And we have a contract

Well, it is not signed yet, but we have come to an agreement on an offer on our house! We are excited and of course very apprehensive. The people are using an FHA loan and we have heard they are pretty particular on inspections. We have no dates yet, the home inspection should be be in a few days, and they want/can close within 45 days (though nothing is in stone yet). Please pray that everything comes together in God's time. We will be heading south as soon as we have some more definite information from the inspection and see what houses we can find. All we can do is put this whole process in God's hands.

Emily is on day 5 of the appetite stimulant, and so far I have not noticed much of a difference, other than she is more sleepy/irritable. She does seem to be digesting the Pediasure faster, but there has not been a large increase in what goes in her mouth. It is so hard not to worry about the amount of food she eats, but I have come to the conclusion that eating is stressful for her, and probably always has been. There has always been so much pressure to get that food in! I am working to make everything involved with eating enjoyable for her (afterall isn't that half of the reason we eat).

We had a little excitement in our area yesterday. A man escaped custody and robbed a bank a few towns over. The girls' school was put on lockdown as a precaution, and as it turns out the police caught the man about a block away from their school. The man crashed into a tree and at that time the school officials had all the kids go into the corner of the room away from windows and huddle up (I am assuming in case the man ran from the car and entered the school). The girls came home knowing it was not a drill. And thankfully Justin decided to keep Luke home from preschool as we might have been right on the same road the man was taking, with the police close behind.
