*Huge thanks to my In-Laws, who made this bathroom fix-up possible!*

We finally got the floor done and replaced the toilet, which handily fixed all the leak issues we had in there. It was a complete mess - a previous owner of the house had assed it up so badly when he'd done whatever it was - there was no wax ring under the toilet, he'd filled in the concrete around the sewer hole with road-grade concrete, and hadn't leveled it off... there were two layers of linoleum. It's no wonder the damn toilet leaked from the day we bought the house. The commode was glued to the floor with caulk. Literally.

Anyway, here's the before and after:



Please note that I finally got to install my fish toilet seat that I bought 5 years ago when we bought the house.

I enrolled the kids in swimming lessons at the YMCA. They are really enjoying the lessons.



Korben's doing great with the swimming, but has gotten in trouble several times for not listening to the lifeguards (i.e. getting in the pool when he's not supposed to) and Sophie is struggling with getting her head wet. She apparently is just like I was and doesn't want to get her face or ears wet. We're working on it.
