2 Months!

Sydney had her 2 Month doctors appointment! I was warned about the shot situation but it still broke my heart. Mom and Baby are recovering successfully! :) Here are her 2 month stats:

12 LBS 13 OZ

23.75 Long

I would like to think she is picture perfect of a healthy baby!

I had to include this picture to show of my friend Jody's amazing skills! She made the dress, the shoes, and the blanket Sydney is laying on! She looked adorable for church! The bow came off because I think it was cutting off circulation! :)
I LOVE this picture! Our little gangster! We had to keep her nice and bundled as we shopped for a Christmas tree in the rain! She is such a champ and just chilled out in her car seat!

Sydney's Blessing Day

I love her chubby cheeks!

Some of her cousins!

After a long day! She is exhausted!

We blessed Sydney in church on Sunday. It was a special day as we were surrounded by family and friends. Sydney was such a good baby and slept through the whole blessing and sacrament. We feel so blessed to have Sydney in our lives and to have the love and support from such amazing family and friends.

Amanda & BJ Wedding

Mr. and Mrs. Peterson

This last Saturday my baby sister got married! It was such a great day and weekend! We were so lucky to be there and witness this marriage of two amazing people. They are going to be such a great team and I really couldn't be more happier for two people! I didn't get too many good pictures because I was in the wedding, but you have to check out her photographers blog - www.kameejune.com/theblog/ - she has amazing pictures! They are such a beautiful couple - it's really not fair to the rest of the world!

A Special Bond

Sydney is such a good baby! I love watching her sleep!
Taking naps together

She honestly loves being with Jeff!

Rocking to sleep

And lets not forget lots and lots of kisses!

Jeff and Sydney really have a special bond!

It really doesn't get much better than watching the two of them together!

I am so grateful that Jeff is such an amazing dad and he loves being with Sydney. I can always find them hanging out together watching ESPN, listening to ITunes, reading books, or just chilling on the couch.

I love my little family and all these special moments!

Grandma and Grandpa Jensen

Grandma and Grandpa Jensen came down to see little Sydney last week and it was so fun having them! I had no idea how much I really needed help! Jeff's mom, Lee, saved me and it was so fun to have someone to hang out with all day! She was the best! After I was done with the 3 AM feeding she would come take Sydney and soothe her while I went to bed. It is so amazing how much better sleep you can get when you know your baby is in good hands! I wouldn't have survived that week without her!

THANKS LEE! I OWE YOU!

Our Little Pumpkin!

Halloween was mellow for us this year! I was impressed that we even got out and went to my parents house. Here are a couple pictures from our Halloween! Sydney was 11 days old! Sydney and her cousin Stella both with their pumpkin hats on!
This picture cracks me up! She looks terrified of the skeleton!

Grandma and Grandpa Draeger with their littlest pumpkin!

The happiest mom and dad!

Sydney Dara Jensen is here!!!!

Sorry it took so long to get these pictures on the Blog. I am not only a rookie dad, but a rookie blogger. Stephanie is catching up on some sleep, but I wanted to share some of our pictures with everyone. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to write here, but I hope you all enjoy the pictures of our perfect little girl.....
