After too many nights of 5-6 wakeups, Toby took Weezy to the doctor. It turns out she has a sinus infection. Whew! It is good to know that she had something physically wrong that can be fixed. She got a prescription of anti-biotics and after about day 4 of the 10 day regimen, she is sleeping through the night (in 6 hour blocks at least).

Max received a package via UPS last night from Granmille. We opened the shipping box and there was a beautifully wrapped present for his upcoming birthday. He of course wanted to open it right away, but we told him it was for his birthday on Friday. He has seen other presents that we are holding and has been OK to wait, so we didn’t think there would be a problem. We were wrong. He cried and cried and cried and told us at least 3 times that he didn’t want to have any birthday party at all. Finally he calmed down and is anxious for Friday.

And last but not least, we have our final (hopefully) Architural Review Board meeting on Thursday (tomorrow) night. I say hopefully, because in the course of getting our design approved, our architect lowered the ceiling height of the new second floor from 9 feet to 8 feet. He did this to lower the overall height of the addition. But he didn’t tell us about this, and so we asked him to re-incorporate the 9 foot ceiling since the engineering had been done based on 9 foot ceilings. The city’s height limit is 30 feet, and the new height of the addition is 28.5 feet, so you would think there would not be a problem. But the city planner has asked the ARB for review of the new height.
