Lounsbury/Craig/Mendoza baby shower

Saturday, August 27th we went down to Hurricane, UT for the Lounsbury/Craig/Mendoza baby shower.  Before the shower started we headed into St. George to go to Costco. then we headed to my mother in laws to wait for the guests to arrive. I was extremely tired because for the last couple days Sydney has decided that she will do this eat for 5 min and then sleep for two hours, no matter how much pushing or prodding i did. so my sleep tank was almost empty. so while Grandma was there to hold the little sweet pea, Jake and I took the opportunity to lay down and relax. Guests started to arrive and so she started to get passed around. She finally fell asleep, of course in someone else's arms :) But before the party could begin she has to up chuck all over Jake's Aunt Laura, I felt so bad for her. we got everything cleaned up and we started to play games while Jake lied on the floor with Sydney. We play name something to do with babies for every letter of Sydneys' first and middle name. then guess the baby food, then guess what chocolate bar is in the diaper. it was fun. then of course we got to open up the gifts, i made jake help me, after all she is his child too. we got a lot of great stuff, clothes, diapers (which are the best), toys, books, i was so excited for all of it. I love feeling like its Christmas. Then we got to eat the most beautiful looking cake, and it was chocolate too...yummy. Overall it was a wonderful day.
(look at her smile, its so cute)

when we got there Josh came right over and took her out of Lydias arms. it was cute and funny.

so proud of her
