First Day of Work

Thanks, Ian! I love you, too.

So we have arrived in Oak Park. Everything went as planned, we arrived on Saturday and unpacked the truck. We then spent about four days unpacking boxes and organizing. Aaron is ecstatic with his new kitchen. We have so much cupboard space that he currently has two empty cupboards and one empty drawer. We have put some toys in one of the cupboards for Ian. So he has someplace that is his cupboard to explore. We are really happy with the apartment and the neighborhood. There are kids everywhere! We have gotten in the habit of taking a walk after dinner and its nice to have people in the neighborhood say hi.

I hear Ian coughing right now. He caught a chill the day we went to Navy Pier (Friday). It wasn't too cold in Oak Park but down by the waterfront it was windy and chilly. Especially when we rode the ferris wheel and were 150 feet in the air. It's been unseasonably chilly all week which has put a damper on some of our exploring.

Today is my first day of my new job. They asked me to come in at 9 because my new boss had another baby (his second girl) last week and is a little groggy. I can certainly understand that! So I can't write that much... I have to go figure out what I am going to wear! I had bought a new pair of pants and a couple of shirts for work but they are all a little to light weight for a 40 degree morning. I'm excited to be starting work and nervous... I'll let you know how it goes.
