Ofie is doing well, but sadly it doesn't look like Ofie is getting a new house for her birthday. We put our final offer in 2 1/2 weeks ago, and were supposed to hear the next day, no word. Our realtor contacted us today to let us know that she still has heard nothing from them despite her efforts to contact them, but the house has been relisted as a "new" listing online at $22,000 more than it was orginally listed at. They never notified any of the people who had offers on the house to tell us our offers were rejected, they just relisted at a higher price.
We just hope the bank loses in this deal, because it would serve them right. So after nearly 3 months of waiting we're giving up on this house. We've been looking at other houses the whole time, but nothing compares. Plus, all the houses seem to be short sales, and we're not interested in getting involved with another one of those. I can only be patient so many times and for only so long. At least we didn't wait to get Ofie's room ready.
I guess it just wasn't meant to be and perhaps our dream house is still out there somewhere, we'd love to stay in Cortland, maybe a great house will become available soon.
In other news, my coworkers threw a surprise baby shower last week at work. I was completely surprised and it was so nice to see everyone. Ofie got some great gifts including many great books and her mom got some great scrapbook supplies so she can get right to work on Ofie's scrapbook. I'll put a picture from the shower up once the person who took them (hint, hint Lisa) shares them with me.
