Lower the crib mattress!

We woke up this morning with a beautiful white yard! I love waking up to this on my day off:
The snow is melting pretty quickly, now that the sun has come out, but it is always pretty while it lasts!

Adelyn and I have just been hanging out today. She is so much fun to spend my days off with! Today has been the perfect weather day that gives you an excuse to just stay in your pj's and relax a little bit. Adelyn played hard this morning, so she was ready when nap-time came around! Is this not the sweetest thing you have ever seen in your entire life?!

But after she woke up, she was full of energy again, and she has officially started pulling up on her own! I didn't get a picture, because I was too busy rushing over to her to make sure she didn't fall... But she did pull up on the edge of her Moses basket, pictured here:


The sides of the basket aren't all that sturdy (just heavy canvas), so she couldn't quite get her balance very well after pulling up... Hence the need for Mommy to rush over and prevent a face-first dive onto the hardwood floor. But she has figured out how to pull herself up on inanimate objects, so Tyler and I are going to have to be on our toes and always watching her while she plays. Or better yet, maybe it's time to get the Pack-n-Play back out! We used it a lot when she was first born, kind of as a bassinet out in the living room during the day (because she always slept in her crib at night). So I guess it's time to take the top part out of the Pack-n-Play and turn it into a play-pen... At least when I can't be right there hovering over her constantly. Lowering the mattress in her crib is probably in the near future, too. Right now, she's still short enough that she wouldn't be able to get over the rails, but at this age, they grow so fast; it could be any day now! Yikes!
