Life changes/ 23 weeks


It is so crazy how life happens! Keith and I decided that we wanted to buy a condo and so last Thursday we met with my uncle who is a Realtor to look at what is out there. We found a few places to go look at Friday morning. Once we went through the first one we knew we wanted to live there. It is a 2 bedroom 2 bath condo. There is about 1100 square feet in the condo and then 600 ft storage in the basement. It was everything we were looking for at an amazing price. We got our pre-approval for financing and got an offer to the sellers Saturday morning. 

On Monday we got the news that there was someone else with an offer in but we were in the backup position. We were a little worried that we wouldn't get the place. Then on Tuesday afternoon we got the news that the other potential buyer backed out and that the place was ours. We waited till Wednesday to see if they would counter offer and they didn't!

It is so crazy how fast everything happened! We are so excited though. We are just waiting to finish our financing and sign the papers. We should be in the condo by the middle of July! We decided that there must be a good reason why things have been going so well with this process so far.

I was thinking about it this week and it has been three years since I graduated high school and moved out to Utah. I would have never thought that I would be in the place that I am now. Now that I am going through it I would never want anything different. I have such a wonderful husband who takes such good care of me. He will be such a wonderful father. I am so excited for all the adventures we are going to have together.

Last time I mentioned that I was having issues and needed to see a cardiologist. I had my appointment yesterday and he said it sounds like my SVT (a link to explain it better than I can http://www.webmd.com/heart-disease/tc/supraventricular-tachycardia-overview) has reoccurred. As of right now it is not affecting the baby or the pregnancy. As long as the baby is doing well I don't need to have surgery right now. We will just need to monitor the baby very closely for any changes.

Tomorrow I go in and get a heart monitor to wear for the next month so they can try and get a good reading of the SVT attack. The doctor seemed to think that everything will go well. Of all the heart problems out there this one can be easily fixed thankfully. If everything with the baby, pregnancy and delivery go well they are looking at December to go in and do an ablation just like I had before.
