8 Teeth and Climbing!

Ally has 8 teeth through the gums now (which I believe is a lot for her age).

And...

She's climbing! I had her playing with toys down on the floor this afternoon, and was trying to catch a little nap, only to be woken by her standing at the couch patting at my face. She also climbed to a stand on the bottom of the stairs a few days ago when Aaron & I were decorating our house for Christmas. And she climbed to a stand on Kyrie's potty, and she climbed to a stand on one of Kyrie's chairs....the list goes on. I'm debating purchasing a fly swatter to discourage her thoughts of standing and/or climbing ... ha ha just kidding, but I do worry about her walking at this age. She doesn't know what to do once she gets to a stand... she tends to fall backwards (I can see that becoming a painful habit). I'm trying to teach her to bend her legs if she feels herself losing her balance, so that way she won't hurt so bad when she falls.
