Molars, Motion, and Markdowns

Andrew is getting both upper first molars at once - OW. He's still managed to remain in pretty good spirits for most of the day. The latest, as evidenced in the three videos: revising and perfecting his technique for descending the stairs, paying homage to the "big blue monster" (aka vacuum) whenever he sees it, and the very symbiotic relationship of playing ball with Dora.



Also, no house news yet. We even planted our St. Joseph in the yard a month or so ago and still nothing. We sign paperwork this afternoon to lower the price (again) to our very bottom line. We have thrown in a conveying refrigerator and alarm monitoring service through April of next year. An offer before Jon has to begin teaching in SC next month would be really, really great and a huge weight off our shoulders. However, we know that with each passing day, I inch closer to life alone with a toddler and two dogs in an obscenely hot part of the world that I am completely and utterly sick of. We are majorly stressed about the house situation now and have vowed not to talk or think about it until Monday so we can enjoy Friday (our 5th anniversary) and the rest of the weekend. All hail the temporary state of complacency!
