Isn't he a handsome little devil?

Tavis is now 2 1/2 years old. He is our little charmer! He is a layed back little guy and loves to sit and figure things out. He loves anything electronic or mechanical. The whole cause and effect thing I think really intrigues him. He loves watching out for his little Sister Jade and is a great older brother. He also absolutely adores his cousin Haley (Janessa's daughter). He loves hanging out with all his little buddies and even though he is pretty quiet, they all always seem to love being with him. He has a little magnetic personality and is very likable. Lately because of some of his buddies, he is really starting to become fascinated with trains. He loves to line them up and just push them around watching the patterns the train makes as the movements make their way to the last train car. It is fun to watch him! At this point I am betting that he will become a engineer.

Jady the Lady

It is hard to believe that our little lady is almost 7 months old now! She has been the most precious little addition we could have ever hoped and prayed for. She is a little ball of smiles and energy. Her favorite thing to do is be with her big brother Tavis. They are best friends. She will do anything to get her hands on his sippy cup or scoot and roll over to where he is playing to join in with the fun. It is so fun to watch them. We have a feeling that she will be a very quick walker. She is so determined to always be moving and go to where SHE wants to be! We love Jady the Lady!

Morning after Thanksgiving

Have any of you gotten in over your heads? If you were a fly on the Adamson's wall the day after Thanksgiving, this is what you would have seen. We had a wonderful Thanksgiving with 23 guests. And that just wasn't enough for Danielle after rumaging through newspaper ads, she decided to go shopping that night at 11:30 pm with her friend until 8:30 am. When she got home, I left to do a little shopping, and this is what I found when I got back. Danielle snuggled in Jade's boppy in the middle of a room that Tavis obviously had a "hay day" in. Sleep tight sweetie! Maybe next year you'll know your limits!!!!

Tavis taking a break

Tavis loves jumpimg on Mommy and Daddy's backs and riding the buckin bronco. You know when he is done playing when he all the sudden hugs you and pretends like he's asleep (as you can see in this picture). He is our little actor!

Jade is teething

Jade is starting to get some teeth trying to pop out of her gums. She constantly needs to have a little toy to chew on or she finds something laying around to chew up!

JADE LOVES BOOKS

Both Jade and Tavis love books being read to them. As you can see Jade is trying to get you to read this one to her right now!
