BOO!!!!

So yea, we didn't get the house afterall. The appraisal came in super low cause apparently the house was like 200 sq ft smaller then the seller said. Needless to say, the dude won't drop the price down to the appraisal price, which makes no sense because he won't be able to sell it for more then the appraisal. So now we are back to square one. We went out last Saturday and found absolutely NOTHING!!! I was so mad at the lack of choices available to us. So we decided that we are going to raise out price, AGAIN. Now that we've raised our price, there are more options available to us, and they are closer in and not just in East Mesa and Queen Creek. I went out yesterday and looked at some new builds, but they were all small. I'm going out today to look at some more new builds and then a couple of other houses in Queen Creek. Tomorrow I think that I am going to focus on houses in Gilbert. I just hope we find something soon. I am so sick of looking for a house and then getting a house and having my hopes dashed because something happens...it's frustrating. Dominic and I are ready to be in our own house so that we can start working on growing our family. I always thought it would be so much fun to go and look at houses, but it hasn't been fun at all, it's been one really long, drawn out, stressful, painful, and expensive process. AND because of all the stress from the house crap, I've made myself sick and I'm having crazy, crazy dreams. Dom isn't sleeping through the night either. He's falling asleep fine, but then he wakes up around 1 or 2 and then he is in and out of sleep until the alarm goes off at 5:50. We are both so ready for the stress to be over with so that we can have a peaceful nights sleep!

YAY!!!

Our house passed the inspection!! There is hardly anything that needs to be fixed. There is ONE lose tile and ONE flashing missing! The last house had a ton of problems with the roof so I was really happy when we found out this roof was good! The front door frame needs to be sanded down in one corner, some more insulation needs to be added to the attic, and we need to add some rocks to the front yard so that water doesn't collect next to the foundation. I'm so excited because I LOVE this house. It's so cute. I've had a lot of fun buying stuff for the house...and I can't wait to move in. Thankfully we don't have to wait too long because we close on March 26th and we get to start moving that day!

Once again...

We are once again under contract. This house came on the market late Friday afternoon, we went and looked first thing Saturday morning and I fell in love. We found out yesterday afternoon that our offer was accepted! We have the inspection in Saturday morning and I'm hoping that everything is good. This house is beautiful. The inside was just redone and everything is brand new and ungraded. It's a little smaller then the other house, and it's a little farther away, but I like it a TON more. I'm feeling really good about this one. The builder of this house has a much better reputation then the builder of the last house, so that's a positive sign. I've actually never even heard anything bad about this builder. As long as everything goes good on Saturday, we will be closing March 26th, the day after our 5 year wedding anniversary. I can't believe that we've been married for almost 5 years, it's crazy! Fingers are crossed that everything goes well and I'm in my own house by the end of the month. Oh, and since I'll have a house, I'm going to Texas with Marina and Desi for Easter so that I can get the rest of my stuff from my parents house before they move. Well, everything but the hutch...I'm too scared to move that cause I might break it...
