Housing

As some of you may know, we had been looking into buying my parents' neighbors' house and last weekend Oli interviewed in Bremerton so he could work in the area. Well it turns out the housing marked is crazy in that area right now and they were selling the house for way too mucH (RANDOM curtesy of LaYDen)Q. So we decided we would just stay over here. So assuming all goes well we are buying this house in Colfax. It is pretty fugly but everything is fine structurally, so we can gradually pretty it up and the price is right. It is almost at the end of a dead end street so traffic isn't a problem. The front yard isn't much but the back yard is decent sized and surrounded with shrubbery so it is fairly private. The inspection of the house is scheduled for Tuesday afternoon, hopefully no major issues will show up.
Layden went to his first chemistry class with Kathy today. She told everyone he is the assistant quiz grader. Sadly his function is more the opposite of assistance. While he was sleeping I did a section in about ten minutes. With him awake I would look down 5 mins later and realize I was still on the first quiz. He is starting to actually nap. If I lay him down in the guest room after feeding when he is acting sleepy he will nap for atleast an hour. Now I just have to convince myself to do something productive with that hour.

Yeah that house looks like a fixer upper, at least asthetically. But you could do some great things with it!! I'm so happy that you guys have decided to stay over here, you're not just another couple that's gotten lost over there in the west side! Well good luck with the inspection! Layden looks like he's doing well, and he gets cuter and cuter every day :)
