It was James' 22nd birthday, my parents came up from New Jersey to visit and we finally decided on a [new apartment](http://www.flickr.com/photos/23115371@N04/3488745977/). Good thing, because I don't know how much more Craig's List surfing I could stand. It was really nice having my parents around. Needless to say, Em got quite a lot of attention. And, lucky for my parents, they didn't have to change one stinky diaper all weekend (which actually worried us more than it made us happy). James and I were even able to go on a date for his birthday. I took him to a sports bar for some pre-dinner drinks and to watch some Sox and Celtics, and then we headed to the [Beehive](http://www.beehiveboston.com/) for a late meal and some live jazz.
