5K

I am running a 5K tomorrow!  This will be my first official 5k, although I run that distance often.  The girls will be in Aurora with Joe's family.  The weather should be great.  I'm sure it will be interesting.  As most of you know, Pappy found the event and is also running.

No Termites

That is all.  I am just buried in the whole loan, insurance, negotiating, moving process right now.  Next step is the appraisal. 

Michaela's Sensory Processing

If anyone is interested in reading more about  SPD and why Michaela goes to occupational therapy once a week.  There is a lot of info available.

Getting Closer

We have worked it out so far to make it beneficial for us(Joe and I) to go ahead and put a new roof on the house.  The seller is very motivated and doing everything within their means to make it affordable and reasonable for us to purchase and improve this home.  I am happy with the way things are going so far!  Next is the termite inspection.  My realtor told me that there are two kinds of houses in Florida: The kind that has termites and the kind that is going to get termites.  Oh yay.  Just because hurricanes aren't quite enough to spook a buyer from Ohio.  Actually, termites are not a deal breaker.  I will keep you updated.

Michaela's Birthday

I have endless ideas for Michaela's birthday. 

She will be wearing 4t shirts and 3t pants(no shirts with elastic please)
The girls can always use cute socks
Anything with:
My Little Pony

Tinkerbell
Dora and/or Deigo
She would LOVE some nice nightgowns
She wants Pony Gals (saw them at Target)
She needs more bathtub paints
She is a fan of Marvel comic Heroes and Batman and Robin
She would like Moxie girls
"We did it" Dora doll
my littlest petshop toys
Polly Pockets
DVD's:
The Chipmunks 2 The squeequel
Shrek 3
Episodes of Dora that include her baby brother and sister
I bet she would love a hand held mirror
Any stupid toy you see advertised on Nickalodeon
She likes books
She can solve puzzles for 3-5 year olds
She needs more washable crayons



That is a good start.  If you need more ideas (lol)  let me know.  Im sure I could come up with many more.

Yikes!!

We had the house inspected today.  It needs a new roof!  Now we wait on an estimate to see what the next move is...

New Home

Well everyone, we are under contract to purchase our first home.  If everything goes well, we will close October 20th.  We are excited and nervous and everything that goes along with buying a house.  Wow.
