My baby turns 3 today. I love her just the way she is at this very moment...playing in her bath with her new bathtub crayons, but I miss her being a baby and needing me for everything. I love how she walks up to me for no reason and hugs me and says "I love you, Mommy! You're the best!" She's so forgiving and understanding...when I apologize to her she always says "It's ok, Mommy." She's an amazing little girl and our lives are forever better by being her parents.

There's a reason...

...that I haven't blogged in over a month! Gasp! In the past few week, Stephen and I decided that NOW is the time to buy our first home. We are super excited and very nervous all at the same time (I would say I'm nervous, Stephen...not so much!). The house pictured above is the house that we made an offer on this morning. It's got everything that we want plus some other perks (like a covered back patio!). It sits on a cul-de-sac and has a fenced in back yard for Paige to play in. The interior's "bones" are good, it just needs some decorating TLC. I'll post more pictures of it once we know our offer has been accepted. The sellers have until 11 am on Saturday morning to respond. I think I'll just be sick for 48 hours straight! Please forgive me for being an absent blogger...I'll try to be back now!
