Walking with Jared

I figured out that I don't have to run Jared up to the playground anymore. When he is there, all he does is play in and try to eat the mulch. What he really wants to do is just walk around, and that is easy enough to do right outside our apartment. So we've started going on morning and late afternoon walks when it isn't too hot or sunny. He walks pretty fast and goes surprisingly far when he isn't too distracted. (mostly by cars) He doesn't fall very often, so that's good. He has started running though, so I really have to watch him for that.

Jared spun around so much the other day that he fell down. That was pretty funny, but then he got back up and started to spin the other way. :)

Jared likes to stick out his tongue in the mirror and has also started clucking his tongue.

The house stuff has gone extremely well. The radon levels came back at an acceptable level, and the house passed a termite inspection. The chimney inspection showed that the crown will need to be resurfaced and the wood stove flue needs to be cleaned, but we think that the sellers will probably take care of that. We have also applied for a loan, and got a very low interest rate, so that's great! We just need to talk to some movers about quotes and get boxes to start packing! My Mom will be here for a couple days soon to distract Jared so I can start packing.
