and are there any good websites to look for both a job and house?

In the Spring...I live in Charlotte, NC. That is when the majority of the houses go on the market, and businesses are hiring again.
Both of these severely decline as soon as school starts.

First you need to have a general idea of where you are moving to......2 States is a darn big search area. Write a short list of things you MUST have, things you would like, things you want but can live without. Start researching Cities and Towns on the internet, go to the Chamber of Commerce Site, and the City or Town site. It's easy to look at an Atlas and pick names, areas etc. Ask friends if they know anyone personally that has moved to the Carolinas and get some feedback. Planning a short 2 or 3 day trip to an area would be invaluable.

Lots of research you need to do in an area that you don't know anything about especially with a child I think you might want to go and do some research about the area's school, safety, crime, health issues etc here: http://www.realestateformnm.comSpecificAreainfo.aspx
Best of luck to you

Start looking for the job now, do not move without one, I did once and nearly broke us. Use Monster and career builder and start getting the resume out there, and at least researching what is available.
