First off, congratulations on your first house!
My advice is to watch the electrician work, and learn. With an older house like yours, you'll likely need those skills <household wiring is much easier than some tradesmen would have you think>. On some of the more complicated stuff, a room addition I once did, I once paid an electrician for an hour of his time to look at my situation and tell me what i need to meet code in my area. The building inspector loved what I did, passed with flying colors, and I didn't have to outsource simple stapling romex and adding a breaker at $75-$100/hr.
