Irey didn't have her surgery this past Monday like we were planning!
WHY?
Because my baby who never gets sick... got sick. So this pushed surgery back for four weeks. New surgery date is December 2nd! But she has to stay healthy for these next for weeks in order to have surgery. Conclusion, I don't plan on it till spring. Haha ok that is really pessimistic. I am just struggling with all this. It is such a emotional roller coaster ride I am on. We had set 4 surgery dates and we have been trying to get it schedules since May. I know surgery is the right thing for her but as her mom the closer it gets the more anxiety and fear I feel. It's just knowing whats to come and how hard it will be to see my baby with tubes in her mouth and wires hooked up to her. I keep preparing myself emotionally for something that is starting to feel like it's never going to happen. I feel so let down every time it falls through. So once it is all said and done I will feel overjoyed and SO relieved!
In a way it was a blessing in disguise that the surgery didn't happen because we ended up MOVING this past week...
We have been trying to sell our condo and had A LOT of response, just not the right number we were looking for. So we decided to rent it out and take on the responsibility of a rental property. We listed it on KSL and 2 days later we had renters signing a contract. It was just so meant to be. It couldn't have worked out better.
Now we are living in Mark and Jackie's basement (aka: mom and dad). They were kind enough to let us invade all there extra space. People keep asking, how it going... Well it's been awesome. It's like going to stay at a really nice hotel that you never want to leave, except we don't have to leave... yet anyways. It has been a big blessing for me more then anyone because I was always feeling so lonely while Brandon was working so much but now there is always someone home to keep Irey and I company.
The goal is to find a house, put my salon in it, move in, and make more babies. Yes in that order and the more babies part isn't nessessarily soon... this is more like a 3 to 5 year plan. We hope to find a home with in the next few months and have already started looking. There is a few that I like and one that I LOVE but no one can understand why... it needs a little elbow grease but I can see the end result in my mind!
So that is the current status on the Blackwell family! Keep checking back for more update on the surgery date and the house hunt! And any tips in what are something you don't typically think of when buying a house but you wish you did... let me know!
