Bump

Three baby bump pictures at 26 weeks :)

Offer Accepted…..

I am such a worrier just like my Dad. I have been feeling so overwhelmed lately. We found a house that we really like and our offer was accepted…yeah. I still feel very nervous about all of the pieces (inspection, appraisal, closing) working out. I do not dare say it is our house until all of that falls together. If all of the details work out, we will close on June 8th. On top of that stress I have been worrying about the Gestational Diabetes test I took last week. I know that the test is a standard thing, but I stress out about every test I have with this baby until I get the results. I wish they would just call me and get it over with….aggghhh! James does not worry like I do and I am grateful that at least one of us is sane when it comes to big decisions. I will say that I am a little jealous of him at night when he is sleeping sound and I am tossing and turning, nervous and uncomfortable with a big prego belly. I can’t wait until these things are resolved……so I can start worrying about something new :)

Pictures of the house

House Hunters

If any of you have watched “House Hunters” on HGTV then you would be under the assumption that finding a house is a rather simple endeavor. Episodes show perspective buyers looking at three houses and then making a decision to buy out of those three. They obviously must be looking at more houses behind the scenes and just re-visit the ones that they were most interested in. At this point we have seen about 15-20 houses and have looked at hundreds online. I hope that we can find a house soon. We are going out on Monday to look at some more houses. We have driven by them and from the outside, they look pretty promising.

I have the most amazing family in the world.......Seriously….

Buying a house and having a baby are probably two of the most stressful things that people go through in life. Especially if it is your first on both and you are doing it at the same time. Hehe. I am so grateful that I have such a supportive family and I know we could not do this without their help. Every single one of them has made huge sacrifices to help us and I know I owe them all big time. My parents have been wonderful. They have been very creative in helping us come up with ways to save some extra money. They have also offered us a ton of free things that we really need. My Mom has bought a ton of things for the baby. I know she loves to shop for her and it sure saves us a lot of money. She has bought a swing, dozens of outfits, booties, blankets, etc. My Argyle side of the family has gone above and beyond anything that we could have ever imagined. Grandma, Sharon, and Connie have all bought stuff for our little baby. Grandma bought a chandelier for the nursery and I can’t wait to see it. She has also bought cute outfits for Peyton and me and is sewing some things that I am sure will be wonderful. Connie bought our convertible stroller. It is a stroller/ car seat and will work until the baby reaches 50 ib. (only 49 to go..ha). Sharon is buying the baby a beautiful bassinet fit for a princess. She has also bought clothes for me and the baby. On top of the help they are giving us with the baby, they are also helping us get into our house. I feel very blessed to have a family that loves me so much. I am also so excited that little Peyton is being born into such a wonderful family.
