I'm not using my passport as proof of citizenship; do I still need to send in a copy of all the pages?

I am sending in a copy of both front and back of my birth certificate. I scanned two pages out of my passport with the stamps (about 16 stamps total). They are out of an older passport (stamps are within the two years) and I used that passport because it has accumulated more stamps than my new passport. Am I okay to just do the two pages of passport stamps; since it's just evidence of my being there in the past two years?

Our petition was an I130, but we only sent the pages with stamps as well and it was fine (since we also used my BC for citizenship proof), can't imagine it differing from in an I129f so should be fine

Thank you so much! I'm sending the application off tomorrow, just wanted to be sure. :)

I used my passport for proof of citizenship, but I used my fiance's Canadian passport for the stamps in hers for the two-year proof. I just took a scan of the bio page to show try and show whose it was, and then the pages with the stamps.
