Favorite things...

One of Marley's favorite things to do now is look out the window. So
curious:)

Loving pooh

Having a snack

Having a snack at papaw's... Waiting for gma to get home...

So sleepy

I had to wake Marley this morning.  She was sound asleep.  Look at how she is laying in the crib....the feet especially!

Christmas

We had an excellent Christmas! Marley did so well. After she opened
each present she wanted to play with the toy! So cute! We are very
fortunate to have such a loving and GENEROUS family. Thank you all for
making this holidayso special for us. We love you all!
Oh and in the second picture Marley was so happy she was doing flips!

Forward facing

Marley's car seat is now forward facing. What a big girl!

ride? The vacuum!!!!

Daddy's little girl

Happy Birthday!

2 ft of snow wasn't stopping us from having a party! Lots of family
and friends came out for the party...thank you! It was messy but they
made it.
We are so lucky to have such loving generous people in our lives.

Happy 1st birthday Marley!

One year ago today....

I WAS IN AGONIZING PAIN! (ha! You thought I was gonna be mushy!
Well, I am now). But it was well worth it. I'll never forget the night
Marley was born I twittered that I love being marley's mom. At that
time I had no idea how great it really was going to be. I'm so blessed
to have such a healthy and good baby! This year has blown by. I can
remember being so antsy about her arrival. Well since she has arrived
she has filled my life and a lot of others with so much joy, laughter,
and entertainment! One day hopefully she will get to read this.
Marley, I want you to know how much you have changed our lives. Such a
beautiful little girl. We love you so much!
Now-let's party!

Making cupcakes

Here's some pics of my assistant helping me make cupcakes for her 1st
birthday!

Presents

Marley opened her very first birthday present tonight. Aunt Wanda and
Uncle Max sent Marley the softest and cutest Eoyre!
She kissed it and hugged it! So cute!!

Clogged sink

Anyone know of drano would take care of this?!

Ham bone!

She is really living up to one of her many nicknames!
So silly!

Baby brother

We found out this morning that Marley is getting a baby brother!

Here's Marleys reaction and an ultrasound pic...

Lil rockstar!

Playing with Mommy's sunglasses:)

Ham bone!

Look at what a ham Marley is! Oh and by the way this is her with an
ear infection. Yes, I'm a lucky mother!

First ear infection:(

Poor baby girl has an ear infection. She was getting better over the
weekend but seemed to have gotten worse yesterday and today. So we
went to the dr and she has an ear infection. This child never cried
once about it! No signs of discomfort! She must have a high
tolerance for pain like her Daddy!
Off to the pharmacy to pick up her first antibiotic. The dr said it's
unbelievable that she almost made it a year without one already.
Keep your fingers crosses the meds work and no allergies!!!

Noogie

My silly daughter LOVES when her Daddy gives her noogies!

Have you seen my baby?!

Banana bread

Marley enjoying homemade (by mama) banana bread!

Eva's recital

Marley had a blast at Eva's recital today! She loved all the dancing
and music. Eva did so good! She looked adorable!

Chocolate milk

I put a drop of Hershey's syrup in her milk....she barely took a
breath the whole time!

Out numbered....

I think I was out numbered here! What do you think?!

Dishwasher inspector

She was up there in no time! Man is she fast!

Loving the pups

I think somebody loves their puppy dogs!

Almost 1!

I can't believe that my baby girl is almost a year old! It seems just
like yesterday we couldn't wait for her arrival! I almost cried last
night when I realized today was December 1! It has been a great year
though. Marley has brought so much joy and happiness to our family. We
can't wait for double the joy next year!!!!

Yay!

Whenver Marley hears clapping on TV she joins in. So cute!

Loving the kitty kat!

Eggs

Seems like Marley is ok with eggs. She had scrambled eggs over the
weekend. Today it's hard boiled. She seems to love them!

First Thanksgiving

Marley's first Thanksgiving was great! Although she was sick she was
a trooper and enjoyed the whole day! For some reason we didn't end up
with a single picture:(. Next year!

Helping mommy

Marley likes to help mommy vacuum. She pushes the vacuum for me. Such
a sweet baby girl!

Christmas Winky!

First real experience with a christmas tree!

And she loved it!

Christmas

Someone is going to LOVE Christmas!

Daddy's shoes

Marley was playing with daddy's shoes!

11 months old!

I can't believe that my little girl is already 11 months old! Now I
know what my grandmom meant everytime she saw us she would say "my my
how much you growed!". Marley's first birthday will be here before you
know it. We love you baby girl!

Visit with grandparents

Poppy and Nonna came to visit last night.

Hiding from Mommy!

Sneaky

The locks are supposed to be on the cabinet not in the mouth! Silly
girl!

New discovery

Marley has now discovered the drawers in the kitchen. Time to get more
locks!

Mischievous!

Silly!

Marley climbed through the windshield of the firetruck to get in! I
tried to get the picture while she was half in half out but I wasn't
quick enough.

Cheesy poofs!

Visit with Gabby and Travis

We went to Aunt Debbie's house today. Marley played with Gabby and
Travis. We had a very nice visit. Marley took about 5 steps on her
own...no enticing!

Play date

Marley and Maya went to jelly bean jungle. They had a great time!
They played in the ball pit, went down the slide, watched the fishies,
and played in the "crawler" area. Hope to do it again soon:)

New sneakers

Marley's Papaw and Gma got her some new sneakers....check em out!
They are way cool!

Milk!

Marley had milk (or mugga as her uncle john used to call it!) for the
first time tonight. Looks like she likes it! Hope it goes well:)
