once we'd established that a) i wasn't pregnant and b) that the cg wasn't going to strangle me for waking him up at 4am to drive across town to buy an unnecessary pregnancy test, i lay in bed and thought about how happy i am with everything in my life right now. despite the unreasonable hour, for a while we talked about G and how bright and wonderful she is. her development amazes me on a daily basis. she can count, she can sing bits of nursery rhymes and she can put together words to make meaningful "sentences". we can actually have conversations now. they may not be the best conversations i've ever had but they are definitely not the worst and it's so nice to have this kind of interaction with her.
as mentioned in my previous post, we are finally buying our first home in the uk. i haven't really mentioned this to anyone yet because it all seemed too good to be true but hopefully the deal will be completed in a few weeks and i can stop being paranoid that something bad will happen and the sale will fall through. the house we are buying is conveniently the house we have been living in for the last year and a half. after looking for a local property for 3 or 4 months we realised that whenever we walked away from a potential purchase we compared it unfavourably with the home we were already comfortable in. so, after a bit of a discussion, we sent a letter to our landlord asking him if he fancied selling the place. to our surprise he responded pretty quickly saying he was interested and basically it's all been a bit of a whirlwind from then on. today we had the mortgage valuator in and he said the house is in super condition and the price is fair so we are feeling pretty good about the whole thing. i'm hoping for pre-christmas ownership but we might have to wait until the New Year. it's all very exciting though.
if it wasn't for the fact that my husband will never go near me again for fear of having another pregnancy scare i would say everything is pretty damn perfect!
