Time flies when you're changing diapers!

Okay, so it has been MONTHS and MONTHS since I updated this. It is just impossibly hard to sit down for more than a few minutes.

I'm prompted to finally do this by something Ray did recently. He asked me if he could do something. I said no. He disappeared for a few minutes and came back to me, and said, "I'm asking you again." I said, "I'm still saying no." He said, "Look at this." I looked at him and he was pointing at his shirt. He had changed into a shirt that says "I'm probably not listening to you." HA!

All in all, life is lovely adventure. Raymond is learning a lot in school, primarily about "how" to go to school. School assigns him books from 3rd-4th grade - yes that's right! In kindergarten. What I get for him from the library is even more challenging!

Thomas loves preschool and is adept at all things physical, although he knows his letters and is working on sounds. 

Evelyn is a dear, pensive, busy little baby. She had RSV recently, and has had an array of other mild illnesses that have made sleeping even more of an impossibility. She loves barley, spelt and oat baby cereal, and sits like a pro. No crawling yet, which I really haven't been push.

That's a quick update. Scott got me a DSLR camera for Christmas, and I've been trying to take "better" pictures of the monkeys, so here's a slide show.

Love, Lys

Quick Catch Up

Nothing major has happened since the last time I posted.

Only....

We bought a(nother) house, and moved out of Candace's the day before Easter.

Raymond turned 5.

5 Awesome friends surprised me with a baby shower.

I took the boys to Santa Rosa around Mother's Day and sang for a benefit for the 6th Street Playhouse. I returned a week later to sing for Ern's funeral. It was sad, but beautiful.

We went to Bear Lake for a weekend of bike racing. Scott has been racing quite a bit the last few months.

We had a nice visit with Grandma & Grandpa Kuhni, and Claudia.

Raymond graduated from preschool, and he reads at approximately the 2nd grade level. Oh, and had 8 cavities filled. And....
Sydney and Landon got married (my parents came out, and my mom and I did the flowers.) It was a gorgeous wedding!

Thomas continues to be a character, and I am gearing up for new baby (Amanda took some amazing maternity pictures - thank you!!!)

That's all for now. Stayed tuned for news on Evelyn!

MUSE

Extreme exhaustion from moving over the weekend didn't stop Scott and I from the amazing experience that is a MUSE concert. I thought I couldn't bring a camera (yes, I'm a dummy). So, I didn't take this picture.
