We bought a house :-)

I'm very pleased to report that we have bought our first home! I'd post a picture but they took it off MLS before I thought to save one. I guess we'll have to take our own pictures once we move in. We are staying in Airdrie and even get to stay in the same ward. We did consider moving back to Calgary but, for the price we paid, we would have had to settle for something at least 30 years old (needing lots of work) with huge condo fees and not in any neighborhoods we like. The one we found will be just perfect for us and we could happily fit two or three munchkins (when we DO decide to have more kids) without feeling imprisoned in our home. I love the fact that it's only 2 years old, has a nice big kitchen (to store tupperware in, of course) and backs onto a nice soccar field instead of a road. Plus we'll be SOOOOOOOOO excited to set up a room for the baby, whom my brother has named "Guillermo". I told him there's no way the baby will keep that name once he or she is born, especially if it's a girl, but for now it IS kind of cute.


Speaking of baby, I'm starting to have a little preggo tummy! Here's a picture Kevin took of me at the beginning of May:

I'm a bit bigger now, but you get the picture. I'm 17.5 weeks along now and I can hardly wait until we go for the ultrasound in mid June. Hopefully we'll be able to get some cute pictures from that one!

We get posession on the 30th of June. With any luck we'll be moved in the first week of July :)
