My mom is so wonderful! She would do anything for me and my family. She has come to help out twice with, Austin and the baby. Oh and what a difference it is having a helper around. I love my mom and miss her so much... but on the other hand... can I have some privacy please!
The other day I got into the bathroom to take a shower... I put Avery in her travel swing in the bathroom with me... then my mom comes in and asks if she can do her hair while I was taking a shower... oh whatever, Yes... then about two minutes into my nice warm shower Austin comes running in... "I have to POO, right now!"... Ok... so here I am in the shower, should be a time where I can relax and enjoy some quiet, private time... oh no, nice TRY! I just had to laugh with my mom on this one. WE NEED MORE ROOM, MORE BATHROOMS!
This brings me to my next point. Ok since when does a starter home cost 500.000 thousand?? Humm, well here in Issaquah WA! When we moved to Seattle my hubby let me choose where we would get an apartment. I spent a lot of time searching all the little towns right outside of Seattle. I fell in LOVE with Issaquah, it is so beautiful and convenient here. I love the homes, the parks, the people, the schools, the ward, the shopping, but most of all it feels like HOME. I really don't want to move away to a cheaper town. We are determined to make it work, and are looking for a house. Probably a townhome or duplex to start... still expensive, but doable.
Our apartment is just too small. Coming from Utah it seemed big, then we had Avery... not so big now. I think our apartment is very nice... but a 1000 square foot with one bathroom and two bedroom apartment is not going to cut it... We are officially house hunters!
Sorry not very interesting, it's more for me to look back on and read... I have decided to write down whats going on in my life a little more... Blah Blah Blah...
This house is about $500,000... and only 1700 square feet. It's so cute!!
We are going to look at this one today... About $400,000 Townhome... the one on the end.

It was fun reading about what you're up to! So bring on the 'blah blah blah' I want to hear it! :) Good luck looking for a house...I had NO idea they were that much in WA...
The first one is so cute. The town home looks really nice though, too. (that's what we're starting with and I'm super excited... there's a yard but one I don't have to take care of, so cool!) Have fun!!!
Holy freakin' cow--$400,000 for a townhome? Yeah, I'd have to say that you found a nice little expensive area. Not that I can talk, but I'm thinking that's much more expensive than Denver!
I love Seattle, what a bummer that everything costs so darn much! I love that little yellow house it is adorable! It gets my vote though, it has a lot of character!
Well best of luck looking. That sucks that things are soo expensive. Hopefull it all works out. It is so frustrating not being in a house hang in there.
Don't even think about looking outside of the Highlands--and definitely not issaquah!! That would be sad.
