's still hilarious, still a soar patch kid yet still so sweet & caring. She's at the age where she can really sense when you're down & offers lots of love & little cuddles.

Tai is a walking little chatter box.  She says so many words it's crazy...
Mama
Dada
No
Yesss
Please
Cheese
Hi
Bye bye 
Uma (kiss)
Sasa (hit) 
Nigh nigh 
What's that?
Who's that?

Those are just a few too. She's seriously grown far too quickly & definitely isn't a baby anymore. 

They both get along for the most part. Anelia hates sharing & Tai packs a punch in her hit & loves to tackle... So it's safe to say the fights are amusing.  They hug randomly & love to share laughs.  Watching them bond is my favorite thing to witness.
