Last night our house became officially for sale. The paperwork was signed and the sign went up in the yard. For some reason is doesn't appear to be on-line yet, but I hope that is fixed soon.
There are days I feel quite torn about this decision. On one hand I do want a different house and being close to family and friends will be nice. On the other hand, this is our first house. This is where we lived shortly after getting married. This is where we were when I got pregnant and had our first child. This is Peanut's only home. I feel sentimental towards this house. Plus we have quite awesome neighbors and we are sad to leave them.
The house could be for sale for a long time. I hope it sells soon because keeping it neat and clean with a 1 1/2 year old is not easy. Every where I look there seem to be more and more houses for sale. I hope we aren't too late and the market is getting flooded with houses. This is such a stressful adventure. At least the house is clean and neat. It looks pretty good. Why didn't we do all this 5 years ago? Seems dumb to wait until you sell your house to fix it up. We are vowing to not do that in the next one. I'm not sure everything will get fixed up the day we move in, but maybe we can keep it a little more organized.
So I hope to keep this updated as we go along our real estate journey. Please wish speedy sale thoughts to us.

Good luck! No chance you're moving to the other side of the state, is there? ;-)
Why are you moving? Did you finally get tired of picking up the walnuts in the back yard?
We want to be closer to family and friends. All of our family is in MO and a lot of our friends are too. We like this house though, but wish it were closer to them. There aren't any walnuts in the back, only hedge apples.
