Closing Time

So ... what have we been up to in the last while since I posted? As you can imagine, we're still so excited that we are finally finished enough to get the mortgage. There's been a flurry of activity in the last week and a half getting papers all together and signing everything. We've both met with our lawyer and the banker (twice). After all that running around - today is our official closing date! I feel like we are entering the world of the grown ups after playing around with this line of credit stuff for too long.

According to the bank we should receive our last cheque from them by Monday, and our first actual mortgage payments start in two weeks. I am so glad we got this all straightened out before Baby M is due to arrive.

Other than that, not too much house-related has been happening. We seem to have lost our motivation ;) Peter is actually hard at work building Baby M's crib so the rest of the house projects have been pushed aside for a while. This weekend my goal is to finish caulking the trim in the nursery. Then all that's left will be to paint the trim and wash the floor and the room will be good to go. Not any too soon, either, considering June is coming very quickly!
