This time last year

we got our positive pregnancy result!!! I would put up a picture, but I'm too lazy to turn on the other computer. That and the fact that really, all pregnancy tests look the same.

It feels like only yesterday I saw those two lines come up. But strangely it also feels like a lifetime ago. So much has happened in that one year. In the last 365 days we've:

* Bought our own house, well townhouse to be specific

* Celebrated our 6 year 'going out' anniversary, and also one year of marriage

* Hubby changed jobs and with that a slight role change

* I took on more responsibility at work and started team leading some shifts

* Convinced hubby to like lentils (well legumes in general)

* Only had one holiday, for only 4 days or so. Must have more and longer holidays in the next 365 days I think.

And how has my little Cherub thanked me? By continuing to wake up two hourly overnight. Thank God he's cute and thank you thank you thank you coffee making companies. I HEART YOU!!

EEEKKKKK!!!!

Our landlord rang yesterday and said we could look at the new carpet tomorrow. He also mentioned that his colleagues think he's crazy to settle with us and should go to market. The husband said we're still super keen/love the place etc. He's a pretty good guy so we're 99% certain he'll let us buy without going to market. I just hope he doesn't get money hungry and stab us in the back.

We pretty much have a verbal contract... he said 'the place is yours for XX dollars' so hopefully he remembers that. He's been nothing but helpful so hopefully that continues, or I'll be crushed! Fingers crossed anyway.  Darn long weekend making everything take longer! The sooner the contract is drawn up and signed the happier I'll be.
