Sean bought a house! After a week of looking and the threat of another offer on the table, Sean quickly acted to put down an offer and it was accepted. We are still waiting for the relocation company to disclose the assessed value of our house and have an inspection done on the new house but hopefully all this will happen soon so we can complete the conditions and close on the house. It is sounding like we would take possession sometime between Dec. 6-16th. The current owners are being very accommodating and will try to vacate as soon as they can so we can move up and get settled. It seems like a long time away but I suppose it is only a month. I love the house and can't wait to actually step inside. There are 5 bedrooms, a rec room, a fenced backyard and the ensuite bathroom is bigger and better then our current bathroom!


We are doing well and days are going by but it is startling to realize Sean has only been gone 11 days. I think the kids being sick has helped to slow down the days. Speaking of which, I had Aiden at the Dr. today and he was wondering about Strep so they took a swab and we should find out by Wednesday. He was able to eat dinner today and seemed much more lively although every now and then he would moan, "my throat hurts." Caileigh spiked a fever this afternoon and I found her asleep on the couch. She perked up after Tylenol and is sleeping soundly now. Mikayla is slowly getting better and hasn't had a fever today at all.
Better run, tomorrow comes quicker then I would like...............
