Life with the new baby

Life continues with the new baby.  My sister and I live next door to each other so in our innocent ignorance, we thought we would be fine in these places for a couple of years.  But then we started getting all the stuff we neeeded to rais the baby.  we of course needed 2 of everything so that we would not need to cart stuff back and forth.  This is all well and good except that we have no room in our apartments.  N and J have a small one bhedroom apartment and T and I have a 2 bedroom apartment.  I literally have a path from my front door through the living room into the kitchen to the back door.  around this path is baby stuff.  A swing, a bouncy chair, exersaucer, music thingy, pad for the baby to lay on on the floor-and then add in all the furniture we have for our own comfort and you have total chaos.

So, what are we doing about this?  We are looking for a house.  We need 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a man cave.  We have looked at three and only one works for us and actually, I fell in love with the house.  We are taking the guys over to see it tomorrow so I hope they like it as much as I do.  The other three think we should look at 6-10 houses before making a decision but my opinion is, if this is the right house, snatch it up now before someone else does.  Besides that there are not 6 houses on the market that even meet the criteria to go look at.  Why waste time on ones that don't fit the very basics such as location and price.

I need to make some calls today on movers so I will get off here so I can.

Please stay tuned for more of my saga!
