this whole selling the house thing is frustrating. we had an offer, and made a counteroffer, and then the buying party got cold feet & backed out. so there was an open house today, and our agent said lots and lots of people looked at it. we'll see if it produces any buyers. i'm so sick of cleaning up the house, making it's all aired out & perfectly perfectly clean with no speck of dirt visible. it's so much work.
another friend had a baby this month. i'm losing count, there are so many! it's definitely baby season.
our baby has two more teeth - that makes four on the bottom, four on the top. his lower right molar area seems extra swollen & squishy, so i'm wondering if it will be coming through soon. he's been drooling a lot. we've been giving him ibuprofen at night, as the few times we haven't, he seems to wake up. we were doing an 8pm bedtime, but realized that it wasn't helping at all with his early wake up times, so we've switched him back to a 7-7:30pm bedtime. also trying to reign in his naps. i'd let him sleep 2-3 hours if he was game for it the past month, but i think it was ruining his night sleeping, so i'm limiting him to just 1.5 hours at a time. he'll be switching to just one nap a day at some point, but i don't think he's ready for that. this weekend was pretty busy. friday night we spent cleaning for a 10am showing on sat, after which we were told about the buyers backing out. we spent some of sat afternoon at boedecker cellars, picking up some futures we had purchased way back in the winter, and tasting some great wine. sat evening we met up with g'ma & g'pa tigard, and my cousins s & d for dinner, before getting zane to bed. we watched forgetting sarah marshall - it was a really really funny movie!!!! really quirky & not as predictable as most comedies. today we cleaned the house, napped when z did, and then left the house for the open house. we ran some errands, saw a friend & her new baby in the hospital, and went to another friend's birthday party, before coming home to do laundry & cook for the week. busy weekend. this week will be short - we leave for the east coast for the weekend for a friend's wedding. z will be staying with g'ma & g'pa tigard.
