What a weekend!

Where do I start?


Today is the first day of the blog going public, so if you have some time on your hands, check the Blog Archive (left-hand side) and read some of the earlier entries to become better acquainted with what has been happening the last few weeks.

In other big news, we finally found an apartment and it's only a few blocks away from our current place.  The neighborhood, while close, is a bit more urban and closer to all the shops, parks and train.  The place itself is in a two story building, with our apartment being on the first floor (only a handful of steps to climb).  There are two bedrooms and two baths, with a nice size living room.  The closet space isn't as abundant as in our current place, but we do have a decent amount of storage space.  We are very excited for our big move on November 1st- only a few weeks away!

We are also trying to help our current landlord find a tenant, so if you or anyone you know is interested in a 1.5 bedroom apartment in prime Carroll Gardens, please let me know.  The second (half) room is technically a bedroom, with a window and closet, but it is very small, so it's best fit for an office or a very large walk-in closet. The main bedroom is very large and the whole apartment has 10ft. ceilings.  There is also a pretty large, separate, eat-in kitchen with fairly new appliances.  I am not sure what the landlord will charge for rent, but guessing around the $2k range.

In latest baby news - we had our 12 week ultrasound today.  The baby was so cute and was moving around a ton.  It might have something to do with the fact that the technician kept poking my stomach trying to get him to turn.  This baby is already a little in utero soccer player.

Gene's Corner:
Setting: on the train after our ultrasound
Gene: Did you see the brain on him/her?  If we're lucky, that baby is going to be smart just like me!

  1. Something tells me your baby will not be a soccer player..more like a little dark haired brainiac with big thick eyebrows

  2. Well, let me tell you something from personal experience. One would think that dark hair, dark eyes and big thick eyebrows genes are dominant, but i have 2 blondish kids with blue eyes. Hard to say what the eyebrows will look like on the 2 and 4 year old.

    So, if you were planning to bet your money on this don't
