Wedding Bliss

On Sunday January 18th our two closest friends, Theresa and Kyle were married. The wedding was at a country club and was absolutely lovely. It was a beautiful ceremony including a sand ceremony which was very unique representing the blending together of their two families. Everyhting about the reception was wonderful. The flowers were gorgeous and the food was delicious. We couldn't be happier for two people who are so special to us and are glad we were able to be a part of their big day. We wish them a lifetime of happiness together and can't wait to meet the new addtion joining their family.

Happy New Year

I know I am a little late but I want to wish everyone a Happy New Year! My mother in-law came and stayed with us for 2 weeks. What a huge help she was, she allowed me to get some much needed sleep each day after a long night. I am now adjusting to life at home alone with my little guy and things are going great. He is a very good boy. He is very quiet and sleeps well and of course is a good eater. He is a true pleasure and I am enjoying our time alone together. Eric unfortunately had to go back to work after the first week home. We miss him during the day but check in frequently. The first thing daddy does when he gets home is wash his hands and holds his son. Our first New Year's as a family was spent at our friends Theresa and Kyle's with their family and my in-laws. This was Cooper's first outing and he enjoyed it, so did we.

Proud Daddy!

Cutting the umbilical cord was the coolest experience I have ever had.

Cooper's Arrival

And finally the news you have all been waiting for...the arrival of Cooper. On Monday December 22nd I went into labor and was admitted into the hospital at 5:30 p.m. Things were beginning to progress and with the help of an epidural I was trying to get some rest for the miracle that was about to take place. It was about midnight and I was 6 centimeters dialated and our little guy went into fetal distress for the second time. I was then immediately rushed into an emergency c-section. Everything went fine and on December 23, 2008 at 1:10 a.m. Cooper Todd Jensen was born, weighing in at 6 pounds 8 ounces and 18 inches long. He is PERFECT!! To add to the experience we went home as a family on Christmas Night-I couldn't have asked for a better Christmas present!
