Hopeful to move

AAAHHHH!!! I am so freaking excited right now I can hardly stand it. Elliott and I went to look at a house yesterday and I AM IN LOVE (again)!!!! Awesome, awesome, awesome is all I can say. This house has it all for an unbelievable price tag. Full finished walkout basement w/ powder room, eat in kitchen, formal dining room w/ wood fireplace, living room, sliders to big deck off kitchen. Then upstairs there are 3 bedrooms with huge master walk-in closet & bathroom with jacuzzi tub and stall shower, a 2nd full bath, and to top it off there is a finished loft that can be used as a 4th bedroom....where Nykolas will sleep. A total of 1680 sq. ft.



We are working up a lease to own and are hoping to move in beginning Aug. 23rd....anyone available to help???? There is so much more that I didn't even list...don't want to bore anyone. We really can not wait to finally have a place of our own!! Here is a picture of our potential new home.



On the babies side. We are 8w 1d. I am feeling pretty good. Still tired and a little sick in the AM but both are to be expected.

Our Pregnancy Journey...it was a short one

Elliott and I were married on May 3, 2008. We knew before we got married that we wanted to have more kids (2 more)...little did we know that we would get both at one time.

We decided at the end of May that we weren't going to wait until Sept. to start trying because there was a 25% chance each cycle that we would get pregnant. Well Fertile Mertile and the Super Swimmers got it on the 1st try and boy did we really GET IT! We got our positive pregnancy test on June 17th.
The 1st OB visit turned out to be very interesting!! Filled out all the paperwork, checked height and weight, then there was the u/s. The Dr. did the first on on my stomach and we immediately found 1 heartbeat. She kept looking around and saw a 2nd sac but didn't see anything which prompted her to do an internal u/s. Again saw 2 sacs easily but only one HB. After a little more 'digging' she found a very faint second HB. Yep we are having twins.
