Michelle busy unpacking boxes in White House
Washington, Jan 24: Michelle Obama is spending the first few days as First Lady in helping her family settle into the White House.

While President Barack Obama started off on his official duties, Michelle has been busy unpacking boxes and making the children, Malia, 10, and Sasha, 7, feel comfortable in their new home at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.

The First Lady, however, did have time to hold an open house in the Blue Room of the White House on Jan 21, where she greeted Americans alongside the president.
