Catch up

I can't believe it has been so long since I have posted. Life at casa Jeppesen is very crazy and busy. Getting back into a routine after xmas took some time. Now I think we are back to normal for a while. Bailee is busy with her piano and dance. She is really enjoying school this year. She has a wonderful teacher who has pushed bailee and her reading this year. Bailee won 4th place in a local poetry contest and got to recite her poem in front of an audience today. That was fun for her. Ella is full of mischief as usual. She has all sorts of new phrases. The funniest is, " Mom I am going to laugh my beebs out." When asked where her beebs are she states in my armpits or in her belly button. And don't worry if she laughs a beeb out she has more to replace it. That is our ella, full of it. We don't know where she came from. She is also becoming a very independent little girl. She comes out with some really great outfits lately. The girls both started skiing this year. Bailee is onto the chair lift and keeping up with the other kids her age. She is really enjoying it. Ella went with us up to Targhee a few weeks ago and got to ski on the magic carpet. Which is for those of you that don't ski like a moving escalator up the little hill. She was very proud of herself that she could do it herself. She was skiing down the little hill by herself by the end of the day. It was a little out of control, but she could do it. The great thing about little kids is they have no fear! Joe is getting ready for spring work. He is ready to go back to work (and I am ready to have him back to work!) I am staying busy with work and kids. Work is starting to pick up at the Medical Center. I am working a few weekends a month at the ER at EIRMC. IT is so great. I am learning a lot and it is out of control busy, which I love. I feel very grateful for a job this week. I hear of people every week that are getting layed off. Also in light of the terrible earthquakes and tsunamis that are happening all around us I feel grateful for a safe place to live. As much as I complain about the weather here, I guess we are lucky to live in Rexburg Idaho!

Looks like those girls are growing way too fast.

Give the girls kisses for me, and i'll call you the second we get back safely on firm ground (speaking of earthquakes and tsunamis). Bye:)
