Inspection
Today we had the inspection for the house. It went pretty well. There doesn't seem to be any major issues, rather a whole host of small ones. Many of the three prong outlets are not grounded and at some point should be replaced with gfci's. There seems to be some moisture under the bathroom floor with some swelling (the guy had a nifty little moisture sensor). Our circuit breaker box is aparently made by a company that has had issues with spontaneous combustion, so an electrician should come check it out. Part of the wall in the living room really needs to be just redone because they did a hideous job of filling in a window. The gutters are ever so clogged, one we could see grass growing out of. Some of the windows have cracks but atleast they are the single pane ones we would want to replace anyway. The furnace needs to be cleaned. But on the plus side, no major settling, no major water damage or leaks, and the roof is good for atleast a bit longer. So yeah, there might be enough little things to bury us. Once we get the official report we will have look it over, see what really needs to be done soon and go from there.
Yesterday it was very windy. I picked up Oli from work and when I got to the hospital I set my travel mug (very pretty, got it weekend before last) on the roof of the car. The wind blew it over, off the car, spilling chai tea all over the car and busticated it when it hit the ground. Layden really liked it too. He tried drinking out of it or just gnawing on it, but didn't like it when we took it away, a little scary, he is already going for the caffeine. Layden has lucky ears according to our friends Al and Mimi. They have a good shape for long life. He had his 4 month check up today and all is well. He is 15 lbs 8.5 oz and is 25.75" long. He also got 4 shots which he definitely didn't like but with a couple minutes of nursing seems to have gotten over. It was so sad though because before the nurse came in we were talking with him and he was smiling and laughing. Hard to make him sad when he is so happy. Baby laughs are very contagious though. When he laughs and smiles it makes me so happy that I have to laugh too.
