Becoming a toddler?

I can't believe I haven't written anything since September. Bad me, bad. And now I only have five minutes before I have to wake C up from her morning nap to head to my ballet class. So this will be a quick update.
We are all doing very well. I am happy to report that C sleeps much much better. I haven't had to use a "sleep technique" in many weeks. She now cries for anywhere between 30 seconds and 2 minutes when I put her down, then stops, having voiced her disagreement, and either falls asleep or proceeds to play for 30 minutes. If she chooses to play, I get a concert of coos, bah-bah-bahs, ahs and occasional mah-mahs on the baby monitor. Adorable indeed. Nights vary, she sometimes wakes up only once, sometimes twice, but it's not bad, really.
She now has seven teeth that I can see. I just only discovered the seventh on the top left yesterday and it might have a partner on the right that I missed. Teething pains haven't been bothering C much, or she is mighty stoic. In any case, teeth keep coming without drama.
C is all over the place, all the time. She crawls, pulls herself up, climbs and cruises. Her movements remind me more and more of a toddler's not a baby's anymore. She seems to be in control and to know what she wants to do. Yesterday, she would go and pick up a toy, then go and sit on daddy's lap to play with it. Then get bored and find another toy and repeat. Cute! She does not walk yet, but is trying to stand on her own. She lets go from time to time and is able to keep her balance for a couple of seconds.
Ooops, my time is up! I will try to come back and continue my account later!
