After 10 months we sold the house

So much has happened since last month.  I have such highs and lows over selling our home that I couldn't bring myself to blog to about it.  The negotiations for sale seemed more like being held hostage in the end.  It was very discomforting. All the joy was taken when they bottom lined with "you have a sale if you come down another $1500.  You can only imagine what we could using the $1500 for.  We are almost that high in overages for the new house and I need to convince my husband to invest in retaining walls for landscaping.  That along with the fence will need to keep the kids safe from the pond and the dog safe as well.  This is part of the frustration from taking a $12000.00 loss from the first purchase agreement that fell through last fall. 

The new house is coming along but we have beat down with meetings and phone calls making sure we have all the required meetings and details worked out.  We are only a week away from scheduling the movers.
My pregnancy has been healthy.  I haven't thrown up since the first day of the 17th week and a gag session about two days ago.  I still think it's a boy, but I may have to eat crow on that one.

Everything seems so busy I hardly have time to put much thoughts down much less work through my thoughts.  I am grateful and exhausted and happy.  I am .
