A successful trip to see the doctor.

Liz took Luke to the pediatrician today. He was very pleased with how the little man is eating and sleeping. He weighs eleven and a half pounds now. The visit was very encouraging for Liz. She is getting more relaxed and confident. Luke is chilling out in the pack and play right now. We’ll see how long the tranquility lasts.

Even more siding.

We got an early start this morning but it was already uncomfortable just after six. It took about five minutes to become soaking wet. We started off on the back of the house and installed a few pieces. Next we went to the gable wall on the fr end of the house. We went a bit higher, and even installed a piece of soffit, but I was very unsteady on the ladder and not at all comfortable, so we moved to lower sections. At one point I went to Lowe’s for a short level and longer air hose for the compressor. There were a couple of periods of rain this afternoon. The heat and humidity were really miserable. The afternoon didn’t feel very productive. Hopefully tomorrow will be better, but they are calling for more rain.
