everything's great.

it's hard to write a post when everything's just puttering along and there are no real milestones to report.  we're pretty sure penny's off bottles (knock wood), and we'll be tackling the pacifier next; though we're pretty sure that will be much harder.  sleeping in her own bed has been going incredibly well (knock wood again).  she wakes up at around 6am, pads over to our room, cuddles for a little bit, then i send her back to her own bed and she sleeps until 7:30.  i bought her one of these, and hopefully she'll stay in her own bed once it arrives and we explain it to her.  brilliant!
other than that, not much to report.  she's talking incredibly well, climbing up every piece of playground equipment like a champ, and being all around wonderful most of the time.  i'm not going to lie, she has her moments, but the good times far outweigh the bad right now.
