But we packed a lot into those short couple of weeks. Right after my school year finished we jumped on a plane and headed to Utah for our nephew Blake's baby blessing. Sienna and I have been practicing sign language for plane so once we parked our car she was able to sign away at all the planes that were landing. She loved being on the plane, but not on our laps. Now that she is walking she wants to explore all over.
Luckily people were kind to us and smiled as we walked up and down the plane.
Here is my cute nephew Blake. The blessing was very nice and we were glad we could be there.
Here are the proud parents.
Sienna loved her new cousin and could find his nose. . .
but wasn't quite sure what to do when he cried.
We were able to visit Grandpa Swenson and visit his "drawer of candy". Thank you for the Recess Peanut Butter cups, they are definitely my favorite.
Joyce Caleb and Dallin showed us a good time. They took us to the Children's museum in SLC and to an aquarium where we saw many cool fish and were able to touch a sting ray.
Sienna's favorite thing to do while she was in Utah was to jump on the trampoline with her cousins Dallin and Caleb. It was her first time but she loved it!
Then we were back on a plane for CA, but not for long. After resting for a couple of days Sienna and I went on another trip to see Mimi and Papa in New Jersey.
Mimi decided Sienna needed a big girl hair cut so we gave her some bangs. what do you think of my little girl's (no longer a baby) hair cut? She was just excited to hold the comb. She likes to comb her own hair.
After a crazy day of car issues we picked up my mom's sporty new Toyota and headed down to see Dave and Nicole's new place. It had a pool where we decided to spend most of the day.
Sienna loves to swim and the kiddie pool was just right for her since it is only a foot deep.
Swim with me Nicole!
Later that evening Dave and Nicole took us to a beautiful church, but unfortunately there was a wedding and we were only able to get a few quick photos in the gardens.
Later that week My mom took Sienna and I to the Turtleback Zoo. Sienna loved the animals and was so excited that she could pet them. Her favorite animal was the pony, but they wouldn't let her have a pony ride because she was to young. They suggested the carousel which was not the real thing, but Sienna seemed to like it anyways.
"Wow he is so big when you are this close!"
We are back home now and school is starting again tomorrow but we sure did have fun this vacation. Thanks mom and dad, for showing us a good time. We can't wait for you to visit us next time.
Thanks Aunt Jenny for hosting such a fun get together. I forgot to bring out my camera until the very end so there aren't many swimming pictures, but I did get some posed pictures. 
"Mom I don't want to wear this thing on my head, even if it does look so cute!"
"I said I don't want to wear it, so you may be able to hold my hand and make me wear it but you can't make me smile."
That night Steve and I went out to celebrate my birthday and Sienna got to stay and play with her grandma Judy.
Aunt Tami and Aunt Kim helped watch Sienna too and with all the attention she got she didn't even notice
Aunt Tami took Sienna inside by the food. 
"Mmmm . . . this tastes good!"
"Do you want some Aunt Tami?"
