My sister Jessie got to stick around for an extra day and hang out with Andrew and I after the rest of my family left. We were able to get a lot of fun adventures squeezed into one day! First, Jessie babysat Andrew so that I could go on a nice long run in the morning. It usually go running after Kevin gets home around 7pm, so it was nice to go in the morning and still have so much energy! Jessie played with Andrew and he loved smiling at her!
After that, we headed over to Google for a delicious lunch at Charlies Cafe with Kevin. Jessie and I especially loved the samosas and other Indian dishes... and the desserts- flourless chocolate cake and mini Ben & Jerrys ice cream cups! Here's a picture after Andrew got his diaper changed at Google. He decided it would be fun to have a major explosion at each of the locations we went to during Jessie's visit :)
Here's Jessie posing by the Google sign at Kevin's office.
Next we headed up to San Francisco to the Haight-Ashbury district, or "The Haight" as we usually call it. We usually head to the Upper Haight where there are tons of fun vintage clothing boutiques, bookstores, etc. My favorite place to go is the Buffalo Exchange because I always can find random pink t-shirts. Yesterday was a successful shopping trip because I found 3 pink t-shirts and barely spent anything! (Kevin thinks I need to branch out and buy some new colors :)). Here's Jessie posing with Andrew as we bopped around The Haight. He was the perfect shopping buddy...either sleeping or just checking out the shops while we roamed.
In typical SF fashion, it started getting pretty windy, chilly, and foggy later in the day...so we decided to head to my favorite spot for some hot cocoa- Ghirardelli Square! The cocoa was insanely rich and full of whipped cream and marshmallows. It was the perfect way to end our day of shopping in SF!
We already can't wait until Jessie can come visit us again! She is a super Aunt and Andrew and I loved hanging out with her!
