Greta 8 months

8 months and counting, she's growing quickly! The day she turned 8 moths she decided to start crawling. Not full on crawling, but she's got an efficient army crawl. It's a little more sophisticated than Graham's side stroke crawl. 
She really wants to be big, she watches her siblings and just wants to do what they do. When they run by her, she starts rocking and almost trying to crawl faster to keep up. 
She is so patient with her siblings, she is constantly smothered with hugs, kisses, and hair playing. Having ponytails stick out of her helmet makes it irresistible. But it's a wonder she hasn't eroded into thin air from all the love. 
She can feed herself puffs and Cheerios, and is so far pretty ok with all babyfood purée flavors (knock on wood). She gets the high chair now like a big girl, and loves it! Good for mr G too, as he has graduated to sitting at te table. Good of him, bad for mom, as now I can't contain him or his mess at meal times. 
She's weighing 18 lbs, and far too quirky to get an accurate height reading. But she is filling out 12 month clothes in length.
