"Love Is In The Air"

We had a very wonderful Valentine's Day. Dave woke up to a card and See's candy (he was a little disappointed about the candy because he was going to get me the same thing so he had to change his plans.) Then he went to work. Once Jocelyn and I woke up, we spent the day cleaning and getting ready for the fun evening events. We had a nice dinner with a roast, baked potatoes, and veggies. I had set up the table all nice and romantic-like with fake candles since we aren't allowed to have open flames in the apartment. Dave bought me a dozen white roses which are BEAUTIFUL and said he had something else but he has to make it since as already mentioned, he had to change his plans at the last minute since we had the same idea. Then we headed over to our neighbors, the Hudson's, for a fondue party and movie night (we watched "When In Rome." It was so much fun. Here are some pictures.

I could hardly wait to dress up Jocelyn on Valentine's Day because she had the cutest outfit. I love it! And I love the look she gave me.

Partay! Fondue style.

Jocelyn and her best friend, Sienna. They had matching onesies made by Robin in our ward.

Wow How Time Flies!

Jocelyn is now 2 months old. So let's get to the details. She now weighs 10lbs. 11 oz. (48%), is 23 1/2 in. long (90%), and has a head circumference of 15 1/2 in. (51%). So our little girl is pretty average in most areas but tall.

We've had a low key time since getting back from Utah for Christmas and New Years. We celebrated my 26th Birthday and Jocelyn's Blessing. I'm not going to go into too many details because our days are pretty uneventful. I just love watching Jocelyn grow. She has the most beautiful smile that just makes me laugh every time I see it because she opens her mouth so wide. She is so easy going and happy unless she is tired or hungry (or just got her immunizations, sad day). She started sleeping through the night at about 4 weeks old and is still going strong. And we aren't talking 7 or 8 hours straight. We're talking 10 hours straight. She takes 2 good naps during the day and some little power naps here and there to get through the evening until bedtime and then she is out at about 10. She eats about every 2 hours to make up for the lack of feedings during the night which I am just fine with. She is so good on car rides and often falls asleep. She also enjoys her bath time. I love this little girl and she has brought so much happiness to our life. Here are some pictures of the last little while. Enjoy!

I learned quickly to take off bows during nap times.

Reading with daddy is so exhausting.

She even has an adorable sad face.

We celebrated my birthday on Dave's half-birthday so we had to get a shot of him with "his" cake.

Happy 26th Birthday to me!

She has double cheeks and a double chin.

This is her serious face. Or she is surprised.

We blessed Jocelyn the same day as our neighbors blessed their little Sienna. They are BFF's.

Grandpa Larry, Grandma Joy, Mom, Jocelyn, Dad, and Great-Auntie Angela.

Great-Grandpa Artel, Grandpa Ray, Mom, Jocelyn, Dad, and Uncle Matt.

This is her in her blessing dress. I was also blessed in it.

I love her chubby cheeks.

We went to the zoo with our friends and saw lions...

and giraffes.

"Please no pictures."

Such a happy little girl.
