My friend Annika

Today we drove up to San Francisco to visit Auntie Jen, Annika, and her new baby brother Benjamin. I can't believe Jen is now a mama of 2 little ones. She is an amazing mom and looks fantastic. I don't know how she does it!
Kekoa was such a trooper in the car, didn't fuss at all on the way up. He was so content listening to his music and checking out the gorgeous scenery on 280. When we pulled up, Annika was looking down at us and waving from their living room window. Kekoa thought this was so funny and couldn't wait to go inside to play with his "friend" (yes, he does day friend now, it is the cutest). We have only been to their house one other time, but Kekoa remembered where all of Annika's toys were. He headed straight back to her bedroom, totally comfortable there, not shy at all. Annika was so sweet about sharing all of her toys. These two played really well together.
Benjamin is a little angel, he nursed when we first got there and then slept the rest of the time, quiet as a mouse.
We had such a great visit, thank you guys! I really wished we lived closer!
On the way home, Kekoa fell asleep in the car, but only for 30 minutes. I thought, "Oh great, a long grumpy afternoon with my monkey", but I was wrong. After getting home, 30 minutes after he woke up from his power nap, we went into the bedroom to lay down and rest. I sung him a lullaby and he fell back asleep, for almost 2 more hours!! He didn't wake up until almost 4:00!
Wow!

Believe it or not, Annika is 2 years old. She will be 3 next Saturday, but she is a tall little girl. It was pretty funny to see her standing next to Kekoa, he looked extra tiny!

Going in for a smoochie!
Kekoa remembered this toy from last night and couldn't wait to play with it again.

say cheese!
I realized after we left that I didn't even get a picture of Benjamin...I'm telling you, quiet as a mouse!
