Greeetings From Williamsburg


(Sorry about the text)

Marley and I have been in Williamsburg since Saturday evening, spending time with Fancy, Granddad and Aunt Sarah and getting ready for the big Christmas holiday! We are having a great time but Marley is missing her daddy so we thought we'd send a shout out and let him (and everyone else) know what we've been up to!

Marley and Mommy right before bed saying "hi" to daddy.
Marley riding in the car today...she figured out that she could put her fist in her mouth. She was being quite the silly girl.
After we went to visit Santa (the sub Santa) yesterday we had Five Guys for lunch because there isn't one readily available in Roanoke. Marley munched away on her hot dog and french fries, mainly because she got to "dip" in the ketchup (much to mommy's dismay). When daddy gets here on Friday we're going to go back to see the "real" Santa. We waited to go see Santa once we got here because Helen from Helen's Place, our wedding photographer, is the one taking the pictures. The ones we got yesterday were great...even if the Santa wasn't.
We also don't have a Manhattan Bagel in Roanoke, or anywhere even near by, so we've been there too. When we were there Marley picked up her bagel, peaked through the hole and said, quite clearly, "I see you!" Her language is really coming along, she's now stringing together 2 and 3 word sentences!
This was the darling diva this morning before we went out for lunch with Jessica and Reed. Marley loves her friend Reed and they play really, really well together. Reed is the same age as cousin Kaley so I can't wait till the cousins can get back together again.
And since we've been here there hasn't been a whole lot of time that the girl has been without marshmellows. In this picture she had snagged the WHOLE bag from the pantry closet. Don't worry daddy, we've since rationed the marshmellows.

Marley can now climb out of the crib that's at Fancy's, or at least made a very good attempt the first time I put her in the other day, so the lucky girl got to open one of her Christmas presents early. She got a Princess blow up bed that is on the floor in Mommy's room. It's been a bit hit or miss since she is sick right now with, yep, you guessed it, an ear infection, but there have been quite a few times she's slept in it. She also really likes to play in it, hiding and jumping like a monkey. *I say jumping like a monkey because while she's jumping she says "No, No monkeys."
And here she is tonight while we were at the nail salon, sitting next to Fancy while her nails dried. She really liked pushing all of the buttons on the front of the dryer.
I have plenty of other pictures on my camera...these were all taken with cell phones (pretty good quality huh?!)...I just need to get my scan disk jump drive so that I can post those. More to come!
