Guess what, Guess what!!!!

So sorry I have not written lately... So You know I called bank on Tuesday and he said he would call me back Wed. He called me at like 5:15 and said I WAS PRE-APPROVED!!!!!!! So I called my relater and well guess what he was busy that night. So we meet Thursday at 8:15. Put in the offer and then got a call back on Friday night at about 5. They ACCEPTED it!!!! So closing date is Aug. 30th. That date can't come soon enough. I am so excited for me and A. I am already planning on how to do her bedroom.
I just am so proud. You know people look down on you as a unwed mother( and to tell the truth I used to too. I never thought I would be here.). So knowing that I will soon own a home is so exciting and I know this is the best for us. I am so proud to be doing this alone and am able too. I am not on welfare. I get 83 bucks every two weeks from A's dad. I am only on WIC. I have a full time job. I pay for daycare. Yes right now I am at my parents which was nice cause I was able to save money. Yes my mother does watch A after daycare so she is only there for 8 hours instead of 10 and on Saturdays.  Plus with my work hours(10 to 6) she would need to go to a different one as mine closes at 6. Plus I work a lot of overtime on Fridays.

So that's my exciting news. What I have already learned from home buying is its a big waiting game. You wait for the bank to pre-approve, then you wait for an answer on your offer, then you wait for closing date. Wait wait wait!!!!
