Moving forward

This weekend was a very high-stress weekend for Dave and me. We are supposed to be moving in a week and we still don't have a place to live. We have a couple of leads through craigslist but we are still not sure what we are going to do. We posted a want add on craigslist and have gotten a couple of hits from realators but I am not really sure how it will work out. Do we have to pay them if we decide to use them? I also found someone who needs someone to sublease their apartment because they just bought a house. The rent is really good, it is extremely close to Dave's work (2 minutes to be exact), and it would be on the bottom floor of a brand new apartment. The cons are that it is an apartment and we were really hoping to rent a house, we would have to move in 6 months (again), it is smaller than the apartment we have now, and we would move in on the 21st and Dave would have to start work the very next day. We are still waiting to hear how the eviction hearing goes for the house we want to rent. If everything goes well we should hear by tomorrow. I would really love to rent the house but their are cons to that as well. We would have to buy a fridge and a lawnmower. But I think the pros are greater. It has a backyard and a 2 car garage! Anyways, please keep praying for us. Dave and I are pulling away from each other in a time when it is crucial to stick together. Please pray for patience for both of us. Emily seems to be feeling alot better. She hasn't had a fever for the last two days but she still looks pale and is acting fussy. I took her to the park yesterday afternoon and she had a blast running around with the big kids. It was fun to watch her so carefree and just enjoying life. Ally is doing very well. She is getting bigger by the hour (it seems). She is sleeping through the night and eating very well. When she smiles at me, it makes my day. Emily is a great big sister. The other day she kept giving books to Ally and then she sat and read to her.
Sorry there are still no pictures. I have to figure out how to hook up the camera to this computer and all that fun stuff.
