DC1 was conceived on Nob Hill, San Francisco. I shit you not. (In a nice hotel I need to add, not just randomly on the road itself)

Not so much where as when, Dc1 was conceived the night Diana passed away... During my pregnancy craziness I touted the idea of naming her Diana but luckily sense was talked into me. Don't know what I was thinking. For where, all 3 dcs would be called bedroom as I'm boring!

Kitchen work top.
It was an impulsive drunken moment after unsuccessfully trying for 5yrs to get pregnant and being told that my insides where so screwed up due to extreme endo I would never fall and needed IVF.
My husband wanted to keep that piece for prosperity when we redid the kitchen yrs later, never knew he was so romantic. X
