Changing fast

My baby seems to be growing up so quickly these days. She got her second tooth Jan 19th. On Jan 27th, DH heard her crying more than usual when she woke up in the morning, and went into her room to find her standing up in bed in her sleep sac. On Jan 29th, she managed to put a cube into her shape-sorting bus. On Jan 30th, we figured out that not only does she love old cheddar (has had it for a while now), but she loves camembert too. And on Feb 3rd, she learned how to crawl up a flight of stairs. Times are exciting.
Naps aren't going great these days. She doesn't always like to sleep in her crib, and sometimes our nanny has to take her out in the stroller to get her to go to sleep. At least nighttime sleeps are still the wonderful 11-12 hour stretches we all love around here.
We got our furnace replaced last week, so things are much quieter around here. Too bad the new thermostat confirmed why all our parquet floors are cracking - the humidity in the house is only 19% despite a humidifier being in the system. So it appears our humidifier is broken too, and they weren't able to fix it on Friday, so now we'll have to wait till next Thursday.
And the biggest news of the day? For the first time since K was born, I didn't get out of bed from 11pm till 7:15am! No middle-of-the-night pumps for me any more! If I make enough milk for her till Monday, I have enough frozen to get her to a year. No reason to think that won't happen. So as of today, I decided to cut back from 5 pumps a day to 3. I'm going to do bedtime, before work, and after work (but before our nanny goes home). Hopefully this will work well, and still let me keep going a little longer. It would be great to stop by the time we go visit my brother next month. Or to at least be down to twice a day by then, if it's not too much of a pain and something's still coming out.

I stopped by your blog today. My granddaughter is due any day now. Can't wait to have a baby around again.
