New Jersey!

We have arrived.
Wow! What a week it has been. We arrived last Sunday afternoon. It has been a whirlwind since then. We have made countless trips to Walmart, Lowe's, and Bed Bath and Beyond. We have everything unpacked, we just need to figure out what to do with the empty boxes. We have met our new neighbors, and they are really nice. There are several families that live in our building which is great, there are also a few families that Ben works with in the area-that has helped make the adjustment. Life is really wonderful. It is nice to finally be settled for a little while. I really like it here. I feel so blessed to be where we are. The only downfall is that Ben has such a long commute, but we really like where we are and it makes it worth it.
Ben really likes his job so far, and is enjoying not having the pressure of training. Jackson is adjusting well, the first few nights were rough, but I think he is starting to like it. He likes to explore everything and crawls up and down the hallway looking in the different rooms to see what is going on. He likes to be involved in everything that is going on. I am just getting used to carrying groceries and Jack up our third floor apartment. Always so fun.

More unpacking.

Wow! I hope you will be happy out east! Carrying groceries and a baby up to a third floor apartment is not an easy task! That is what I have to do with Bailey too. Good luck!
