Nananananineteen, 19, 19!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LOVE MUFFIN!!!
Jensen was born at 5:30 p.m. after only 12 hours of being in labor and being induced. He wanted to cook extra long. I really don't know how to have a baby naturally, I've been induced with all the boys. He was actually due on Dec. 4...(10 days late!!) He was a real kicker inside me and was a sweet lovey baby and is still now. Jensen is so affectionate, even in the 7th and 8th grade (when most kids, let alone boys want NOTHING to do with their moms) he wasn't embarassed to be around his mom in front of his friends. He is always kind and considerate and sooooo loveable. Ask him to do Nacho Libre...or Napoleon Dynamite...soooo funny!!!
Love sleeping babies!
One of my very favorite things about Jens is: He is a good sport. No, not just a good sport, a great example of what every player should play like. He's told me before that he loves after losing a game he makes sure that he is the first one to say good game and shake hands. It's easy to be a good sport when you win, it's when you lose where you can show integrity and the sportmanship of a player. This is George and Jens hugging after playing an intense game of the two high school rivals in Provo...Timpview and Provo. Jens and George play on the same club team during the fall. Provo lost but Jens is still showing that he is a Great sport on the field.
This photo is classic Jens. It's his face for a lot of photos
OR these two below...
These girls were always just friends, he was always playing with them for the camera.
Sweet baby Jensie...3 months
This is silly Jens.
This is animal lover Jens.He LOVES animals!! Here is a great story that depicts this:

Jens and Adi the 1st.


Very first professional photo of Jens. 4 weeks old.
Here is getting ready for my mission Jens. He just got his hair cut so he could submit this nice photo for his mission papers. This is the "before" photo with long beautiful flowing hair...



Here is "soccerball" Jens. When he was little this is how he would call soccer. Well, every other sport is called something with a "ball" on the end...baseball, basketball, football, volleyball, softball...why not soccer ball. Funny stuff. This is Jens' team in Iowa in a national game against the #1 team in the nation. He is heading the ball into the net making the only goal during their stint at nationals.




During a ballroom tour to California 09, Jens and Cristin doing their jive on California Adventure stage.





Happy Birthday Jensen!!! WE LOVE YOU!!

Happy Birthday Jens!!!

We love and miss you. You are a great person and your mom's story about your sportsmanship is not surprising. It is admirable.
