What we are up to

Well, we have been in Wichita for about 3 weeks now. I have started my new job and we are finally all unpacked. I am in the program working on the Boeing 747-8 passenger airliner. I am pretty bored at work since I don't go through my software training until the second week in June. I also have to get about 8 accounts set up just so i can do simple tasks. I am however able to go walk around the plant and see how each little part of the airplanes are manufactured. I think I could spend all day watching people work and not get bored. Also, it took me about an hour just to make a loop around the plant. The place is huge and I am just waiting to get lost down there. I am anxious to start some real work.

Back at home, we are finally getting settled. We actually have a couch and a washer and dryer. I think we are ready for our baby girl to come... well, as ready as we can be i guess. It will be interesting to see how Carson reacts to the new addition to the family. For the first time in his life he won't be the center of attention. We finally got our health insurance figured out and Tiffani was able to go to the doctor. The baby could come any time! Yikes!

Also, since we have been in Wichita, we have been able to go to the Zoo and go camping. Camping isnt quite the same as in Idaho, but Carson and I still had fun. I bought Carson a Batman fishing pole, but we were unsuccessful during the campout. I actually missed Idaho for a little while there. Anywho, here are a few pictures we have taken... I also got around to taking the pictures off my camera of my last Idaho fishing trip.

Getting Settled

Well, we made it to Wichita! It has been a long couple of days, but we have survived. We were able to spend a few days in Utah and couple weeks in Michigan visiting the family. Carson loved being able to run around and play outside. I think it was a good break for all of us. We already miss being with the family! Carson keeps asking about Grandma's house and playing in the garden with Grandpa and playing with Erin. He sure hasn't been happy with just us these last couple days. Carson's prayer last night included a plea to get on an airplane and fly to grandma's house to play. Hopefully he realizes that we are going to stay here in Wichita.



Yeah, so when we got into our new apartment, we were surprised to find out that none of the rooms had lights in them. There were a couple smaller stage lights in the living room but they weren't enough to light up the room. So after a sad couple days in the dark we finally bought some lights. I've never seen Carson so excited about lights before. After a couple of days of unpacking we still have a number of things in boxes and there is a lot of "stuff" that needs to be looked through and given away or thrown. I (RYAN) start work on Friday, so i am excited to get settled and oriented to my new job. We like the area so far and it is nice to not have to drive a half an hour to get to a Target or a Kohl's. Anyways, these are just a few random thoughts this Wednesday morning and i'm sure there will be more updates to follow.
