It's a little rude and somewhat disrespectful to counter-offer twice in my opinion. I would personally advise against doing so. You have their counter, so sleeping it on it is the best path, and if you decide it's not the coin for you, walk away.

Very often people counter to see whether you will move from your price. You are under no obligation to do so. You are also not obligated to withdraw your original offer. I do my homework up front and come up with the best offer I can make. And I generally do not move from that number unless there are extenuating circumstances. If someone is offended that I will not raise my offer in a negotiation, them let them be offended. The seller loses if you walk away without having another chance to accept your offer. It costs them nothing to say no one more time - just be pleasant in the interaction. Just imho.

In negotiation parlance, you have a great BATNA, or many attractive alternatives to making this deal. You are in a very attractive negotiating position and you should work the deal aggressively.
IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS
THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."
