Is anyone still looking at this? Well if you are, we made it!
We arrived Saturday afternoon and moved in all evening. The biggest hiccup was having to drive through San Francisco with the Budget truck (and car in tow) after the first location wouldn't let me leave only the car carrier. However with the help of a teenager in the building we moved all of our stuff in Saturday night by 11pm.
Since then we've been unpacking and trying to give our apartment some shape. When we were done putting all of the boxes in we didn't think we'd fit everything. However it looks like we'll only need to get rid of a shelf and a coffee table (and maybe a stereo...oh, and maybe a couple of mirrors - more than we realized) in order to call it a living space.
Monday and Tuesday were spent, among other things, going to Renee's school, getting new Social Security cards (to reflect our new last name), grocery shopping, and a variety of other little tasks that have managed to take up 2 days. Jeff starts his job on Wednesday as well.
We'll put more moving in pictures (and maybe some road trip pictures as well) up soon and will put occasional updates on here to let everyone know what we're doing in The City.

Keep writing so I can live vicariously through you guys as I sit in Kentwood feeding my 4 month old rice cereal and praying that she will nap longer than 30 minutes at a time! Oh, post your mailing address soon too!
