Family Update!

Greetings from SUNNY Tucson!

I can't believe its been a almost a month since I've had a second to upload some photos. We are all doing really real. Karl is working hard at Raytheon, in addition to taking summer school classes. Summer school is hard enough...4 months of material in 6 weeks, not to mention working full time, and then taking not 1 but 2 classes! Last night the poor guy was working on homework until 2, came to bed, said "I give up", laid there for 5 minutes, got back up and said "I'm going to go work on it some more". I'm really proud of him for sticking with it, trying to do so much to make mine and the kids life better.

Kyra is such a good kid. She is SO full of energy. She loves to read, and knows so many words now. She is consitently saying 3 or 4 word sentences. She unfortunately learned the word "Booby", and the phrase "Show my the money". And she frequently says them in the same breath. I'm sure people are wondering what I do all day. She knows her colors, some of her shapes, she can count to 10. She knows the abc song, but mostly it comes out A, B, C, L, M, N, O, P, W, X, Y, Z. She is so funny, and knows how to get attention. She has a tendency to drag people into her room to play, and then close the door and sit in front of it so you can't leave. When grandma and grandpa Adams came to visit, grandpa was still needing a cane to walk anywhere. So Kyra devised a plan. She lured grandpa into her room, and as soon as he sat down she grabbed his cane, and ran to put it in the living room, thus trapping grandpa. She was very proud of herself. She loved to imitate grandpa as well. She used a pencil and would lean on it and hobble around the house trying to be like grandpa.

Kyle is such a happy little boy now that we have resolved his tummy issues. We think he was having problems with the formula that we would have to periodically give him. But now he is so quick to smile. He is about 14 lbs already! Sadly, I call him meatball, and Karl calls him Buddha. He is thinking really really hard about rolling over...Kyra gets frustrated waiting for him to roll over. She usually walks over, pushs him over and says "There".

I'm keeping busy with RS. Starting to get into the swing of things. Other than that we are keeping busy with playgroups and our little outings.

We are having a good summer. Karl's sister is coming in a week to visit, then my sister is coming in early August. Then there is a family reunion in early September. Then we have decided to try Disneyland this year, instead of SeaWorld. We think Kyra will love it. She loves every Disney movie, and walks around saying "To infinity and beyond". We are really excited.

We hope all of you are doing wonderfully. Hopfully will see you all soon!

Isn't he so cute....

I love his belly rolls!

Do you see Kyra's hair? I know I'm grasping at straws...but I think its really cute!

Having fun in the bathtub.
