I can't even believe it, but after 2 days on the market, we received an offer on our house and are IN CONTRACT - set to close September 18th if all goes well.
We listed the house Monday afternoon and the 2nd people that looked at the house put an offer in on Wednesday night. We had everything finalized on Thursday.
This is all a little overwheliming to be honest!
While it's awesome to have one big worry off our plate, it's a little daunting to have such a short time limit on finding Brendan a job, us a house to live in, and Jackson a daycare in the DFW area.
I know we'll get it done..we always do. In fact, we honestly don't know how to do anything without having 3 or 4 other stressful things to handle along with it!
Reminder:
We got married October 21, 2006.
Went to Mexico on a week-long honeymoon that next monday. Got back Friday.
Moved to Wichita Falls that very Saturday.
Brendan didn't have a job then.
We got pregnant November 2006.
Bought a house April 2007.
Had Jackson July 31, 2007.

So we should be used to this crazyness, right? Haha!

At least this time, there's no pregnancy involved! We were gonna try but with all of this madness, we've decided to hold off a little while. I can only handle so much!

But I wanted to update you guys on the house. The termite inspection is set for today and the home inspection for tomorrow at 1pm. I'm not too concerned since we just bought the house 2 years ago and had it inspected then. Surely nothing major has changed, right?! We'll see.

This weekend we are going up to McKinney to look at some houses while Jackson spends some time with his Nana and Pappa Jim. I didn't figure he would be condusive to a pleasant house-hunting experience! I'm excited to see what's out there but not planning to buy a house without Brendan having a job first so we'll see..I'll keep ya posted!
