They aren’t going to make their original Sept 30th close date…but I don’t think they’ll be too far off. I cannot WAIT to move in! Can I just say how in love with this house I am?? It has more storage space than I think we could ever fill up…hooray! I love the layout. This is pretty much my dream house with the only exception being that in an ideal world I would like more land. Like, acres of it with trees and hills and a breathtaking view. But alas, we cannot afford the house AND the land, so house it is.
The kids were with us as we walked around. Jack repurposed the dining room into a nap area. Charlie followed us around jumping. I’m not sure what it is with kids this age and jumping…this girl would happily spend an hour or more just hopping around. Of course, in our 3rd floor apartment that makes for VERY unhappy neighbors below us…so we’ve had to make a no jumping rule. 
This makes her very sad (and whiny), so she spends pretty much all of our time outside of the apartment jumping everywhere. Today while she was jumping we learned that she can count to 10…in Spanish. Counting to 10 is not new for her, I think she’s up to counting to 100 in ENGLISH, but I had no idea that she could count in Spanish! I think I need to brush up on my Spanish skills, because the child is clearly already smarter than I am and I have to do my best to maintain at least the IMPRESSION that Mommy knows it all.

It looks a lot bigger from the back yard than from the front.
And just look at all that mud Charlie will get to play in until the landscaping is done.

It’s lovely! The big windows are wonderful and the master bedroom looks like a fabulous space. Can’t wait to see it when you’ve had a chance to settle in. Fingers crossed for it to be done by mid-October. Hugs to all.
