The Staycation

First, the less-exciting news: We checked in at 8 a.m. this morning and still no babies.  We juuuuust spoke with the doctor and she let us know there's a chance things could go as long as Tuesday.  Clearly we're dealing with stubborn babies here. I think they take after their big sister.

Then, the good news: Erin is doing great.  She's mostly just relaxing, getting lots of visits from the excellent nurses and watching football.  For the record, it was her wishes and not mine, that the TV in our room be turned to the games.

Finally, the really good news: Apparently, we're having the babies in the Presidential Suite of the UCSF maternity ward.  The room we've been given is incredible.  It's a corner room on the 15th floor of the hospital with panoramic views of the San Francisco city skyline, Sutro Tower and the Marin Headlands.  We've got a TV, WiFi, a private bathroom and shower, mini-fridge, and even partial hardwood floors!  There's even a little sleeper sofa for me.  Erin and I joked that it's almost like we're having a staycation at one of San Francisco's finest hotels.  At a minimum, it's far nicer than the first few apartments I lived in when moving to the City.

More news later.  In the meantime, here are a few pictures of our suite:
