Comments
How come no one comments anymore? I was searching for an old post just now and came across these comments. Funny stuff.
Jonathan said...- Well, it's official! It took several hours, one entire charge of my laptop battery and most of the only free Saturday I have had in 2006 but it was worth it--I now know more about the Jensen family than my own. More than allowing others to keep up, I think the real value of this internet thing is that you have a readily-available forum in which you can discuss spelling issues. Although you should be more vigilant because it is "Settlers of Catan" with a 'c' not a 'k'. I suspect David know that (how could he not) but failed to comment. I can't believe I read all that information--every posting, every comment. Now I have to ask myself, "Is there a population of people out there who would be interested in the excruciating minutia of my every single daily event?" For example, I am driving to Ohio tomorrow. I will be there for six weeks doing an internal medicine rotation. I've never been to Ohio before but I am glad I am going for work so at least I will have something to do during the day. Ya, somehow that just doesn't have the. . .panache of grandma's perm. Looks good though Grandma. I've always enjoyed trying to give the Jensen family a laugh and now I can do it from thousands of miles away and on my own schedule. Plus it is good to have goals and now I have a new one--to post more comments on here than Shauna. I am really going to have to abuse my access to government-owned computers to get the job done. I'm glad to know all is well. Jonathan

- YAYYY!!!! Jonalove has joined the blogging society!!! haha And in true Jonathan style. Aww, I love you, I'm so glad you wasted your whole Saturday on my blog. I know how precious little time you have, Dr. Liebig, and I'm flattered. And having you post on my blog might up my reader numbers. : ) PS And YOU of all people, should have your own blog. You'd have a fan base worldwide.

- Jonathan, so good to hear from you. You truely have a gift!! You make me laugh. Hope all is goign well, Dr. Liebig.

- Oh Johnathon. So educated, and yet so young. I have time-lots of time on my hands. Natalie does a good job with her blog, but her many friends are of the quiet persuasion. It truly is up to a few good people to help this blog along. I am going to start my own blog. I just need to grow some opinions first. :)

Yens
Baby Jens had his two month appointment last week. He is 11.5 pounds and 24 inches! I can't believe he grew 3 inches! He is 95% in height and 50% in weight. Quinn was about the same, just a little skinnier. We call Jens "fatty," because he seems so huge next to how Quinn was. I'll have to take some pics of his fat rolls, so cute.
Jens is smiling and trying to talk. The other day I got him to laugh for the first time! Man, a baby's laugh is the best sound there is. He has been sleeping horribly lately though. He wakes up every 15 minutes crying.... gas? Babies are such a mystery. So is breast milk. I never know what is going on with either of them.
Quinn loves his little brother and wants to hug and kiss him all the time. However, he is also being naughty- pinching, poking, hitting, just generally bugging Jens. He's taking out his anger at me on Jens. Poor defenseless Jens. However, I think Jens will have 20 pounds on him when they get older.

Quinn Anecdotes
Last night Quinn & I were reading a book with animals. He learned his animal sounds a year ago, but I was asking him the sounds anyway. What does a cow say? moo. What does a dog say? woof, woof. What does a pig say? Pig, pig. haha!
He has been sucking his finger the last week (regression from the baby, I'm guessing. Not sure what to do about it). I asked him why he was sucking his finger and he pulled it out of his mouth and said, "Quinn's milk." He calls what Jens drinks "mommy's milk."
He has been singing Hakuna Matata none stop for about a week. He sings "Cue tata" in perfect key.
When I respond to his questions with "mmm hmm or hmm?" he says "mom! talk!"
The other day I asked Quinn to go in his bathroom and wash his hands. He came back out a few minutes later with soaking wet hair and I asked why. He said "make hair cute."
Yesterday Quinn had a late nap and woke up CRANKY! He cried and cried and there was nothing Thurm could do to calm him down. He tried a movie, some soup, holding him, rocking him, taking him outside, etc. Finally, Thurm sat him down and said in frustration, "Quinn! Why are you crying?" And Quinn looks up at him teary eyed and says in a small voice, "no like soup." haha, I think you had to be there for that one.

Little bit o' August
I crochet a hat for Jens for his baby blessing. It turned out way too big and WAY too girly. I think it was a combo of being white and the pattern.
I found a pattern for these ballet slippers while I was looking for hat patterns and I had to make them. How cute are these!?! Now I just need a girl to give both the shoes and hat to.
Here's baby Jens at 5 and 6 weeks. These are it. I have only taken a few snapshots since he was first born. I feel bad that I haven't taken more. I'm going to try and make up for it today and do a 7 week photo session.
Isn't there just something about him that makes you think he's going to be a rowdy boy when he gets older? Like he'll be jumping motorcycles off rocks and playing in the dirt his whole life. Maybe its because he sort of reminds me of his uncle Wade in this picture.
