Greta is 9 months! The most exciting thing is that she took her first crawl-step last night and today, she took a couple wobbly crawl-steps! We're very excited to have a soon-to-be crawling baby in our home. Greta has continued to pull herself around via her arms a toes (she's going to be great at the butterfly when she learns to swim) and figured out that she can follow me around our apartment and get to places, not just to things. She gets very sad when Holly and I are in the kitchen and she works so hard to join us. Greta does not like to feel left out. I think that she's grown a lot in the last month. She's longer and bigger. Her hair is getting really thick and it's starting to get longer. Sometimes, after a sweaty nap, Greta's hair has a little bit of wave to it which deepens my hope that she'll have curly hair one day. Right now, poor Greta has croup. She cried all night last night and while I wish I could say we enjoyed some cuddles, she was inconsolable and did not cuddle up to me. She's very sad and there wasn't much I could do for her. Greta is a sensitive little baby. She has a tender heart just like her Dad. Greta has 4 teeth. Her two bottom middle ones, and two on the top, but they aren't the middle ones. They're the two to the right of the middle of her mouth. Does that make sense? She has another one, the middle left tooth, working it's way out. Greta is a very good eater. She loves cheerios and this past month, she learned to feed herself her bottle. She's pretty pleased about that little accomplishment. We love our Greta so much!
Greta at 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, and 1 months. Can I just say that I'm so glad I've stuck with this monthly photo? It's been really fun.
