2 year anniversary!

Yesterday Michael and I celebrated our 2 year anniversary. I can't believe we have been married for 2 years! Its crazy. Last night we went to "The Melting Pot". It was fantastic. It was nice to have a quiet dinner just the two of us. We have been so preoccupied with getting ready to buy the house and baby stuff that we haven't really had time for us. It was a great day to remember the most wonderful day of my life and to remember what an amazing husband I have!

I am soo mad with my realtor!!!

This may get confusing. We have 2 home offers. The first house I will call the tucson house. The second house will be called the vail house. Ok, here we go...

We put an offer on the tucson house about 6 months ago. It was a short sale so it was taking a while. We found another house so we pulled our offer on it. Well, that house fell through so we decided to put in another offer in on the tucson house. We have been waiting to hear for them since August. Well, last week I noticed the tucson house was not on MLS so we thought the house foreclosed. My father-in-law was on mls looking for houses for us and found the tucson house back on-line. He was wondering why it said Active in the status so he called the realtor selling the tucson house. The realtor said that we pulled our offer on the house. My father-in-law told them that we have not. Ken (the tucson realtor) said he had the papers that said we pulled our offer and the bank is working with someone else on an offer. Michael and I think that our realtor never sent the second offer on the house! I don't know what else it could be!

My father-in-law should not have had to call the other realtor! That is my realtor's job! Why is he not following up on these houses? I am so frustrated. I want to walk away from this but I feel bad because he has been with us since March. It is not my job to find houses on mls, to call the other realtors to find out why it is taking so long. GRRR.

However, our realtor sent Michael an e-mail saying that the vail house might take another 5 weeks to be approved. What?! He told us 5 weeks tops. We are trying to get the $8000 tax credit here. I don't think we will get it. I deserve that money after having 5 houses fall through!

Day of Highs and Lows

Today started off really bad. I work for a doctor who does not work on Wednesdays and Fridays. Usually I find something to do on those days. Today I asked my boss what I could do and she said, "I have no more work for you." After we talked for a little bit, it was decided that I would only work the days the doctor is working unless they have something I could do. It sucks that I am now only working part-time but I guess it's good because that will be my work schedule after the baby is born so Michael can I can get used to our finances this way. We still haven't heard about the house so hopefully that will change soon!

The best part of the day was my OB appointment. The doctor could not find the heart beat with the doppler. She tried to for about 5 minutes with no luck. I was so scared! She found the heart beat last time, so why not this time!? She had to bring in the ultrasound machine to make sure everything was ok. As soon as she started, we saw our Little One squirming around with a heart beat going 150 strong. We saw our baby waving at us (our baby has fingers!!) and we saw him/her moving it's mouth!! It was so surreal! I am so glad everything is ok. I asked her if she could determine the sex but she couldn't tell. We will have our big ultrasound in 4 weeks so hopefully we will find the sex then! I can't stop smiling!

Oh No!!

This morning my car made a noise... a really big noise. Now, I am not a car person so if I could hear a noise coming from my car then it must be bad. I can't really describe what it sounded like but it was like when you start your car when your foot is accidentally on the gas. I didn't think much of it till it happened when I started my car again to go home from work. My loving husband looked at the car for me and he is not happy. He said that he has to take apart the engine to figure out what's going on. He then told me that it is not a good idea for me to drive the car until it's fixed. Which means my wonderful in-laws will have to drive me to work and my husband will pick me up from work. I feel like I am in high school again. Ugh.. what am I to do??

Ah, morning sickness

So, I thought I was going through this pregnancy pretty well. I was having no morning sickness, frequent urination and all those pregnancy symptoms. Well, I now I am officially in the morning sickness club. This week has been rough but today was bad. I was driving to work and I was at a stop light. Then i got the sudden urge to gag. So, i opened the car door, while waiting for the light to change, and I puked on the side of the road. Fun. I probably scared the people behind me but I least I didn't get sick inside the car. I hope I never have to do that again.
