Well for those of you who don't know I am pregnant. We are expecting another member of our family November 23rd. Everyone pray for a boy. This pregnancy has been very different from my other two. I usually lose weight, um nope that hasn't happened. I still am sick every morning so far but I still can eat. The difference this time has been the fatigue. After a day of work I have to lay on the couch the rest of the night. I sure hope this gets better. I have too much to do!! My girls are very excited. Bailee thinks it's a boy and ella thinks it's a girl. We were surprised that it happened so quickly this time. It was almost 4 years to get ella here. We are hoping to find out next week what this baby is. I am going to phoenix for a week on the 22nd and really need to know so I can start shopping.

I am so lucky to work with such a great group of people! This pic I stole from Mary's blog. It was taken at the chamber dinner a few weeks ago. RMC got the beautification award and Dr. Z got the medical professional of the year award. There is no one that deserves this award more than him. I enjoy going to work everyday. Don't worry my good ER friends I still miss you too! Our family is staying crazy busy as usual. Ella is going to turn 3 next week. Where has the time gone? Joe is getting back to work and that has been good for him. I am very ready for summer! I can't believe in april we are still shoveling snow. I am ready for the sunshine!!!

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!
