Time to update :)

I decided randomly one day I needed to update my pics of the girls, so we quickly put on cute matching clothes and attempted some pictures before anyone got too fussy :) And I have to say it is VERY difficult to get 3 little girls to look up and smile all at the same time! haha They are so fun though. I have 3 amazing kiddos! They are all so different and keep me on my toes!

Tylee 4 Years Old

Tylee is the greatest (slightly bossy) big sister ever! She is growing up so quickly, she will start kindergarten the end of July and I am still not sure how I feel about that. She is always wanting to learn new things and asks "why" A LOT! She loves to do what mom is doing and cant wait to be a grown up. She seems very strong willed and tough, but she is such a sweet girl and gets her feeling hurt quite easily. One of Tylee's favorite things right now is being in "style" haha she always gets ready for the day and has to say see how stylish I am. She is always making me laugh with the things she comes up with.

Rylee is just fun! She is always playing, smiling and being goofy. She is learning about attitude from Tylee and it is so funny to see her act almost identical to Tylee in certain situations. She loves Minnie Mouse, Dora and her sisters! :) This little girl can operate most electronics better then all of us in this house. She is imaginative and could play for hours by herself. She is usually pretty independent but lately she tells me " I neeeeed you mommy." Talk about making me stop what I am doing and just love her. Skylee 9 Months Old 

This little girl has got to be the sweetest thing ever! Since the day she was born I knew she was different. 

I always tease that Tylee and Ry were born with attitude, and the minute I held Skylee I knew she was my peace maker. She has brought so much joy into our home, she is always happy, giving tons of smiles and kisses. I could sit and hold and stare at her forever. She is learning and growing so quickly its kind of sad she is not my little baby anymore!  She loves to watch her sisters and now that she is mobile she follows them everywhere.

 Things are good! Life is busy as always, Cory is working full time(and LOVING his job!!) and still going to school. I am also taking classes and trying to keep up with daily tasks. Our girls are growing up on us it is crazy!

Baby # 3

I guess its time to make it official to all :) We are expecting baby GIRL number 3 July 18th! Tylee is way excited! She keeps asking me if its July yet, she is excited because she is bigger so she can do more with the baby. She is way cute! Rylee of course doesn't really get it yet but she understands baby and rubs her belly when we say baby or she will point to the ultrasound pictures hanging on the fridge. Cory and I are both excited, time is going by quickly though! Baby is healthy and growing well.

Tylee starts dance!

So Tylee has been asking forever to go to a ballet class, and I had looked up a few online but they were pretty far away and so expensive I couldn't really justify it. We bought her ballet slippers and hoped she would be content pretending on her own.... No such luck hahaha but after we got back home from our Christmas vacation to Utah I decided I better find her something. She was always playing ballet, she would get all dressed up and put on a show for us and everyone that would watch her! She is so full of personality, it is so fun to watch her! I found one just up the street from us and for a great price, so this last Thursday was her first class and she absolutely loved it! She goes for just over and hr, and they do a little bit of tap dancing, ballet and gymnastics. She was so stinkin cute! She was excited beyond belief, she was so into it, and couldn't stop asking when she could go back! So we now have a little dancing girl!

We really did have Christmas

So I was all set to write a big post on our awesome Christmas vacation and post pics but as I put my memory cards in I realized I only have video! So I will have to do a Christmas post when my mom sends me the pics she has! But we had a wonderful time in Utah with our families. The girls loved being around all the cousins, and playing non stop! It was such a nice vacation for us all! Although we are glad to be back home and into our routine. :)

Thanksgiving!

Well Its been a couple weeks lol, so I better update! Things were crazy with Thanksgiving! We went to Utah and got to spend time with family, and just relax! I am glad Cory was able to go with us, he NEVER has a time when there is not something going on lol. So we just did whatever we wanted no plans were made it was sooo nice. We had Thanksgiving at my parents house with all of our family it was really nice and a lot of fun! After dinner the "ads" were spread all over all the tables haha its was funny we were all looking to see if we just had to have something, and then if it was worth it to go out and get in line. Of course Cory is a big black friday shopper. I think its his favorite time of the year :) So we made a list (mainly christmas toys for the girls) and headed out. We left my parents house at 7p.m. and I think we got back home around 1a.m. My brother Cayden went with us so we left my parents with his 3 girls (ages 7,5,4) and our 2 girls! So they  had their hands full, but said it was fun and went well. We ended up with all the stuff we wanted to get and a little more! The next day we went to Hurricane, we got to see Brett and Xi'a it was fun to visit. Tylee had a lot of fun with Aunt Xi'a. Cory ended up helping with some computer issues and made plans to do more the next day. So Tylee and Cory went out the next day to help/visit, and go shooting, while Rylee and I headed with my parents to help Cayden and the girls move into their new home! We had a great weekend with family and cant wait for Christmas to go back and see more of the family :)

Minnie/Paisley

For quite a while now Tylee has asked about getting a dog! I think at least once a day we have heard "when I have my very own puppy..." I started hinting to Cory, to see how he felt because I would have a dog in a heartbeat but Cory doesn't really like them. After a few weeks of hinting to get the just of things, I finally came right out and said I think we should get a dog for the girls (Tylee). To my surprise Cory was pretty on board with it. He just had a few minor stipulations, had to be an outside dog, small/medium size, minimal shedding lol and he didn't want to have to clean up after it (pretty fair). So last Thursday after dropping Tylee off at school, I thought Ry and I could go see if we could find an animal shelter or someplace just to browse, to get an idea of a "type" of dog we would like. We went to the Maricopa animal shelter and it just so happened they were closed that day. So I had another little errand to run, then after Ry was tired so we decided to wait till another day. In the meantime I started looking online for a breed we might like. Saturday Cory ended up having to work so the girls and I decided to go out and have a "fun" day. We went to the mall and to lunch, other little shopping outlets and mommy was getting tired! lol Tylee wanted to look at animals and we happen to be driving by a Petsmart, and there was an adoption going on. We stopped and of course had to pet/hold the animals. As we were leaving we saw this cute little black dog. As we talked to the people we found out she was a pug/chiuawa mix(they think). So she was as big as she would get. She was 2 yrs old and her name was Paisley. I of course thought she would be perfect just what we were looking for. Ry loved her and was excited petting her. Tylee wanted to take her home then. I got more information and told them I would have to talk to my hubby :) I called Cory and he said he would come back down with us after work to look at her. I found out they had a foster type program, so we could actually take the dog home and make sure she would be ok with us then choose to adopt her after. The girls and I headed out to get "dog" stuff, and as long as she was not adopted by that night we could take her home. Tylee was sooo excited! She decided we needed to call her Minnie though, because that was a great name lol (They love to watch Mickey Mouse) Cory came home from work and we went back down and Minnie was still there. I filled out some paper work and she was ours for now. We are having a blast, she is such a good dog. She is a little shy, but quiet and sweet. Tylee has been outside all day checking on her dog. It looks like she will be a perfect fit for our family! Here are a few pics from our adventure to the park today

Whenever we pull the camera out this is the face we get!
