In other news, we went by and saw the house last night and almost all the siding is done! Most of the windows too. It looks like a real solid house, at least from the outside. And it also looks freakin' huge. Depending on your standards, it is or is not freakin' huge. I am currently living in a house that is over 2400 sq ft and has 5 bedrooms, a game room and 2.5 baths and was purchased to be lived in by only 2 people. Fortunately they did buy such a large house, as we have 5 people and two dogs in it right now, but before we knew that was going to happen it did seem a bit large. So by comparison, my new house, which is 2150 sq ft with 3 bedrooms, an office, a game room, and 2.5 baths which is being purchased to be eventually occupied by 5 people (once our family is done), 2 dogs and a cat doesn't seem insanely huge. BUT, there are plenty of people who have raised families of a larger size than ours in less than 1500 sq ft. Heck, I worked with a woman who was the youngest of 16 siblings who was raised in a house in East Austin that was about 1000 sq ft and had two bedrooms. Mom and Dad had a bedroom, the girls had a bedroom, and the boys slept on the floor in the living room. So size is in the eye of the beholder.

You know, there are some advantages to living with your in-laws. Rather than cleaning or doing house projects on a Saturday afternoon while your daughter naps, you can waste time on the internets. Woot!
