Let the House Hunting BEGIN!

Today we begin the ever exciting, often heartbreaking and always nerve wracking quest to find a new home. Fingers crossed on financing, since we applied yesterday.

We want
Something in Round Rock
4 Bedrooms
Nice neighborhood (who doesn't)

We need
At least 3 bedrooms with a den or bonus area of some sort
Master UPSTAIRS. I can't sleep on the first floor. I've moved rooms at resorts even.
A big backyard. At least not tiny.

Our price range this time is a lot nicer than when we purchased this house. Let me tell you, I had one realtor outright LAUGH to me on the phone when I told him I wanted a house in RR for under 100k. Well the joke is on him because our realtor DID take the time to find our humble home and guess what? Now that our budget is almost double, we're going back to her. Didn't anyone ever teach that jerk about repeat business? We were very pleased to find out that we should be able to get a few dollars out of this place too, which is a welcome surprise considering property values in the area.

I hope I'll have good news when we return this evening! Pray that Abby has a good afternoon and isn't too fussy about being in and out of the carseat =)
