I just loaded the baby into the car and headed out to run lots of errands. I have arrived at my first destination and realized I am wearing my fuzzy slippers. The fact that i am in shorts makes it painfully obvious.
Oh! I just remembered my dream from last night. It was really strange and random. H and I were trying to find secret places for ST while traveling the country with our families in an RV. He bought me a miniature hippopotamus that would only be 2 feet long when fully grown. It kept biting me. And we left O with my mom so we could play with the hippo. Then I really had to pee and couldn't find a toilet...so I woke up to go to the bathroom.
The hippo part of this dream made me laugh so much I almost woke the sleeping baby in my arms.

Sooooo... did you get out of the car?
I love wearing my fuzzy slippers around the house. I'm in socks literally 0% of the time I'm home, so if it's cold, I put on my slippers. One time we had people coming over and H told me it was inappropriate for me to be wearing my slippers. I told him if someone legit has a problem with me wearing slippers in my own home, they're really not welcome in there to begin with.

My first stop was the bank drive through, so NBD, and I'm now parked and waiting in a parking lot a friend who is giving us their baby backpack carrier. But I haven't decided yet if Im going to get out of the car to go into the music store to pick up DS1's clarinet or leave it until later.

Thursday afternoon already, almost Friday!
Had planned to go to the library this morning and then to visit a friend. LO slept in after a quick meal and bum change, so we skipped story time. But that ended up giving us extra time for the friend visit, so a double win!
I hope to grill for supper and go for a run, bike ride, or both later. It is a beautiful day here!
Busy week at work for me, which is a nice change of pace.
H and I have been talking a lot and more seriously about selling our house this summer and taking over my mom's house. I'm getting really excited. I always dreamed of fixing up my mom's house and with the potential profits on our house we're going to have more than enough money to make it amazing.
So we've made a list of the last few projects we need to do at our house to make it really desirable for buyers. My H thinks we've over-renovated our house and I'm beginning to wonder if I should have scaled back on the finishes, but of course I had no idea the market would shoot up as much as it has in the past 2.5 years and that we'd be in this house such a short time.
Anyways, my cousin just accepted an offer on his house for $35K over their asking price. Their house is 500sqft smaller than ours and definitely not as nice, so we are really excited to see how much we'll get.
I've never sold a house before so I don't really know where to start other than getting a realtor.
Anyone have advice? Also, does anyone know anything about transferring a house title to a family member?
I would definitely talk to a lawyer and accountant and find out about any gift tax implications.
I was definitely thinking a real estate lawyer and accountant would be good to see the best way to handle it to reduce taxes. As an aside, she doesn't own her house outright so we will have to get our own loan and it wouldn't be a gift. I have been reading that there are a lot of restrictions on non-arm's length real estate transactions, so I just know it's not going to be as simple as a normal home sale.

We just sold our house. We had our realtor do a walk through and she gave us a list of improvements we should do before listing. For example
Our roof was 15 yrs old with a life of 25yrs old. So to spruce that up she recommended a roof tune up which cost $500 and just means a roofer goes up and does minor patching and repairs. She also recommended we repainted our deck since the deck looked really old and messy unpainted. It was worth it.
If you have the option of moving first it's usually better for selling if your house is empty or if it's staged. Your home will sell faster then if you live in it. But not sure if that's an option for you.
Your realtor will know how to change the title of your relatives home or at least point you in the right direction.
It's 4:15 and I'm halfway finished with my 1st beer. Normally I don't even crack one open until closer to 6. DH won't be home for dinner or bedtime. C has only taken 1 20 minute nap today and is refusing to go down now. I'd just keep him up until bedtime but I'm not sure he can handle another 4 hours. And I would really like to get some more yard work done but the back yard is too wet to let him crawl around.
I have video of P walking! 30 minutes ago he decided to let go and start doing it. He's been going back and forth from chair to chair to me to DH and laughing like a mad man. He's so proud of himself and I'm seriously all welled up.
How do I get video from my phone to here on tapatalk?

I wanna see!! I usually just select a video the same way I select a photo... But I typically use the videos my phone saves from instagram posts, which are 15 seconds long. I'm not sure if it works as easily with long videos or not. This is from iphone to tapatalk.

Aww, go P! Post videos the same way you post pictures.
I'll try as soon as I get my phone battery more charged up again.
