One Day At a Time

The home inspection was today. Our realtor said it could be a couple days before we hear back from the buyers. The final sale is contingent on the home inspection. The buyer could decide to back out of the contract or come back and request some repairs be made. I met the buyers today and they seemed very sweet. They appeared to be excited about the house and even wanted to know if we would consider selling them our furniture.  

 

With only 25 days between now and then, we have A LOT going on.

May 20 / John David’s Long Coat Ceremony. His parents and sisters will be attending this very special and formal event. He will be presented with his “Doctor’s coat” that will read “John D. Tullos, M.D.” How exciting!

May 21 / Graduation from the University of Mississippi School of Medicine. We have ALL waited a long time for this!

May 22 / Our family and close friends will be celebrating with us DOCTOR John’s official graduation from Medical School. His parents and I have dreamt of what this day of celebration would feel like when we were finally able to say “He MADE it!!”

We heard the baby’s heart beating at 150 BPM last Wednesday. Who knew such a tiny “thump, thump, thump” could sound so heavenly to expectant Mommies and Daddies! Every time we hear it beating away, it just about takes my breath away. Our next appointment is the most exciting of all. May 26 we find out if  this little “tad-pole” is a GIRL or a BOY. John David and I both think it’s a boy for some reason, but everyone else thinks it’s a girl. Either way, we are super excited! Monograms here we come! : )

June 1 / Close on our house @ Whitworth

June 12 / Baby Shower in Jackson hosted by Kristi, Ruth, and Susan. I can’t wait!

June 29 / University of South Alabama Welcoming Party on the USS Battleship.

July 1 / John David begins the first day of the next five years of our lives. Orthopedic Surgery Residency at USA in Mobile.

For now, we are focusing on finishing the sale of this house. One day at a time. We will worry about packing, loading, unloading and unpacking next. We will be accepting ANY and ALL help we can get come moving day! : )

Stay posted, LOTS going on. Will try my best to keep everyone updated as much as I can!
