Jensen Family Reunion!

We had a Family Reunion last week-end for my mom's side. It was so much fun, I hadn't seen some of my family since our last reunion 5 years ago! It was a really hot all week-end. We played tons of games, ate lots of good food, had a baseball tournament and Jayna went on our family's float for the parade, Kepler and I were just watching. It was great to see everyone, but it was a little bit overwhelming for Jayna. She was so shy all week-end and only started warming up a little bit the last day we were there. She'll have to get used to living close to lots of family and having more people around. We also got a chance to make a quick visit to Gibb's Grandma Fitzner while we were down there too. Jayna has met almost all her great grandparents now!

Owie

Jayna got her first real owie today when she tripped outside and scraped up her knee. She was really brave and didn't even start crying until we got in the car and saw the blood, and then it was all over. She was so upset and kept saying "Owie, it hurts!". We got her a Winnie the Pooh band-aid for it, that she picked out. Then she kept telling everyone "owie, pooh"... I think next time we'll go with a different kind of band-aid.

Jayna's New House

Why do we even buy our kids toys? Jayna was entertained for so long pretending this huge box was her house. Opening and closing the door and saying "Hello" and "Bye-bye" and knocking on the door. I need to remember this before I go crazy buying her presents for her birthday in September.

Bye-bye

Hello!

Happy Anniversary

Gibb and I have been married for 6 years! It must feel like a really long time to me because on the way out to dinner I said "I can't believe we've been married 7 years, that's so long!"
We spread our date out over 2 nights because we thought that Kepler would miss us too much if we were gone all night long. Friday night we went and saw Get Smart, and it was actually pretty funny! Then on Saturday night we got dressed up and went out to this awesome restaurant called Century Grill. It was the best dinner we've had in a while. (Thanks for the baby-sitting Mom!)

Happy 6th Anniversary Babe, I love you!

1 month

Kepler is already 1 month old! He is a big boy and is growing so fast, he already weighs 9 lbs. 3 oz.!! He's a pretty good baby, and hopefully he'll be good on his first 5 or 6 hour road trip to my Grandma's for a family reunion this week-end!

A beach in Edmonton!

Yesterday we went to a little Lake in Jo and Dave's community. It had been such a hot day so it felt so good to get our feet wet and cool off. Jayna didn't like the water, but had fun in the sand and on the playground. It was so nice because it's a private beach so it wasn't too crowded.

Kepler's Blessing Day

We had such a great day for Kepler's blessing. We had everyone in Gibb's whole family there for it, including his Grandma, and my mom was there. The fact that Kepler had a HUGE blowout in his blessing outfit right before (we have Sacrament meeting last) just made it a little more exciting! Of course we did a little photoshoot of Kepler in his adorable outfit and got some pretty good family pictures. It was a really special day!

3 weeks

Kepler is still getting chubby and is starting to be awake more. He loves to be bundled up in a blanket and snuggled. So far he seems pretty easygoing, as long as he gets to eat a lot! We love having him around!

Gibb snuggling with our babies, he's so lucky!

Cute hair!

Jayna's hair has been getting so long! I could do an actual ponytail in it!

But it was starting to look a little bit too much like a mullet again so I thought it was time for another hair cut. I wasn't too excited about it since Jayna hates getting her hair done and has a really sensitive head. But we went to this great place for kids that has movies playing and fun chairs for them to sit in and the lady was so fast, Jayna didn't even cry! She even let her blow dry her hair and put a braid it in, so cute! Jayna picked out the beads herself and got sparkles in her hair at the end. We were trying to make it a really positive experience for her so we kept telling her that her hair looked so cute and that she looked pretty. After that she was so proud of her new hair and was showing off her braid to everyone and saying "Cute!". It ended up being such a fun little outing, I can't wait for her next haircut now!

2 weeks

Kepler is starting to get the cutest chubby cheeks ever and I can't leave them alone! He is getting big so much faster than Jayna did, probably because this kid loves to eat and is really good at it! He has already gained just over a pound, and now weighs 7 lbs. 6 oz.

This is one of the quilts I made for him

This is the cute tiger outfit my mom bought Jayna and now is getting passed on
