Well, we are now back to our 'two kids, two dogs, two adults' family. We decided last minute to go house hunting over Thanksgiving weekend which was the perfect excuse to have to give the 4 foster dogs back. We have (mostly) enjoyed having the puppies to look after but they just kept getting to be more and more to handle the older they got and I just didn't want to do it anymore. At least not for a little while.
So, we did go house hunting. We were able to see everything we wanted to see which was wonderful. I was, however, surprised after walking through the home I though was more than perfect for us. We nixed it before even walking out the door.
I'm grateful we were able to go and narrow our list of potentials down to four houses. Now that we know what we want, we are ready to make an offer as soon as Andrew gets his orders. Hopefully this week or next.
An update on the girls. They are as sweet as ever! Kate has made it her job to "wake up" Abby in the morning and in the afternoon after Abby's nap. She goes in and plays with Abby for quite a while most of the time. It usually gives me an extra 30-60 minutes of sleep in the morning, which is so nice, and it makes me so happy to watch and hear my little girls get along so well with each other. Definitely one of the best things in the world is to watch your kids play sweetly with each other.
