Juice king

Recent conversation with Phoenix: 

Phx "I am the juice king. Guess what my favorite food is."

Cory "Juice?"

Phx "No, pancakes." 

He said it with a total attitude, too, like it was the most obvious thing ever. 

Had to share

A cute pic of skylee sleeping. She was apparently too tired to finish her book.

It's alive!

Really, I know it's been a long time. We have had a lot of life changes since October! I started teaching preschool part time at a private school, called Challenger. It goes through 8th grade. They have an incredibly intense curriculum and way of teaching so it's been a steep learning curve, but really fun. The kids both go there and it is amazing the things they have learned. Phx is reading pretty fluently now, skylee is learning to sound out words.
Also, we are expecting baby 3 at the end of may! Another boy to be named later. We're excited.
Finally, Cory started a new job two weeks ago. He is the Human resources director for Ashley Manor Care Centers. It is a huge change from working at the county (more travel, more hours, more responsibility) but he is super excited and really likes it so far.
Here is a pic of the kids and a random "garage sale" sign we saw when driving around a couple of weekends ago.

Choose the left

Phx has been doing a great job of making good choices lately and "choosing the right". A few nights ago Cory asked the kids to get their Jammies. Phoenix quickly ran into his room saying "I will get my jammies, I will choose the right!". Skylee gave Cory her sassy pants look and said "I choose the left." Classic Skylee.

Mom, take my picture!!

So cute!

As you all know by now Phx loves the hawks! Here he is reading a book with a couple of the players. I adore this picture!

Summer stuff

We had a family reunion in morgan Utah last week. Cory couldn't come b/c he has to go on high adventure next week :-(
We went to the Dino park, played in the hot tub, and played outside a lot! The kids loved it but they were exhausted!
The next pics are from settler's park. It's huge and has a splash park and there are always about a million kids there.
