Paul and Katie

Here are my two sweet babies. I feel so blessed to have both of these beautiful and precious children in my life. We are a very happy family.

First Pics of Katie

Here is a video of the first few pictures of Katie. When I get all my pictures in order, I will post another video of Paul and Katie.

Baby Katie

She's Here

I can't upload pictures from the computer I am on right now, so you will have to wait for those until tomorrow. Kathryn Claire Jensen was born at 5:46 am on December 26, 2008. She weighed 7 lbs 13 oz and was 18.5 inches long. She is a doll with big cheeks and a cry that sounds like a damsel in distress. Big brother Paul is unphased by the change in our family. He keeps right on with his own business, however, he is aware that baby Katie is around. We are all doing well health wise. Labor and delivery were quite fast. Recovery is still happening and will continue to happen for some time I think, but it is going faster than with the first one. Aside from being a bit sleep deprived, we are so happy to have this little girl with us. A few things that are funny about all this is that now Paul seems to weigh about a hundred pounds after only holding 7 pounds of baby all weekend. And 2 1/2 year old butts and diapering is very different from newborn butts and diapering.

Old pics

I was going through some older pictures and it was fun to remember different times in my life. I remember this being one of my favorite pictures of me. It was a good, fun time in my life. I was 19 years old and was about to start my second year at BYU. I had cut my hair really short (it was long before) and I was visiting Utah friends. I had moved back home to San Diego for the summer. I think this was a pivotal summer for me. Cutting my hair super short was like becoming a new person. All of a sudden I was more mature and more outgoing at the same time. Anyway, it was just fun to remember so I thought I'd share.

In one year

I can't believe how much Paul has grown in just one year. He has such a chubby baby face in his pictures from last fall. Now he still has chubby cheeks, but is looking more and more like a little boy. The one on top is this year. Bottom is last year.

Animoto Video

Here is a video I made of Paul on animoto.com. My friend works for them and introduced me to the site. It is fun and VERY easy to use. Everyone should give it a try.
