And The Race Is On...

Which will it be???? Baby or house? Baby or house? Which one will win the race?


I can't believe how long it has been that I've been saying, "Yeah, we are supposed to close next week!" There are just too many individuals involved in purchasing a home - especially when it is a HUD home - this whole process is just taking forever! Of course, I'm sure I'm not being one bit impatient, considering that I'm not sure if I will or will not have a place for our baby to sleep when she comes! It is just frustrating; anything requested on our end has taken less than an hour to deliver to the right hands. We do everything right away, and then it takes "a week or so" to complete whatever stage our title company, or lender, or underwriter, or HUD agent is in. I also hate being in the dark so much. Why is it that the purchasers can't just call up the sellers and ask what stage they are in, or how much longer they expect things to take? Okay, I know the answer to that, but it is still frustrating that we can't talk to certain people without going through the proper channels. Blah Blah Blah - I just want to be home!!

P.S. Yes, that is our actual house, but not our actual baby. In case you were wondering...

I was wondering about the baby. I thought "McKenna wouldn't possibly put a big pink bow on her head." So thanks for clarifying. I hope the house wins too.

I didn't see pictures of the outside! I'm so excited for you guys!! I hope the house wins too! Moving with a new born is not so fun... although moving being pregnant isn't so fun either... from experience! lol!
