Isn't this fun.

I knew it was going to easy the first week. Apparently the 2nd week is when things get hairy. They want everything. I half expect them to want my blood and first born... ( think I can talk them into 2nd?)

Yesterday in the mail we recieved a book of papers to sign...like 50 times we had to sign our names, it was crazy.

I am so nervous about all this...what if I don't have a piece of paper that they need? Are we gonna lose the house?? I have invested too much of myself into the thought of this. I was able to get my work to send some paycheck stubs to the office...I have been able to give them everything thus far...it's just the WHAT IFS...I cannot help it, it's my personality. I am losing sleep, I am not eating. I am gonna lose weight, not complaining about that.

We close on the 19th...less than 2 weeks to that I have to deal with this.

Prayers that this works! Someone said we won't know till the day before that everything is ready.

Moving on up...

We found it. put in an offer...it was accepted, we are scheduled for closing on 2.19!!!!

I love it. I am trying to not get too excited because in these times anything could happen with the mortgage company.

Lots of prayers are requested for a smooth transaction and moving process!

I like it!

Now I gotta plead my case to hubs. We narrowed it down to 2 houses...and I need to tell him why mine is the bestest. Not his.

Wish me luck...I am tired. I want to sleep.

WANTED:

Someone to come clean my house. And chaffeur me to look at these houses. And to wake with the baby at night. And to cook.

All for the same pay I get. The satisfaction of knowing it's done.

HAHA.

House hunting still going on. Husband still alive...i need his income for our house. Kids, still kids.

House hunting going easier since we agreed upon a higher, still affordable, amount.

I am coming outta my PP funk. Called work today and they said I sounded happier on the phone and they were worried about me because I wasn't my normal self before...well, bitches, I'M BBBBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACK. Hehe. I love my job and the peeps I work with are fun and we like to give each other a hard time. It'll be hard to leave the baby to go back to work, but, I gotta.

Love.

I love hearing my kids running through the house laughing and squealing at each other. Even if it means that they are chasing each other throwing balls at each others heads.

I love when they get along.

I love laying in my bed.

I love bed time.

and a funny.

i am on a roll.

Last night jacob walked by me and there was something in his ear (i am waaay wierd about things in ears, so I immediately dug it out), it was what I think, is his tube. He had tubes put in last Juneish...so I saved it and put it in a plastic bag and will call the Dr today to see if it's something they need to see him about.

Well. This am I was making Noah's lunch. I went to put his nuggets in a bag and something rolled out, it was the wax covered tube. How traumatized would he have been to have seen that in his lunch. He'd probably never eat again. I am cracking up over it, Noah wouldn't think it was so funny. We won't tell him, k?!

Now, I am quite nervous about this tube falling out already...Jacob had ear infections constantly before he had tubes, I am talking the kind where green pus was coming out of his ear every other week. I soooo hope we don't begin to have them again. The surgery was expensive enough the first time.

Other news. While I am still awake. Noah hates me, he's never going to do any chores (or see light of day outside of school), or do me any favors (I'll no longer buy him food)...I'm a terrible person and he said he was gonna hit me as hard as he could when he got outta his room(not if he ever wants to wipe his own ass again). So please, noone feel sorry for my child who is punished from the TV indefinately (18 anyone?) and who is going to be feeling the repercussions of his mean words and actions for a while...he did start it by spanking Jacob...in front of me...oh nonoonono, I am the only one who can beat my children.

P.S. I will buy him food, let a lil light in his room every hour or so, and I don't beat them (often)...and he doesn't wipe his own ass now for god sakes.

oh ya

and the littlest one has been up since 3 am...going on 4 hours now, and he wonders why he's fussy...cause he won't go to sleep damnit...Neither can I, now I have kids to get to school and grocery shopping to do.

Then I will sleep the day away=)


Edited...baby fell asleep, now I will do the same..kids at school, grocery shopping will be done...before 3...unless I sleep till then.

Duck tape.

is what I am going to use on Jacob. But, not for his mouth (I will save that use for Noah) for his DIAPER at night. This child wakes up most nights to go to the bathroom...extremly pissed off at that too...he screams and is just pissed. But anyway. I make him sleep in diapers, cause he is in our bed. (ya, you wanna come too, everyone else sleeps here) ANYWAY.

back to the point. When Jacob pees in his diaper at night, he just takes it off. Yes, tony slept with a piss diaper underneath him last night, better him than me. But. Jacob is naked in my bed, god only knows when he'd pee again!!! So, to prevent the problem I will now make it impossible for him (and I) to get them off...wish us luck.

Just 5 more minutes mom...

that is how Noah started his day. So I let him sleep for 30 more min and drove him to school, he was 2 min late. Oh well. Get over it.

I actually did sleep well last night, as did little man! He is just now waking up fussing for food so I gotta run and feed him...going to look at a few houses in an hour, wish me luck=)

Haha. Funny.

I cleaned today. My mom came over, walked in, walked out, and walked in again. She said she thought she was at the wrong house. Our front room/dining room has been overrun with Christmas crap and and OVER abundance of toys. I guess I finally got tired of it and just started throwing shit in their rooms.

So, while the front room and kitchen got cleaner today, my room and the boys rooms did not.

I have to start packing eventually too, I know we have to move in like 10 weeks...hopefully we'll have bought a house so we dont have to do it again. I have 2 houses I wanna go see tomorrow or Wednesday. We shall see.

Can I get some "Baby sleep tonight" prayers??? He really likes to sleep during the day, and wake up at night...Not my style. At all.

2 more.

I picked out 2 more houses to go see this week. We will see.

Also. Just a warning. If you are in this house tonight, when the baby wakes up, you will be woken up too. I tried my damnedest to get a nap today and noone would let me. Okee dokee boys, mommy is a revengeful bitch. I will get you back. If I have to wake up 3 times at night, for an hour each time, and not be able to get a rest during the day...the same will apply to you.

Big news. I got the biggest of my kids to eat half a pb&j sandwhich today! That is big news.

Ya, scratch that one.

Flood zone A1...flooded 3 times...the slope between the living room and the kitchen that the kids would constantly get on their bikes and ride down (all 5 feet)...ya SCRATCH IT.

I don't want a house that has flooded 1 time, much less 3 times.

The search continues.

Oh, but wait. We have agreed we aren't going to just "jump" on a house. We can and will rent again if need to. But there is a nice tax incentive for first time homebuyers to close on a house by June 30th (i think)...

But, my major thing is I REALLY REALLY REEEEEEEALLLLLLLYYYYYYY wanna keep Noah in the school that he is in. I cannot express that enough. Well. Tony doesn't have that same outlook (and he had the nerve to call me bullheaded and so stubborn this am, wtf?) he says we can just say we live with my mom and dad and send him from there.

#1 That is lying, I don't do it well.
#2 It wouldn't "inconvience" him, he wouldn't have to get up and take anyone or pick anyone up!

Gotta go make a walmart list for Tony..

Ya. not starting out great.

Well. Supposed to be looking at a few houses today. I already called RE agent and backed out...just gonna go see one. I didn't sleep last night. I am not in the mood to do this. Period.

Crap.

can I say how scared I am to actually think about buying a house. I am so scared something is going to fo wrong...AHHHHHHHHHH.

And, this will make me an adult! Holy crap batman.

Ha. And you all thought I was gone. And bald.

And I almost was.

But, alas, here I am.

With all my hair. My kids. Oh boy. All 3 of them. Oh boys!!

The boys just love their little brother. So much they have already shared their cold with him. (thanks, I love hearing little pig noises while I try to sleep.) Really. I feel bad for the poor baby. He has that snotty nose and I am constantly coming at him with the bulb thingy...he's my 3rd kid and I just learned how to USE it!! It really works...next I have to learn how to use these saline drops I got this am.

It's cold!! I had to go to CVS this am and get some medicine for my tata's...Thrush, we just love it. I tell ya'll, this 3rd child and last 2 weeks have been enough to put someone in the nut house. If it can go wrong, it seems to be.

And big news on the front over here. Besides we just had another baby. We have applied to be pre approved for a house and hope to buy and move before the end of March! I am SURE I will have plenty of amusing stories in the next few weeks as I have a little more time on my hands...

AS I typed this, ironically, my phone rang and it was the mortgage chic, cause she is a chick...got us preapproved and the hunt is on!
