We're moving July 1st! (mixed feelings)

I'm relieved, happy, excited, nervous, anxious, scared...blah

We went to see an apartment on Wednesday that we both liked. It's a smaller apartment and 2BRs instead of 3 but it's cozy and still plenty spacious. The living room, dining room, and bedrooms are all great sizes so we're happy about that. Also the LR, DR, and kitchen are close to one another so it does lend itself to an open floor plan feel. The kitchen, unfortunately, is tiny. There is no counter space...but then again, there's no counter space where we are now even though the kitchen itself is large. The bathroom is ok...nothing special. At least it doesn't have fugly pink tiling like our current one. It's also a 3rd floor walk up but there are only 2 flights to climb.

There is off street parking, literally a 15 second walk from the front door of the building to a bus stop which hubbs can take to work. We will also have laundry in the basement which is cool. I've never had that.

We're just relieved to be getting out of our current nightmare situation. We are trying to get the landlady to sign a letter stating both parties are mutually agreeing to allow the lease to be broken and that upon a satisfactory inspection, we;d get our security deposit back. We are still waiting for it to be signed. She claims she is willing to sign it but, of course, has to make sure the wording is ok. We are signing the lease for the new apartment this afternoon! We're also happy that we get to actually start setting up a nursery in a few months (well...in the 3rd tri)! We would have never done so if we were staying in the current apartment. Not with knowing that the lease would be expired a few months after the baby would be born. We'd never stay there beyond the lease expiration.

Anyway, please wish us luck because we definitely will need it! And if you've visited and commented this week, thank you!!
