Jens Baby Blessing

Mr. Jens 2 months old

weight: 12.8 lbs - 76%

height: 23.75 inches- 79%
head circumference: 38.5 inches- 17%

Something wrong with that picture?? he has a big body and a little head according to his percentiles but from his pictures and in person he looks porportionate. I'm actually glad his head is small just cause I had to push that head out of me! He is the perfect little boy and we love having him in our family, he's just soo chill all the time.

We had his baby blessing this past sunday- Sept 26, 2010 it was a wonderful day! Thanks for everyone that made the early morning drive to celebrate with us. Lots came even though I don't have pictures of everyone that was there, we missed those of you that couldn't make it. Jens wore the same blessing outfit that Sophie wore for hers but we forgot to take pictures of him in it before we changed him into Cory's blessing outfit after we got home from church, oops. We had brunch at our house afterwards and this is what I prepared for it (sorry forgot to take pictures):
Veggie Strata
Campanelle Pasta Salad
Melon and Mint Sugar Salad
Strawberry and Rosemary Scones
Black and White Choc Chip Cookies
and the normal cheese and cracker spread
The following pictures are from the blessing we were really horrible taking pictures there are more of Sophie than of Jens and we didn't even take one of just our little family, we were just having too good of a time! :)

Christopher and his girlfriend Nicole testing out our new porch swing- pics of updates on house will be posted later.

Sophie with Papapa


Sophie with her two favorite people- Mamama and Jens. She goes nuts every time she sees this crazy lady (she'll go to her over me) and will only give kisses and hugs to her little brother. Cory and I have to beg for her affection- we even have to pull out the big guns sometimes and pretend to be sad and crying just to get a hug from her.



Sophie LOVES giving Jens kisses! She is the "little mother" always watching out for him and making sure he has his hat, socks, or a toy. She loves to help burp him and clean his little face and is the perfect big sister already trying to share all of her things with him even though he's not quite old enough to play w/her toys or drink juice.

one of the things Sophie loves to do lately- silly girl


Jens playing on his gym mat, he is such a boy just perfectly content to be by himself instead of being with Mama.



Our happy little guy

Again going in for another kiss, she can't get enough of her little brother!

Cute, cute cute! Not good for my baby hunger issues, but cute nonetheless. And the menu? Next time you plan a shindig I'm a-comin'. Hope you decide to share some of those yummy sounding recipes!
