A few things to say...

1. Last night we let Ada "cry-it-out" at 2 am. IT WAS AWFUL. I hated it so much. But I did it. I didn't go in there, and she actually didn't cry for all that long. 30 minutes maybe. And then she slept until 7:30 am. I am hoping tonight will be easier since we did it successfully last night.

2. I found the perfect paint color for my foyer/family room/kitchen (they all have connecting walls). I am so excited!! I have tried so many different paint colors. I am starting to have quite the collection of audition size paint cans from Lowe's, but I have finally found the right one, and I cannot wait to get the walls painted. Right now I have portions of all of the walls painted. Pictures to come as soon as we get the computer fixed.

3. Ada is not wanting to take naps this week. Other moms out there, when did your children stop taking two naps a day? I am wondering if she is ready to go to one nap a day. Today, I put her in her bed at 3 pm, and at 5 pm, I finally got her back up. During those two hours I tried rocking her, leaving her alone, getting her back up for a few minutes at a time--she never seemed tired. She just sat in her bed and played.

And that's all for tonight.

What color is your paint???

pale smoke. It was on the paint swatch next to the one with arctic gray. When I first put it on the walls, it looked identical to arctic gray, but once it dried, it had just a hint more blue than arctic gray.

I am so glad you found your blue! I do think it has so much to do with the lighting in the room.
