Two big steps to note!! Gretta is pulling to full-on standing, no longer bending over but completely standing upright! She is really getting around and is into EVERYTHING as usual, but now we have to make sure everything is high enough to be out of reach when she stands up! Crazy, she has only been crawling for a month, and now at 7 1/2 months she is up on her feet! Also noteworthy- we started potty training Emma Kate 2 days ago, and I think we have lift off! She is doing incredibly well, with a couple of successful peepees and poopoos today I think she realizes how proud we are of her when she does it right! We really needed to have a couple good ones so she knew exactly what she was aiming for, and it has made a big difference in her attitude! Surely there is a long way to go still, but pretty exciting progress in a very short time!!! We are all slowly recovering from our yucks- all of us girls are hopefully in the final stages of the cold we have been fighting... and we will be so glad to say goodbye to it!!!
