so it appears that things are finally starting to come together... hopefully. we've got a town home reserved (bar something weird) in garland, not far from a park and a bus route (for paul to get to school). it's actually a little bigger than our house here, so that's nice too.
speaking of our house here, it's just about ready to put on the market, our goal is still monday, though it may take a little longer to finish some of our projects (ie, paul's repairing our retaining wall out front, and if he finished the stucco on saturday, we'll still have to paint it sometime, but that's okay). i think it'll be okay though. we've already talked to the realtor, and he seems to think it'll sell, and he seems to be realistic what with the market the way it's been lately. we may not really make a profit, but hopefully we'll at least break even.
we're just about ready for baby to come too. the cradle is set up, and there's some clothes out for her, not that we're rushing, but it seemed prudent to get everything out before people start wanting to see our home (especially since afton loves to help with the baby things... it makes for a long, cluttered job, but it's cute). we've still officially got 3 1/2 weeks before she's due, so i figure that means we've got 4 weeks--i'm planning on the 30th, anyone else care to guess?
paul's been working a lot lately, i sure appreciate him! afton's been playing hard, and doing her best to follow daddy at all costs... preferably attached to his leg (he loves it too), she sure misses him while he's at work.
anyhow, that's our little update. i'll try to get more pictures up soon.

take some pictures of your house all ready to sell. i've never seen it!
Well I'm all for the 29th! I don't mind sharing. :D
That's not bad at all. We didn't know where we were going to live till a month and a half before we moved. I'm glad you've got things figured out so you don't have to worry about it with the baby coming. Good luck with all the transitions! It's pretty stressful, but I hope things continue to work out.
How nice for you to get some things finalized. Adam and Mandy's baby is due the 15th so maybe we'll have two new little girls in our family soon. They just moved to a different place last weekend and her nesting instincts has her setting up the nursery even before the kitchen boxes have been unloaded. She doesn't want her little one sleeping in a box!
It's not too late to move up to Salt Lake instead.
Elise! I'm so excited to hear that you're going to be moving nearer. You're officially invited to come to my house for dinner regularly. Of course, we live all the way up in Anna, not exactly convienant. But, all the same, we're excited. Good luck with everything and I hope to see pictures of that baby soon :)
