It'll Be Ours!

July is proving to be a busy one! Mostly great, too. We found out that, after negotiations we do have the house on Oxbridge and we will close on the 18th! Hoo-rah!
We also have to get a few things fixed before we move in, but we're hopeful that it will all work out (ever the optimist). Zachery hasn't seen the inside yet, but I've driven by there often and pointed it out to him, saying "do you want to live there?". ;)

As we are happy with all of this, it is a big job as well. Moving mainly, but fixing the basement and some electrical stuff. I can hardly believe we've been here 6 years in our lil' apartment! Buying our first home is making me feel all grown up.

Also looming ahead is Avery's next surgery. She has a lot of appointments this month and I am so grateful for all those who have so graciously agreed to watch Zach for me. Thank you! Avery had an appt. today with the cardiologist and Avery has a leaky aortic valve (all valves leak a bit), but hers is mild to moderate and she needs it to work well, having one ventricle. It just means her heart has to work harder. If it looks like it needs to be stretched during her heart cath, then they'll do that on the 21st. Onward to Aug. 7th!

Renea, Let me know if you need me to watch Zach again! I would love to help out. He is such a sweetie! Congrats on your new home again!

So glad the house is going through! You deserve it after apartment living for 6 years, and not even complaining about it either.
Hope all goes well with Avery's appointments!

Renae, that little house of yours is beautiful. And I close on the 18th as well, which makes me feel bonded to you all somehow :). Quite a year for your little family. Miss you guys.
