Its Friday, please save the drama!

Well there is more drama on this house! Yesterday Jason called me at work and the sellers and their Realtor are trying to prove that we weren't pre-approved for the original offer. They have no grounds for this! Our lender and their lawyer said that we are totally on the right side of the law and these people cannot prove this and we were pre-approved! They also came back and said they want us to pay $5000 over the appraisal again. We are trying to work with them but if they get to be pains and the asses again we are walking away, FOR GOOD! These sellers are relentless and NEVER going to sell their house if they are so annoying! I have never heard of sellers being THIS awful and picky over a few thousand dollars, of course we want the best deal and a fair one at that! This is supposed to be a buyers market! (Wouldn't you know this is the only house we have remotely liked in our whole search? Hey we are totally picky and don't want a fixer upper with two small children!)

Anyways, enough drama, its FRIDAY! I am in my classroom, which is all set up now thanks to my co-worker helping me move all my furniture! Now to tackle those horrendous closets!

The boys were so cute this morning! Grayson woke up and wanted to watch Star Wars. Then both the boys wore Star Wars shirts today and tennis shoes. Grayson wanted to go show daddy his tennis shoes but he had already left and settled on showing Mimi! While we were back there he saw football, which he called basketball, on the news, and had to crawl right in her bed to watch! He even gave Jason and I high fives and then kept saying "High five" because we were so proud he sat down in his chair. (He loves to stand up on the kitchen chairs when watching a show, much to mommy and daddy's dismay. We are terrified he's going to fall, which he already has several times!)

I told Corbin that if he is good today at school, I am taking them to the Jumpy Gym by my school after work. I thought it would be a nice treat since we have been back at work/preschool. I told him he needed to be good and have his listening ears on. To which he replied "Mommy, my listening ears are already on!" Hillarious!

We are going to have a busy weekend because Daddy has a Karate tournament tomorrow. We are going to make him a special pie for dessert! :) I have a strong feeling our boys are going to be air punching and karate chopping a lot more than usual this weekend!

I just remembered too that our baby Corbin is 3 and a half today!!!! Yay! Wow I cannot believe we are halfway to having a 4 year old!

YES!

Well yesterday Jason called and said the sellers broker was trying to fight for our earnest money. They were not entitled to it since we terminated the contract on time. So we finally told them a price we felt comfortable with take it or leave it. The sellers had already had a house they were going to rent so they were kind of stuck. Jason told me this morning that they accept the price we had come up with and felt comfortable with.

We are moving! Fingers crossed all goes well! :) We close on the 22nd! Yes, you Austin teachers know thats the first day of school! EEK! Luckily as a pre-k teacher the kids only come for half day the first 4 days of school.

The boys and I started back at work/preschool, (as Corbin calls it) today. I had to come in and register pre-k students and am going to work on my classroom as well the next two days. Corbin was so excited to be in the Busy Bee's classroom and he is thrilled because he is potty trained. He feels like a big boy now! :) Grayson was a little upset, he is in the same room as last year, and kept looking for "Michael." I miss our boys a lot and have to stay until 6 tonight because its pre-k late registration night. My mom just called me because she picked them up for me and said the boys had a great day! What a relief!

Corbin and I made homemade soft pretzels last night that were devoured in less than an hour! Everyone in my family loved them! I also made an amazing quesadilla, (summer succotash quesadillas with Mmmm sauce, it was soo Mmmm!) from the Peas and Thank you blog. I also bought her new cookbook recently and that's where I got the pretzel recipe a few other recipes we have enjoyed lately! :)
