Patience is a virtue...that I simply don't have.

We've been looking at houses recently and finally found one that we thought would work for us. We put in an offer last Tuesday and we STILL haven't heard anything. It's driving me nuts! Our real estate agent has been calling us every day since Thursday saying "they're telling me they'll have an answer for us TODAY", which certainly doesn't help my patience. And of course the longer I wait the more convinced I am that I really want this house. Oh yeah...and did I mention that someone else put in an offer the same day we did? So now I'm nervous in conjunction with being impatient, which has made me cranky and inattentive all week! (IF we end up getting this one, i'll post pictures....you'll all be laughing at the old fixer-upper that i had my little heart set on!) I have to keep reminding myself that if it's the right house it'll work out. It's just hard to wait.....

All about Eva

I like to check on Eva before I go to bed, and last night was no exception. I went in to check on her and...as usual...she was snoozing away peacefully.....completely and utterly BUTT NAKED! i had a hard time making it out of her room before i busted up laughing. i don't know if she was too hot or what, but i hope this isn't a trend. thankfully i was able to get a diaper on her without her waking up too much.

She has taken a liking to going through my jewelry (much to my chagrin) and managed to hook an earring over her ear. she kept walking around shaking her head and giggling about the earring swinging back and forth.

Her newest favorite thing is to get into her retired baby car seat, hook the chest strap by herself (don't try to help her...she'll bite your head off) cover up with her blanket, surround herself with her stuffed animals and look through a pile of her books. funny...that's one of my favorite things to do too....except for the furry friends and being strapped into a much too small seat. she can do this for a half hour at a time, which is really nice for me. the only drawback is she doesn't know how to undo the chest strap so i have to come in several times and unhook it for her so that we can repeat the whole process.
