Spring Break Recap

Spring break was so much fun. Now I have such a stressful week that almost all of the relaxation of spring break has been erased, but it was still a fun week.

Monday and Tuesday were taken up with Mike's appointments, one to the allergist and one to the dentist. On Wednesday, despite not hearing from the bank about our loan pre-approval, we went to look at a house. The house wasn't good for us, but the real estate agent was very nice and knowledgeable about the area we were looking in. We met with him on Thursday. In the space of two hours we had signed a buyers' agency contract, applied for and been pre-approved for a mortgage through Coldwell Bankers, and were walking off with a handful of fliers for houses around the area. It made my head spin. We toured some more homes on Saturday but we're still looking for the right house.

On Friday I had the most fun. I went to visit my friend Meghan, and we went to the park. I was shocked at how much P could do there! I figured he'd just look around at the people and scenery, but he was so active. He walked around giggling, climbed stairs, went on the baby swing, even went down some slides. Meghan's son is almost exactly on year older than P, and it was so cool to see where P might be in a year (although her son is clearly gifted intellectually, so it might not be a fair comparison).

This week is going to be insanely busy with tests and meetings. I'd love nothing more than to go tour houses every night, but that's not going to happen. Luckily next week I have a personal day on Monday and all-day training on Tuesday and Wednesday, so it'll be a short week. I can't wait until summer.
