Well, as if having a baby wasn't grown up enough, Josh and I have decided to buy a house, too. Now we can officially say that we are totally adults! :) We have even found the house, which was a total God thing. At this point, we plan on buying the house I lived in during college. Stacey's parents decided they wanted to sell it, and we jumped on it! It saves them the hassle and cost of listing it with a realtor. And I love the house. I love the layout; how open it is and airy. And it will be so much nicer then living in a duplex! No neighbors through the wall, no neighbor's annoying dogs, and way more space! Plus, the master closet is huge! :) We won't close on it for several months still; Stacey and Shelley are still living there. But we are already planning nursery stuff... and we are going to have to fence the yard, so we are trying to price that, too. Not to mention getting the loan and that sort of stuff. Speaking of which, I am very excited about all this... but I am VERY nervous about paying for it! As long as I don't think about it. If I think about it...
Baby update... I am officially 12 weeks now, and still feeling sick. But not as bad as it was. So hopefully I'm on the tail end of things! We also got our first baby outfit; Ruth bought an adorable turtle sleeper. She couldn't resist and I don't blame her, it's adorable. Now if only I could believe that I'm really going to have something that fits in it soon....

I've been meaning to write and wish you and Josh congrats, but I guess at this point it's congrats times 2!! A house and a baby - wow, you guys are sure acting like grown-ups now! You've got to post a pic of the first baby outfit. Hope the rest of the pregnancy is a breeze and you are able to enjoy it! Oh, and don't mind the random responses from my dad!
Yay on buying your first house! That's so exciting. Somehow it feels so much cooler when you OWN the house, getting to decorate it and fence the yard and stuff (even though yes, it costs money to do those things!). But what a great investment. Congrats on finally becoming a "real" adult :)
