keep it a surprise, Chuck.

Oh, fair enough. Isn't that

every parent's prerogative?

But if I were you, I wouldn't be in any

big hurry to paint the nursery pink.

Oh, gosh. It's just a special time,

being in that delivery room.

Right. The man almost fainted

when our guppy had babies.

Now, you know that

that was a hard delivery for me.

AII that cloudy water and then those

Iittle things popping out one by one.

Honey?

Babe.

Honey.

Now, the place was built in 1 889

by H. Van Hackett himself...

...Iegendary architect

and perfectionist.

I'd Iike to tell you something

right up front:

In all my years in "the business"--

And there have been more than a few.

--I have never seen

a more sound home.

Structurally speaking.

Wait till you get a Ioad

of the second floor.

Baby, do you see this?

-It's okay, we'II fix it.

-Did you see this?

Now, she's got five bedrooms

and four bathrooms...

...so needless to say, there's plenty

of room for the whole fam.

I think we're gonna go ahead and put

Mom and Dad in the master bedroom.

-Five bedrooms, right?

-Five, baby. You feeling me?

I'm feeling you.

-This big enough for you, baby?

-It's beautiful.

And, of course, the master bathroom.

Oh, my God, baby, a claw-foot tub.

-I've always wanted one of these.

-Me too.

Pretty awesome, right?

-I Iike it.

-It's beautiful. And the double sinks!

Oh, my God.

Baby, Iook at the shower.

Oh, my God, honey, this is bigger

than our entire apartment.

I know.

What's in there, Chuck?

That is a private toilet.

Baby.

-Did you say private?

-Yes, sir.

Oh, my God.

How I Iook?

How do you feel?

I feel good.

Feeling good's good enough.

You be okay in there, Nick?

Just give me one minute.

So, now, Suzanne here tells me

that you're in the publishing game?

Oh, yeah, I did sell a magazine

to OmniHouse.

An entrepreneur.

A budding William Randolph Hearst

right here in our midst.

I don't really know who that is,

Chuck, but, hey, I guess so.

Modest too? They broke the mold.

I'II tell you what, Suze,

I'd hang on to this one.

Oh, yeah, he's a keeper, Chuck.

Oh, way to stick the Ianding, Kev-o.

The Hacketts, of course,

used this as a guest cottage.

But with just a "scootcharino" of work,

it could be easily converted...

...into the perfect creative nook for,

you know, a....

A publisher.

You know, I was thinking about

writing in that bathroom up there.

Oh, yeah?

-Oh, honey, this is so charming.

-This'II work too.

Just for a second, Nick,

just for a second, imagine....

Imagine watching

a blue-throated hummingbird...

...suckle the nectar from a fresh

hydrangea blossom...

...while you free your mind...

...to the creative impulses that have
