Ok, so to say this year has sucked is the understatement of the year.
Lets start off the year by trying to get the house ready to be sold. Things go well and we have 15 showings in the first week and an offer by the end of the week. In the meantime we have found our perfect home that is for sale by owner. Everyone agrees to end of May as our closing but with the understanding that it will most likely be end of April. After this, it all falls apart. Our buyers demand money toward fixing the garage & carport roof and refuse to move up the closing date. The seller of the house we want is having trouble with the house he is buying so he threatens to back out on us at the end of April. Here we are, I am 6 months pregnant, and in fear of being homeless. At the last minute we started looking at other houses but it all fell into place and we were able to get everything worked out. Settled May 25 and everything went well moving in. Except that they took all the window hardware and left the house disgusting. So we made them give us $$ for the hardware and they were ticked! Needless to say, these people were jerks!!!
In the midst of all of this turmoil, we ended up having E in the hospital for Bronchiolitis. She was in for 3 days and it was horrible! Luckily she didnt need an IV or the O2 mask, just blow by.
Then in July, 2 weeks before my due date, I went into labor with baby #2! After 8 hours of labor and 9 pushes, O was here! We thought the hardest thing about her birth was picking her name. The next morning is when we found out about the DS. The next few months were a daze. In the midst of that daze, M wrecked the car which took forever to fix.
Then this past weekend we ended up in the hospital with O for Pneumonia. Just got out yesterday.
Needless to say we are super excited to say good riddens to 2007! What a horrific year, but I guess it could always be worse. I just pray our luck is better for 2008!
