The house is officially listed with Iowa Realty!!!
I am ready for it to be sold...ready to be on to our next adventure, and be able to celebrate.
The photos were taken today and that was the last thing to get it all listed....now we wait...some more...
While we've been waiting on the house to sell, we've done some looking, cost comparisons, debating, updating of the budget, and some more selling. We're technically not really waiting. We are believing our home is going to sell fast and we are planning for the future. As much as possible, that is.
We've sold our living room furniture. 1. We thought we wanted recliners. Now, we hardly use them because the kids are either trying to play under them, or are running around them and we don't want one of them to fall on the metal piece. 2. They are HEAVY and BULKY, also something we thought we wanted. 3. EVERYTHING goes under them because they recline and we have wood floors there is a larger gap on the bottom. Which means, every toy car or every small toy has at some point claimed it as their hiding spot. When you have more reasons to get rid of something than you do to keep it in our house...it goes...sell, donate or trash. Depending on the size of our next place we have two options/styles of furniture picked out and the color. Basically, we have made a profit selling our furniture and buying new furniture to go towards our next financial goal. Can I get a whoop, whoop...SCORE!
Meanwhile, Kenzlie decided she no longer wants to wear diapers. We've been working on potty training for about two weeks and she has it down. We haven't tried night time yet, we're still working on naps. However, I haven't bought diapers in two weeks and she has done awesome, especially this week, going in to the bathroom on her own. Ahh, the joys of no longer having to buy diapers. Another SCORE for the budget! She picked out her own undies and of course of all the different ones Target has she got Doc McStuffins. She loves her show and doesn't like when Kypton choses to watch something other than, "Doc."
Last night, being the house is cleaned and ready to go we didn't really want a mess, it worked perfect that my Brother and Sister-In-Law invited us to the ICubs game. It was a 1st time for the kids, they did great. It was puppy night so of course Kenzlie was in puppy heaven.
My Sister-in-Law is going to have her baby boy any time now, so I just keep hoping and praying! Kenzlie loves to say his name and Kypton told me last night, "Jenna already had the baby, remember? Paxton." I think he is going to be in for a rude awakening when he doesn't have his Yenna and Uncle G to himself anymore. Another waiting game to throw in the mix.
Do you ever feel like life is all hurry and wait? You can't do one thing until you know what yada, yada, is going to do/happen. It literally makes me crazy some days. I know, I have to let go and trust God. But, seriously, just seriously. Everything always works out the way it is suppose to. I honestly believe that. We may not like that we have to go thru the Valleys to get to the Mountain tops, but man it feels so good when we get there, right?
Hope everyone had a great Summer, and is ready for Football season to start soon..Yahhh Fallll!!!
Love,
The Buchholz's
