The Jebber Family Blog

Well, I just have to say that when I posted the blog about "me", and what people think of when they think of me I had no idea you people were going to bring me to tears. Thank you for saying such beautiful things. I really wasn't "fishing" for that. I was more trying to see if I had an identity of sorts around my friends and family. (You know a cook, a wine drinker, a drama queen.) Meaning when I think of Marie, I think of crafting and unreal creative talents that I wish I had the drive to do. When I think of Rissa, it's fun and living life to it's fullest potential, (why have I never done those things?) Jodi, (the actress)she's making it happen. She's doing what I always wanted to do. I have such wonderful friends that I could go on and on about, but I am only choosing to mention my bloggers. It's amazing how life happens. It is amazing how something you always thought you wanted wasn't what you wanted at all. My life has thrown me such a beautiful curve ball. I am a wife. I am a Mommy. I am a friend. I am so happy!

I had to put this link up on the blog. My cousin Hayley turned myself and my babies into dancing elves, and it's the cutest thing I've ever seen. Watch the Jordyn elf, it's so life like! Have I mentioned how much I love my cousins. I do have the greatest family on the planet. They are such great girls (ahem...women) WOW! I am just so proud of both of them. I love that they want to be a part of the kids lives, and the kids adore them. I know Hay Hay, we'll work on Connor calling you by YOUR name soon! I'm adding a picture of Marissa because she wasn't made into an elf at that time. I just want to thank you two for being so wonderful. You must have had some great parenting!

She said Dada! She won't stop! I do think I may have heard a faint mama in between the Dadada's, but I can't be sure. I always knew she'd be a Daddy's girl!

I am thankful for, little fingers and little toes. Big toothless smiles, the everlasting sleepless night. I am thankful for so much. I never in a billion years thought I would be this happy. I am thankful for it all. The great, not so great and down right miserable. It's all mine!!

This is my first morning since my sleep intervention with Jordyn. I'm so tired. She slept about 1 1/2 hours at a time. UGH! It will get better. And even if it doesn't, I can take it. She won't be a baby forever.
I'm so excited about Thanksgiving. I love cooking big meals! I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
Love the Jebbers

Can you believe my little angel is 6 months already. she is half way to one. She is the most amazing baby. With her 2 teeth and constant smile she brightens up my heart every time I look at her...Which is all the time. She is such a big girl. She is so tall, but dainty at the same time. Still not sleeping through the night, but she will soon I just feel it. She is so good all of the time, that my sleepless nights don't seem to bother me as much as they did before. She really is my perfect little person. I am getting a kick out of the girlie clothes and outfits, and SHE truly enjoys being fashionable. I am so blessed, and am so happy that our family is healthy and happy for Christmas. Thank you God for my life!

I believe in Santa. I now have proof he exists. I saw him last night in my sons eyes. It was wonderful. We had a wonderful family outing with our Pamboukis's. We all went to the North Pole upon the Polar Express. Other than no snow we had such a great time, and hearing Connor screaming with Reese for Santa was one of the best moments of my life so far. I got so teary eyed watching him get so excited about everything. He did however clam up when the big man himself came over and asked him what he wanted for Christmas. I guess I'd clam up if some creepy man in a huge red suit came up to me and asked me to sit on his lap. Seriously though, Christmas takes on a new meaning this year. I get to believe again, and hope with my kids. HOw wonderful is that!

On Friday, Patrick, Connor, Jordyn and I rang the bells outside of the Mustard Seed Market for the Salvation Army. I think we made a good chuck of change for them. The kids were a great touch. Connor didn't last the whole hour, he wanted me to show him the puppies. He's 2, we didn't think he'd last as long as he did. Jordyn was an angel and just sat there and smiled at everyone. Could we expect anything less?

My Dad and Jenny were married last night. It was such a beautiful ceremony. For those of you who were unaware, I was ordained as a minister online, and I officiated the ceremony. I have never seen my Dad so happy, and just full of bliss. He truly deserves this happiness. Congratulations Dad and Jenny, We love you!
