I can't believe it's been a month since I posted. Time just got away from me, especially because shortly after my last post we started looking for a house. I think we looked at 15 or so houses within just a couple weeks. We put in a full price offer only to have it rejected (the seller thought they could get more $$ from a cash offer), but jokes on them because their buyer backed out and that place is still on the market. And they had to drop the price. Hashtag sorry not sorry. That's what the kids say these days, right?
Anyway, a few days later we found another house that we absolutely loved so we put in an offer.
Long story short, we get the keys on Monday! We are so excited our offer was accepted (and that we got a screamin' deal) and can't wait to move in. It's within walking distance of a Starbucks, so you can imagine my enthusiasm for the place is pretty high. We need to buy a few appliances and paint a couple walls before we get all moved in, but we should be sleeping there by the end of next weekend!
Brian just signed up to begin working towards becoming a Certified Financial Planner (CFP). I'm so proud of him! This will be such a huge undertaking and I know he's going to crush it.
Quentin is growing like a weed and babbling constantly. He likes to growl at us and make us laugh, and he loves playing with Dada's hats. He is always trying to eat our toes which is both cute and gross, a common theme with him. He went in a pool for the first time and loved it, which is not surprising considering how much he enjoys baths.
We go to Gymboree once a week and he is loving it! (Well, he cried the first few times but now he's loving it, I swear). We also went with some friends and their kiddos to a parent participation-heavy story time at the library that (unfortunately) he was really into. He didn't seem to care at all that his parents had to continually humiliate themselves for his pleasure. Little does he know that we would do absolutely anything for him, even sing loudly and in weird voices in a room full of people. And also do really embarrassing dances.
We are missing everyone in Washington, but we really love it here in the desert. It's very hot right now, but there's something to be said about having sunshine every day. Plus, succulents are really cheap and you can grow your own limes. Corona, anyone?
