Kaitlyn’s white room is almost complete. She has all her furniture except her white toy chest for under the window and her rocking chair is still a work in progress. Overall her room came out pretty nice. She likes it so what else matters. Click on the picture to see more of her room.
Last week I stayed in San Francisco to attend VMWorld 2009. What is VMWorld? A computer conference. That doesn’t have much to do with this so keep reading. So I had to find a hotel room for the week. A co-worker of mine discovered that if I stay in the Hilton all but one day its only $99 a night. If I stay Wednesday night all the nights then go up to $249 a night. This made no sense to me so I called the Hilton asking why they did that. They couldn’t give me a good answer so I decided I will just book all but one night then make a seperate reservation for my last night. Save a little money for my employer. Then I started looking around and I realized that for $249 a night I could switch hotels and get a change of scenery. So I booked a standard room at the newly renovated Parc 55 hotel. This hotel was right across the street I couldn’t have asked more a more convenient switch. So I went to check into the Parc 55 and I was told my room was not ready so I asked if I could have another room. The lady behind the counter said, “Trust me you want to wait, go shopping and come back in two hours.” She said I was on the 32nd floor. I came back a few hours later and a different lady behind the counter commented on the room. I was excited to see what all the commotion was about. So 3207. I head to the elevator and turns out there are only 32 floors in this hotel. Wow top floor. So I get into my room and it was the biggest hotel room I have every been in. Three rooms, 2 40inch LCD TV’s, 3 panoramic windows. It even had a hallway. Even better than the room is the view. See the photo gallery for more pictures.
We visited Lake Natoma yesterday and had a blast. It was a bit warmer this time but we still had fun. For those of you who were there you may notice pictures from our trip 2 weeks ago. I forgot about those pictures. This week I couldn’t forget thanks to Brenda who showed us all how to sail. Click on the picture below of Brenda to see what happens when you sail a kayak. The picture might take the surprise out of it. Sorry!
Yes the big news is it’s A Girl! The room decorations have started. My old office, which turned into the guest room when Kaitlyn arrived is now the new babies room. The paint is on the walls. The hand me downs are starting already. Kaitlyns whole bedroom set it moving into the babies room and Kaitlyn who has been sleeping in her toddler bed will get all new furniture. I suspect when the baby is Kaitlyn’s age this whole furniture swap will happen again. She won’t remember this and we won’t tell her Click on the Ultrasound below for more pictures. We need name suggestions. I am not saying we will use your suggestions but at least you will feel like you are playing a part. Kinda like when you got to vote on Kaitlyns name and Ashley won. Its’ the thought that counts
