Northfield, MN, population 17000. And soon, us. We currently live in Chicago, where we have been for the past 7 years (give or a take a few for EmJC). This summer, we’ll be moving to Northfield, MN where dmjg will start as an assistant professor of philosophy at Carleton College. This blog is about that move and our soon-to-be-life in small town Minnesota.

CONGRATULATIONS. THe little birdie hatched! soooo excited for you. THe wolves are waiting!!!
so…I know it’s strange for a stranger to leave a note on your blog, but…
I came across your blog while googling “northfield minnesota doula,” and then clicked on it because of the “moving to northfield” title. And then I couldn’t resist leaving a note, just because our circumstances are so similar. My husband and I are moving to Northfield in July ‘09 for me to take a one-year teaching job at Carleton. We’re both grad students in Chicago; I’m at the U of C and he’s at Northwestern. And we’re expecting our first baby in November (hence my googling for a doula in Northfield).
It might be nice to know some other new young Chicago-to-Northfield transplants with a new baby this year, so I thought I’d write, even if it’s a bit forward of me! We’ll be there starting in early July; if you’d like to get in touch at any point, please email!
