We are in San Francisco! Let me explain:
Kenny had a week long conference to attend here with Urban Land Institute. He suggested a couple weeks ago that Owen and I might like to join him. The idea of sitting in a hotel room in San Francisco with a 6-month old didn't sound terribly exciting to me. So I mentioned it to my mom and she said she would love to join us! Yesteday Kenny, my mom, Owen and I all boarded a plane in Calgary and landed here in San Fran. All I can say is I was crazy for not wanting to come!
Owen was an angel on the airplane. Travelling with him is still easy because I still lug all 18 pounds of him around in the Baby Bjorn. He fell asleep just as we were boarding the plane and just as we were getting off. During the flight he ate, played, and was entertained by the 2 year-old sitting behind us. He even slept throught the night last night! I was really suprised with how smoothly the whole day went considering he only had two catnaps of about 20 minutes a piece.
Last night we had takeout sushi and an early bedtime because we were all tuckered from a day of travelling. This morning, Kenny took off for his conference at about 9. My poor mom is recovering from a bought of food poisoning that kept her up almost the whole night... Owen and I have already been out to Walgreens to get some neccessary supplies and Starbucks of course. Right now, he is snoozing in his green hotel pack and play. And I am already planning our escape from Lethbidge, Alberta, population 80,000. I am in love with big cities.
