Too much going on...

Wow, it's been an absolutely insane couple of months. To recap:

• I got a list of 6 Classes to complete as Pre-Req's for my MBA program (2 need to be done by Sept.)
• We put an offer on a condo in May - set to close in June
• Our Lender almost died in a car accident
• Our Realtor started getting really sick
• Our initial closing date keeps getting set back (all in all about a month)
• The underwriter catches a problem with the condo that would preclude us from getting funding.
• The sellers inform us that they knew about it when we placed the offer - but were hoping no one would catch it.
• We rescind the offer on the condo and start looking again - back to square one.
• Abby has her birthday - not at the location we'd planned.
• We move out of our place into my parents in Moroni (an additional hour from work).
• We find a place that we like but it is very small.
• We can't place an offer on the new place untill the owners of the condo sign to release us from the previous sales contract - that takes a few weeks.
• My birthday comes around.
• Condo owners finally sign - we place offer on new place.

Hopefully that explains why we haven't been very good recently about blogging.

Other than all of that we're actually doing pretty well. Abby is as cute as ever - not only is she running everywhere, but she is talking now too. She says things like bubbles, ball, dadda, mamma, cheese (although this is more of a hiss), book, hi, etc. She also does the signs for dog, up, etc.

She has also recently discovered her belly button. She is quite intrigued by it and seems to think that everyone else is/should be as well. So whenever she meets someone new she says "hi", waves, pulls up her shirt, sticks her finger in her belly button and smirks. As soon as we can capture a picture of it we'll be sure to post it.

Thanks to everyone for all the love and support through all of this - we love all of you.
