Two days ago Spencer received a job offer in Waco with an ear, nose, and throat clinic. (Waco ENT) Yesterday, we started the mortgage process and picked a realtor. Tomorrow we go down and start looking at homes. Needless to say- it's been a crazy couple of days!
The company Spencer will be working for sounds really good. They really wanted him so they created this job for him. They gave him an excellent offer! Most importantly, we feel good about it. He is very excited about this company and hopes to help them expand their practice.
How do I feel??? I'm feeling all sorts of things. Excitement about buying a home. Nervous about all that a home entails. Dread about the upcoming trips to Waco and towing TWO darling ENERGETIC children through dozens of other peoples houses. Happy to be moving to a smaller place. Apprehensive about driving two hours each way for orthopedic and opthamalogy appointments. Sad that this will once again take us further away from our extended family. Peaceful knowing that Lily will be able to continue care at the Scottish-Rite Hospital. Stressed about everything that has to happen to make this all possible while also continuing all of our current obligations. Once again, and most importantly, knowing that this is the right move for our family.
The next few weeks will be really busy so I won't be posting much. Hopefully, the next post will be a picture of the house we want to buy. :)

CONGRATULATIONS! So exciting that you guys are moving out of the "student phase" - I'm coveting a little bit!:) Good luck with all the busy house stuff, hope you find one you like!
I've been wondering what was next for you guys. Congratulations on the job offer and best wishes.
Congratulations! I hope it's a great next move for your family.
CONGRATULATIONS Spencer and Shree. I know you really had your fingers crossed for this job and I'm glad it worked out. We love you guys!
That is awesome! We are actually in the process of buying a house too, no fun. We are staying in El Paso for another 3 years so we decided to buy instead of rent. Best wishes and congrats on the awesome job. Also glad that the surgery turned out well.
Oh, my goodness! This has all happened so fast! I am excited for you, though, it's fun, too! We love you!
Congrats Stirlands! Celeste and I are very excited that Spencer has gotten such a good job and that you are going to get a house! We love you!
That's so exciting! I hope you don't mind I linked to your blog in a post about Lily and the Scottish Rite Hospital. I hope we'll get to see you once you're settled in in Waco, too!
