My Adventures in San Jose

As told by Kaitlyn
Yesterday, I took my first trip to San Jose. Mommy and I had lots of people to see and meet. We started out at 9:30 and headed to Daddy's work. I cried for a little while, but then I fell asleep. I don't like when the car stops, so that's when I wake up. Just in time too, because soon we were at Daddy's office and I was awake to see him. He showed me off to all his co-workers and then we had to leave again. Mommy had a dentist appointment.
At Mommy's dentist appointment, I cried again. I didn't like being left in my car seat while Mommy got x-rays. But I know it was probably best that I didn't have x-rays too. After that, Mommy picked me up and I sat on her lap while she had her check up. The dentist said I might be teething already! I started crying again when we left, but fell back to sleep in the car on the way to lunch with Tina.
I seemed to have slept through part of my Mommy and Tina's lunch. But when I woke up, Mommy had finished her chicken and was ready to feed me. I also found out I got some new clothes from Tina's daughter (and my new friend), Natalya. It was a very nice lunch indeed!
After lunch, we went to Mommy's office and met her boss, Jeff, and all the admins in the office. I got to meet Yvonne, Vicki, Herman, Nancy, Birgit, Linda, Pankaj, Martin and Copeland. That was very exciting! They all told me how cute I was, and I coo'd and smiled for Linda. It was very nice of her to go to so much trouble to give me a gift. I'm very appreciative. Nancy took lots of pictures of me smiling, too. And Herman was so kind to think of Mommy and get her a Starbucks gift card. She needs lots of caffiene to keep up with my schedule.
Next, we were off to see Auntie Liz and Cousin Andrew. I cried so hard on the way, that I nearly lost my voice! I just don't like being alone. But, after crying for a while I got really tired and fell asleep again. (Mommy noticed a pattern, that I cry for a while in the car but then I fall asleep to the motion.) Riding in the car makes me very tired.
When I got to Auntie Liz and Cousin Andrew's house, I was still sleeping. When I woke up, I got to eat again. And then both Auntie Liz and Cousin Andrew held me. Cousin Andrew bought me some very cute shoes from Baby Gap. I can't wait to wear them!
Daddy was ready to finish work, so we went to pick him up and went to dinner with Auntie Liz, Cousin Andrew and Cousin Shannon. We went to California Pizza Kitchen, which Mommy seemed to love. I had a little more food there, but I really wanted to sleep some more. So Daddy held me while I slept, then we got in the car and went home. Daddy sat in the back with me this time. That was such a treat!
We got home late, but I was ready to eat a full meal again. I stayed up for a little longer while Daddy read me a new book that our friend Leah sent in the mail to us yesterday. Then I went to bed and slept soundly until this morning at 5:30. I was hungry again! I have also already had two naps this morning and am ready for another one. I must go now and sleep, for I am tuckered out!
