For once, I took no pictures of a family event. Shocked, I know I am.
Jake worked the previous night, and apparently the plan was to leave first thing in the morning and go down to Lydias' so he could sleep then eat, but I didn't wake up til 8:30 with Sydney and by the time we ate, showered, and got ready it was 11 and Sydney was ready for a nap. So we didn't end up leaving til 1 PM. Jake was so tired at this point, that I told everyone to just leave him alone or he'd snap. We ate, and then it was 4:30 and we had to make the decision to come home early because Jake at least needed a nap before Work that night. So it was more of a crazy day of driving than anything else. But it was good to see everyone and eat a nice meal too.

Visit to Las Vegas
On November 3rd and 4th we were in Las Vegas visiting Jake's dad. We just mostly hung around and talked. But on Sunday the 4th we headed into to town to the Mandalay Bay Shark Reef Aquarium. Sydney enjoyed it for what I could tell. The only time she showed any fear was when Jake was trying to get her to touch a Sting Ray in their petting pool.

Halloween
We didn't do much for Halloween....
Sydney and I went to Bradshaw Chevrolet around 4 PM because they were having a trick or treat and games for kids. Sydney was so enthralled with all the kids she could hardly do the games, but we got a toothbrush and 5 pieces of candy from them. Then we headed to my wards trunk or treat, where we had a chili dinner and Sydney followed all the kids running around the gym. She got more candy than I thought she would.

Parents Visit (Oct 26-28)
My parents got in late Friday night, so we talked while Sydney napped, they played with Sydney and then we went swimming on Friday. The pool was so fun, Sydney really enjoyed herself. Afterwords we came back home and eat KFC chicken and played CLUE.
Saturday-Jake didn't get much sleep that night, so he was finally asleep when my parents showed up. So they cleaned my house and then afterwords we walked to their hotel and back so Jake could get some quiet sleep. Jake woke up shortly after we got back, and we headed to St. George. Well first we stopped at Cal Ranch so mom could do some Christmas shopping. ...Jake got a couple things from there...
back on the road, I realized we forgot Sydney's stroller and this would get interesting since she was already starting to get tired.
We stopped first at famous footwear and they didn't have anything Jake like for Christmas so we went to sketchers-where Jake got another Christmas present (now if only Christmas were just around the corner).
Afterwords we headed to big 5 to see if we could find me any snow boots, but they didn't have any good ones in yet. Then for a late lunch/early dinner we went to Brick Oven. By this time Sydney was so tired. There food is wonderful. Sydney peas, olives, and garlic bread, and chocolate mousse. After that everything went on the floor.
5 minutes into the drive and she was asleep. Thank heaven she slept all the way home.
That night we played phase ten. Dad won, making it all the way to phase 7 before we quit.
Sunday-
We relaxed for a while, Jake cleaned out the fridge (which it looks amazing now) and we got ready for church. Sydney was a little wiggle worm-definitely going to need to change her nap time around to mesh with church. We only stayed for sacrament meeting because Sydney was tired and my parents need to get on the road for home. On the drive back to my house, which is like 2 minutes, Sydney fell asleep.
Before my parents left I wanted to make them carrot juice, well I did but I forgot to put the cup under the machine and so it went all over my counter....So Funny.
And that was the trip in a blog post.

Carving pumpkins
My camera is still gone, so in order to take pictures I had to use my cell phone-which as you can see doesn't take the best...
On October 18th we invited Wes and Nicole and Kayla to our house to eat pot roast and carve pumpkins.
Jake hadn't had very much sleep so he slept in until he had to get up for work.
I got my pumpkin carved before I had to start making Jake's dinner. Trying to keep Sydney out of everyones way and cook was very difficult. In the end it didn't work and I let her pull all the pumpkin insides out of the bowl. Messy. After the dinner was cooking, I sat down with some paint and we painted Sydney's pumpkin instead of carving it (we will do that later when Jake can carve his pumpkin to).

Sydneys 15 month update
Weight-20 lbs 12 oz and in the 18 percentile
Height-31 inches and in the 69 percentile
She had 2 shots, and I must say it's getting harder to watch each time.
Other than that my baby is getting big.
