Oh, hey. I was thinking the other day about how you had said once you were interested in cloth diapering this baby. If thats still something you're thinking about (yay!) then I'd highly recommend clothdiapering. They are so helpful and awesome. Also feel free to ask me any questions, it'd be like the mostly blind leading the totally blind, but yeah :-)

just a comment about month to monthing if you haven't done that before...

Our apartment was $640 a month. We month to monthed for 1 month and it went up to $800. It went up to $700 to market rate and then there was a $100 month to month fee. So be prepared to budget for that.

Otherwise congrats and it was good to see you again 2 weeks ago!

Your welcome. One thing you can possibly think about is if your apartment complex will do a 3 month lease. Then at least you don't get raped by the "fee" which is BS. Also let them know you are doing it because you are looking for a house. Some apartments are cool and understand that there's a couple months where you aren't sure of whats going on.

Also we started looking for a house in early May and closed mid July and had our apartment through the end of July. I think we found a house quickly so there's a frame of reference for ya. We just went through all that crap so we are probably a good place to start asking questions when you have them.

Oh yeah. Remember to give notice when you do move out!! My coworker didn't give notice and they slammed him with 2 months worth of rent in fees because he didn't give his 2 months notice.

We only had to give 1 months notice. So yeah what that because 2 months rent = nice fridge or livingroom set etc.
