Orange: an interestingly fun wall color

I have wanted to paint since we were given permission, and I suppose I was overzealous, but our wall is now orange.  It's brighter than we expected, but it's fun and different!

Wisdom Teeth: No one really knows why they're there

Having my wisdom teeth removed was a necessity, and there is only one thing about the whole event that made me sad - I didn't get to have my little one cheering me up!

Climbing: A treacherous pastime

Adella is getting to be quite a character.  I've watched her grab hold of and shake our end table, her crib, and pretty much anything she can stand next to. But lately, Adella has become quite the climber.  Unfortunately she climbs on quite odd things or into something (nothing frightening yet, thankfully).  Just today, I had to install her newest car seat into my mom's car and had it sitting in the living room until she arrived.  I had to keep my eyes on her as she inspected and climbed on it.   We have caught her in the act many times and love the way she smiles, pleased with herself.
