California Girls!

Hendrix and I made a trip to see our two favorite California Girls - Jamie and Piper! Jared was headed to Philly and 'One was busy with school, so it was just Jamie, Piper, Hendrix and me. I was very nervous about the flights, but Hendrix was lovely! Mickey Mouse Clubhouse DVD and M&M's saved my life. I am such a terrible Mother, letting Hendrix eat a whole package of M&M's on each flight. He was too cute looking out the window wondering where Piper and Jamie were, as if they were waiting outside the plane:) "Jamma where are you"

Our trip was a blast - Jamie lives in a luxurious neighborhood with beautiful landscaping and the most perfect Lagoon (fancy name for swimming pool). Hendrix was a little skeptical of the pool the first day, but he sure loved it the second and third time!



Piper and Hendrix were sure funny with each other. They both wanted the same toy at the same time! Hendrix would rip them out of Piper's hands, but she put up a good fight. Sharing has got to be the hardest lesson in life! I think Hendrix taught Piper some good tricks - like the word "My" she was saying "My Baby" by the time we left (referring to her baby doll that Hendrix was trying to steal). She also learned how to crawl backwards down the stairs - probably thanks to Claire as well who was there the week before us!


Here Hendrix was upset because Piper was trying to push him in the stroller - such Frienemies!


Look at this picture of Piper - she is such a California Babe! Jamie and Jared are going to have to lock her up when she is a teen.


A big thanks to Jamie for hosting us in California - we already want to come back!
