OK so I said I would update everyone with what has been happening around here. Basically we have been really busy looking for a small place to buy. We have been to banks, Realtors and all over the place trying to figure out what it is that we should be doing. We don't have much to work with so it seems that we are going to be looking for quite a ways out of the city. Which honestly sucks a lot!! I really would rather be able to find something a bit closer than what we are looking at but what with the housing prices in the city it just doesn't seem possible. So I guess we will be getting a fixer upper of a house and hopefully fixing it up a great deal, what with the help of both of our families, here and there. It is just quite disappointing to think that if we would have bought a house last year we could have actually bought a really great place and that if we don't find a place we can afford we will be paying $1200 in this place which is more than a mortgage!! So infuriating.
So if anyone has any great housing advice to give us, please just let us know.
Other than that we haven't been doing too much, Lucian is getting sicker by the hour. Sadly I think we are going to be staying home this weekend, Brandon and have planned to head out to GP on Friday but things aren't looking to promising with the little man.
Well I guess I will update again soon when I have more interesting things to talk about, or just things that I think might be interesting!! HEe hee hee.

House advice, well i dont think there really is to much advice other than get a house inspection. go to lots of banks and get the pre approval crap. it helps in the long run, that way you aren't finding the place you want and not knowing if you can afford it. some banks are better than others for rates and such, and if you are first time buyer ask banks if there are any grants you can apply for. but i think thats all i can think of right now. good luck!
