I'd suggest you get the jacking pucks and lift at the points. I could have sworn that there is a warning against lifting in the center area that can cause damage to the suspension. Maybe I'm wrong but I know that it's not hard to damage a body panel with stress if you do it wrong.
You may want to reference the service manual and double check it. I know I got my jacking pucks right away so I didn't make a mistake.

Jack it up like pictured here, I like it better than jacking at the puck points, the farther I am away from the body the better

Only thing I would suggest different is to buy a set of Rhino ramps and use those, instead of drive up blocks of wood.....
