My Baby is One!!

My sweet but wild baby turns one today!! It makes me sooo sad that I am shocked I am so sad but I am a little happy too cause I am excited for her to get bigger so she can develop more of a personality! I feel bad cause I had her doctor apt scheduled for today and she got all her shots but one so 4...she cried so hard, it broke my heart and she never cries when she gets shots. I could tell my doctor did not agree that i am waiting for her to get her MMR shot till she turns 2 and I am anti flu shots so I can tell she was fuming inside hehe other than that London is very healthy and growing very fast.
She weighs 27lbs and 7oz. She is huge!! she is in the 97% for weight, height and head.

*She can stand up all my herself from the floor and just stand there for a min or two
*She walks along the couch
*She is trying to climb on more things if she figures it out
*She says ma ma and da da but only says da da now...she is obsessed with saying it and now it sounds like she is trying to say, what's that! Its cute.
*She wont walk to us and she does not like us to hold her arms and help her walk, she gets all smiley and silly and falls to the ground.
*She has found her voice and is aware that she can squeal and man oh man does she!! I want to rip my ears off!!

UMM I cannot think of anything else super new that she does. We love her to death and even though she is a very ACTIVE and CURIOUS child...so much more than Sydney was, she is very sweet and kind and always just loves to play and loves when we have people over.

These pictures are not her eating her cake...we are waiting to have her party when we go home to Portland on Saturday cause my whole family will be there but we do have a couple of presents for her to open today when she wakes up from her nap. These are just her eating pancakes which she LOVES!! I usually cut them up in small pieces but she always wants the big one not cut up so one day I just let her have it and she was in heaven. I just thought she looked cute eating in her high chair!!

Trick or Treating!!

Halloween was a lot of fun this year. Sydney had a good time. She lasted a lot longer. Last year we were only out for a half hour maybe and she wanted to go inside to open her candy but this year we were out for at least an hour if not longer. The weather really was PERFECT! Not too warm and not too cold. I only wish I would have taken some pics of the girls together in their costumes. I am not sure what I was thinking, obviously not a whole lot! GRRR There is always next year I guess!





Sydney always turns her head right before her picture is about to be taken..grrr

My little Lion!



Sydney was Thumbalina!

London's first sucker...she was doing pretty good till the last 20 min or so. I had to give her something to keep her in the stroller cause neither of us wanted to hold her cause she weighs a TON so I gave her one and she LOVED it of course.


Hope everyone had a HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!

Carving The Pumpkins

We carved our pumpkins on Friday night. Once a month we have our pizza/movie night with Sydney so we let her stay up late (which does not happen often cause I am a stickler about bed time) and we watch a movie so we thought we should just carve our pumpkins at the same time. It really was Dillon doing the carving but we helped with getting the insides out. We took a picture of London with the pumpkins before we got started cause she needed to get to bed and she kept eating the pumpkin...YUCK...there is nothing she will not eat! I forgot to take pics of us actually doing that cause I am retarded but after we cleaned up then I remembered hehe but you get the idea!




These are Dillon's awesome pumpkins that he carved!! The pictures really don't do them justice. They look soooo much better in person and when it's dark and they are lit up. He spent so many hours working on them before our ward Halloween party. Sometime after we went to bed on Halloween night, someone stole them and everyone else's on the block. Dillon was bummed and Sydney bawled like a baby but at least it was after Halloween.







The girls with their loot that Dillon's mom sent in their Halloween package! London would only keep those silly glasses on for a second and then she just wanted to attack them. When Dillon and I put them on she would get all shy like she did not know who we were!

The Pumpkin Patch!!

Last weekend we went with my friend and her family to the pumpkin patch. Her daughter and Sydney are good friends so they had a great time playing together. It was the best pumpkin patch I have ever been too. We could have been there all day but we did not get there till 4 or so cause London had to take her nap but the farm was huge! Sydney's favorite part was all the rides. She could have gone on them all night but the lines were getting pretty long. We did go on a roller coaster which she loved but was a little afraid. It was pretty bumpy. I was sad cause Dillon did not get any pictures cause he was video taping. We will definitely have to go back next year and be there all day!!

There are lot's of pictures!!



Half way through the night London's diaper leaked and of course I did not bring another pair of shorts. Good thing it was not cold.



I don't know why this picture turned out a weird color, maybe cause it was so bright from all the lights...Sydney could have gone around 1,000 times if we let her! She loves the carousel!



The petting zoo was kind of lame cause I thought the kids could go in and actually be with them but they were fenced in and you could pet them through the bars!



They had pig races which were so funny cause the pigs had no idea what to do half of the time!! The kids loves watching it!




Riding on the hay ride..the sun ruined most of the pictures!! GRRR
