This is our endless fight to keep Adara out from behind the TV. She's going to break something one of these days.







Adara is trying to be like Liam. His underwear are over her diaper if you can't tell.






Adara was watching Liam put his underwear on so she decided to try it............on the head.




Kael found his hands a month ago and always chews on it.............then, he found his thumb.





Liam put his shorts on Adara. I finally found out why she has been wanting to wear his clothes all the time.



Adara likes to help Kael drink from his bottle. Usually, that's because, if it seems he doesn't want it, she will take of with that bottle and drink it. Sly little begger. She is also wearing Liam's pajamas. For some reason his clothes are more exciting than hers right now.






"Where is the shark, Nemo jumper!!!" Poor Liam cried for an hour because his favorite jumper didn't fit in this building.
Adara is having a ton of fun with the new jumper set up.


Liam and Adara at the inflatable funland. They closed to move locations and finally reopened. These two were extatic.













This is cute little Kael trying to calm himself down and go to sleep. He found his thumb. I'm not sure that's a good thing. Hopefully, he doesn't make it too much of a habit. Aaahhh!!

I appologize for my inability to create a well thought out blog. I'm an exhausted mom of three little people. That takes about all the energy and brain power I have. The pictures are out of order and probably confusing, but at least they are here. I just wanted my sweetheart to have a quick way of seeing his children every now-and-then while he's bravely serving our country in Iraq. I love you, Ray.



This is cute, little Kael laughing when I change him. I love when babies do that.

Liam's new toy. What little boy doesn't want to be part of the fast and the furious? This is as close as he can get at the age of three.


Uncle Dave and the kids had a lot of fun playing with the shaker cars. He got them all crazy over it. They have really taken to him. Adara can be stand off-ish, but not to uncle Dave.


New Year's day we went outside, made smores and lit fireworks. Liam loved the fire so much it was literally a fight to drag him back in the house. I didn't realize how much bigger and stronger he has gotten. I really did have a hard time carrying him in the house. Check David's blog for the fireworks pictures. He got some really good ones. www.dmjolley.blogspot.com


Look!! Uncle Matt is home. Let's open his presents too. Liam and Adara had to help Matt open his presents when he arrived on the 29th.

This would be Adara and Zoey and thier mischief. When no one is looking they attack whatever is around. Those are all of grandma's disney movies all over. They are so much fun to sit on. You've gotta try it.





What's christmas without gingerbread cookies?





This is the spider frenzy. Dave found a spider and was trying to get a close up picture of it. He did, but all the kids had to come and help. It took a couple of tries after the kids threw sand on the spider multiple times.


Liam was trying to bury himself. How often does he get that chance. Our yard has grass with only rocks under it. Not too much fun once you get past the first 6 inches.


Aren't Uncle's used for work? David, so generously, gave up some time to go outside and dig a trench for the kiddies. Megan and I helped too. The kids loved it and the bath tub was filled with dirt at the end of the day. Sorry, mom. I hope it doesn't clog the pipes. We were just grateful to have a nice warm day where the kids could go outside and play and not get sick.

Isn't this the best site you've ever seen. She loves dirt. Need I say more. And yes, she eats it too.



Christmas was tons of fun at Grandma and Grandpa Jolley's house. On Christmas morning we did a lot of present openeing. Liam and Adara felt it their duty to help everyone else open their presents once theirs were done. It was nice of the others to allow the kids to help.






Adara got the Dora tree house and Diego's rescue center. Her and Zoey had fun with those.




Christmas was a lot of fun for all of the kids. Liam got the shaker car race track and him and the others wore the batteries out in one day.








Adara and Zoey, partners in crime. At grandma Jolley's, these two kept disappearing and finding the most hidden of treasures and bunk beds to jump on. They found everyones christmas candy and ocassionally came out with a toy. If the wrapers in the hall and every bedroom didn't say enough. These two also hate clothes. It's amazing if we can keep, at least, their shirt on for half a day. When Zoey went home Adara still kept it up. Uncle David found snicker wrapers and pieces of snickers candy under his covers. What a sweet surprise he found that night. It came from his stocking too. I hope he didn't want that. We'll send you more if you would like Dave.





This shirt is, simply, to show the world how much she loves her Daddy and the color pink. She is definately a Daddy's girl. Even though he's gone for the time being, she talks about him all the time.










Yippeeee, I found the perfect shirt for little Adara. She is in the terrible two stage and it just steadily gets worse. She is the tantrum queen and emotional, like girls tend to be. I found this shirt and had to get it. Luckily, she loves crabs too. It is now only a month old and looks more ragged than most of her other clothes. Maybe she likes it too much.
