Homes and babies...

So... on a whim, Kyle and I decided to go down to Lemoore Real Estate on Friday to see what they had to rent or buy. We're so sick of where we live, and are sooooo ready to be in a bigger, nicer place, and in a better neighborhood. Well, we had no clue if we would qualify to buy a home, but figured it's not going to hurt anything to check. Well, we met with this awesome realtor (with a great southern accent) who set us up an appointment with Kings Mortgage, and we met with them yesterday... and we're going to buy a house!

We went and looked at a four houses yesterday, ruled one out, and really liked the other three, but two of them already have offers on them, so we're pretty much ruling those two out. So, we have a good potential from yesterday, and then looked at two others today, and really liked one of them. We're still going to look more, of course, but we've already found a couple potentials. There are still many more steps to go before we actually buy a house, but it's so exciting to actually be looking and considering this! Hopefully we'll get everything taken care of in the next few months, but we're not in a big rush.

It's so crazy to be talking about homes, because of waiting for so long for Kyle to get a good job. After struggling to get by for so many months, we feel so blessed, and we're so thankful for everything God is doing in our lives! We would appreciate your prayers (the few of you who read this) that we would find a home in our price range, and that we'll be wise in our decisions.

Another thing you could be praying for (the short version)... Kyle and I are wanting to start a family, and have been trying for many months. For whatever reason, it hasn't worked yet. I have now been put on fertility medications, which was a huge, emotional trial for me. It's been a rather hard journey for us, with so many ups and downs, and rising hopes, and negative tests... and so on. We both need patience in this, we both need to rely fuly on God and His timing, and I need prayer for emotional stability in all this! Needless to say, this has been a very hard thing for me/us to deal with and sort through, and something we never thought we would have to face. Thanks for your prayers and your friendship!
