December at the jeppesens





Well December is really flying by! Xmas is here in 4 days. I am having a hard time getting in the spirit this year and I am not sure why. Kate is now up to 7lbs and is 5 weeks old. She has become colicky in the last 2 weeks. It has been a trial of my patients. By the end of the night I am pretty flustered. I keep telling myself this will go away soon (I think to keep my sanity). She is a fun addition to the house. Bailee still loves to hold her and change her diaper, ella likes her but gets tired of her at times. Bailee has lost her 2nd tooth this week. That brings her total to 8 teeth lost! She is very excited about that. Bailee is enjoying school and dance, not so much piano. She did however get a perfect score at festival, so maybe that will make her more excited about the piano. Ella is really enjoying preschool. She has really grown with her vocabulary and knowledge since she started. Thank you Mrs. Doggit! The girls are looking forward to Santa coming, but they are more excited for Disneyland. We are going the end of January. We are all looking forward to a trip. We have never been on a big trip since ella was born (hmm I wonder why :). At least we can get out of the snow and cold for a week. Yes I may be crazy taking a newborn on a trip but I am hoping she will be good. I am trying to adjust to being home. I had a lot of plans and projects to complete on maternity leave and have not got any done. I forget that a new born especially a colicky one, is a full time job! But that is what maternity leave is for I guess. Joe is working for the UPS company helping for the holiday season. I will try to get a picture of him in his uniform to post. It doesn't pay much but it gets him out of my hair. I don't stay too far from the office. I am working saturday and then a day next week for a few hours. I am looking forward to getting out of the house, and maybe it will help me keep my sanity! Otherwise we are very thankful for all of our blessings, friends, and family this year. I hope everyone has a safe and happy holiday season!! Here are some pics of the girls that katie wells took. They turned out very good!!
