NJ & Baby Drake!

Drake Allister!
Over the weekend Jeff, Kenzie & I drove down to New Jersey to visit his family. His sister gave birth to baby Drake on Tuesday so we were very excited to meet our new little nephew! He is beautiful! :)
We left really early on Saturday morning so we only were there for one night but we had a lot of fun while we were there! Kenzie had a great time and loved playing with Jeff's mom,sisters, and aunts! She was obsessed with their dog and cat. I can't count how many times we caught Kenzie with the animals in a choke hold! I think it was meant to be a hug but it looked more like a wrestling move!

Proud Uncle Jeff!

Smelling the flowers outside....
Before we left we wanted to get a picture of Kenzie & Drake t/g so we put the boppy on the bed for Drake and when we turned around to get the baby, Kenzie plopped herself in the boppy! Poor girl wasn't ready for her baby position in the family to be replaced by Baby Drake! :)

This picture cracks me up! To get Kenzie to hold still long enough for a picture we had to plop her in Kathy's body/boppy pillow. She looks like a huge over grown baby next to Drake!
Trying to get Kenzie to kiss Drake...
Drake didn't care for the kiss from his cousin! :)
Kenzie stayed awake for the 2.5 hours there and back! She was great in the car-very little whining and NO crying! Yes, we did have to endure almost 3 hours of children's songs playing but it was well worth it! In the car she started to say please and thank you with out being told to say it! It was the sweetest thing! I would give her a M&M and she would say thank you over and over again. I loved hearing it!

Looks like you guys had a great visit, nothing like a newborn to make your "baby" look huge:) Good job to Kenzie on the car ride (yes hours of kids songs are way better than tantrums:))
