Great, thats what I was thinking too. The

Since moving here I’ve picked up a new job, new baby and a new primary residence.

@Julio VelazquezI would say on a subject too, the sellers to target are those facing foreclosure.

If I continue to expand into it, I will need to hire an employee (headache of baby sitting) and potentially quit my job

We were fine paying a little more as we wanted the area for ourselves.Then within a matter of 6 months of purchasing, we found out we had our little oops baby on the way and my hubby landed his dream job about 2 hours away.

How do you handle emergencies caused by the guest (flushing a beanie baby down the toilet, let's say)? 

They canceled their flights and are driving instead because they have a young baby and just don't want to risk it. 

The baby is not crawling yet but it will soon no doubt.

What I mean is, we use a similar method as his Baby Step #3: Fully Funded Emergency Fund. 

When we got pregnant, we knew we’d like for me to stay home with the baby if possible, and so we started putting my entire paycheck (I made good money working for a large university) into savings to make sure we could live off just his income.
