One step closer...

to signing our new lease! Oh man, this has been the most difficult apartment to settle, but i think we are almost there. We have the lease in our hands, with Tim's (the landlord) signature. So we were instructed to take it home, read it and bring it back. Then of course he needs to send it to FL to his ex-wife, as they co-own the apartment, before it is all official. But I will be surprised if we are not living there next month... so close.

Went to dinner with Ed and Steph last night... we went to a new place (for us) in West Roxbury Center... pretty good food. I just love that area. As much as we want to stay in Brookline, I definitely would like living in W. Roxbury if we were near the center. Lots of stores, restaurants and ice cream places -- yummy! We'll have to do more exploring with Ed and Steph over there... Ed's eye looks like it is healing well. You can't even tell he had surgery on his eye.. no scars or anything! They did a great job. His pupil is dilated from his meds, so his vision is still blurry, but hopefully now that he has stopped those eye drops, his pupil will begin to contract and help with his vision.

And how about Manny and HR #500!! How exciting for him! He has been in a bit of a slump.. hopefully now that the pressure of hitting #500 is gone, he'll go back to being Manny.

Oh and we were able to stock up on some baby toys from our friends, so we have some of our Xmas shopping done... yay!! We got a wagon, a leap frog table, a piano toy and a bathtub. So I think all we need is an exersaucer and we will be good. It's kind of ridiculous how much this baby already has and will need.

Today we are off to Steven and Nadine's for dinner and cards with the family. Should be lots of fun. Haven't played in a few weeks, so I am ready to go :)
