We have some big news to share: one of our offers to purchase a house was accepted! In case you didn't already know, Nik and I have been shopping for a house since the beginning of the year. With us, two kids and grandma around, it's been a bit tight living in our little three bedroom house (at least, by my Western living standards). So we've been regularly scanning online real estate listings, scheduling home tours and trekking out to open houses every weekend, and placing offers that seemed to get promptly (and heartbreakingly) rebuffed. The Bay Area real estate market is absolutely insane, so it's a relief to finally have an accepted offer (even though it's costing us a small fortune).

This week has been hot, hot, hot. It's only June, so this is undoubtedly a preview of the hot summer to come. We did make it out to the park one day, we made it out the door by 9 am and by 10 am it was already getting hot. Kai had lots of fun checking out the Canadian geese in the park.
Sora and I are slowly recovering from our bout of hand, foot and mouth disease. Sora was actually doing better than me, but then she just got a bug from Kai, and now she and Kai are both coughing.

This has been a crazy week, with all the illness in the house and having our offer accepted. But we're grateful for all that we have and we're mostly thankful for the fact that in spite of illness, our two kiddos still manage to be awesome.
