Will has always been the lovey-huggy-touchy kid. From day one (he is actually about a year old here), he would much rather nap ON you, rather than in his crib.
There is lots of sleeping going on around here. I knew to expect this. When he come home on R&R, it took almost three days to get back on Texas time. He was nine hours ahead when he was in Baghdad. Since he left on Sunday, until we picked him up on Wednesday, he had only slept a handful of hours here and there.
Yesterday the kids had Caroling in the Courtyard at their preschool. They sang songs in both English and German. Then we got to have lunch with the kids. We made the faux-turtles. They were a huge hit! "Hey, what you lookin' at?" ........Will thinks if his jacket has a hood on it, you should be wearing it. Even if it is over 70 degrees and sunny.....silly boy!
Best wishes to all traveling this weekend.....Merry Christmas!

Maybe Will just hasn't had the right pillow to take a nap with until now.
Looks like everyone is settled in and very happy to be together again. Merry Christmas to all of you!
I still love it. That nap story is just all sorts of cute.
Livi never napped? Really?
Still happy for you!
Such sweet photos.
SB always preferred sleeping on us too. And having been up with him for the better part of 4 nights in a row now (!!) he still doesn't sleep too well alone.
Did you wake them when you took that photo?
tulipmom- Not this one, but the second one I did. It was 3:00, and they needed to get up or NEITHER would have gone to bed before 9PM!
I love the way Will picked right up where he had left off.
Merry, merry, merry Christmas to you, Tommie!
Those are such sweet pictures :-)
Sounds like y'all are settling in just fine. Merry Christmas to the Adams family!
For some reason I havent been by in a while...sorry! But it brough tears to my eyes to see that your husband is home safe and sound AND in time for christmas! I am thrilled for you and your family!!!!
I hope you have a wonderfu time!!
I am enjoying your homecoming so much - I think about how wonderful it must be for you all right now!
I love those pictures of your son sleeping with your husband - so sweet and aren't they happy to have him home!? Have a wonderful weekend. Kellan
so adorable!!! my son, who will be 4 on sunday, when he naps, it's directly on my stomach or arm!
have a wonderful holiday season!
Wow- we just loved the homecoming below. Kari's husband had two 9+ month deployments to the middle east in the 1990s, but they did not have children at the time. Thank you so much for you and your husband's sacrifices for our country-it really hits home when we read posts like this! Enjoy a most blessed Christmas together!
Have a very Merry Christmas!
blessings,
kari & kijsa
Those napping pictures are priceless.
Your Christmas will be great with dad home!
Love!
May your hearts, bodies and minds have hours unending to lean and fill up with one another.
What love! what joy! what happiness!
What healing!
Absorb it all.
Blessings to you and your family!
I am so happy for you!
I love the "then and now" photos of Will and your hubby napping together - that is just too precious!
Happy Holidays!
It's so cute-- the two of them napping together.

Have a great one!
