Overnight it happened. She turned into a big girl. With chucky thighs and little rolls. Two bottom teeth pooped up. She started sitting up. She has even pushed up on her hands and knees a few times (mostly when mad). And she started eating solid food. Yep, all overnight....or that's how it felt to this mommy.
Remi has been so much fun lately. My favorite thing she is doing is just laughing absolutely hysterically for no apparent reason. It's like she sees humor in the mundane tasks of life and then it's contagious and everyone around her starts cracking up. She can go to pissed off just as fast she can go to happy. Her daddy and I often joke about those being Rem's only two moods: happy and pissed. And she can change on a dime.
We let big sister pick out Remi's first food. Initially, Adara wanted her first food to be chocolate. We explained chocolate is not really a food....more like a treat. Adara then settled on peaches. And lucky us that peaches are in season. So we went and bought beautiful, prefectly ripe, organic peaches and made our favorite babygirl some food. AND she loved it!!! When Adara was little it took her a little bit to get the hang of eating. But Remi has already figured it out after like the first 5 bites. She snaps the spoon in her mouth, slurps/sucks up the contents of the spoon loudly like a vacumm cleaner, and pulls away like a turtle. The whole process is hilarious. But I think Remi's favorite part is sitting up in her highchair at the table like a big girl. She beams and looks beyond proud to sit next to her sister who she still madly adores.
With the whole hitting four month thing we have had some sleep regression. Blah. My perfect sleeper now wakes up a couple times throughout the night. We are hoping to nip this in the butt soon but that cry is just so loud. And sleeping has been a challenge all around because the other thing Remi is doing is sleeping on her tummy, head burried into the mattress. This just freaks me out because SIDS is no joke. I try and roll her over or turn her head the side and five seconds later she is back in the same position. This has resulted in us moving Remi back out of the crib (yeah, I know) and into our room so I can have a peace of mind hearing her breath. It's amazing. We thought we had this sleep thing so figured out and then we get the curveball. Remi hasn't started phsycial therapy yet for her torticollis but I'm wondering if that will help. While Remi can roll from back to stomach easily, I have not seen her roll from stomach to back. And when she is sleeping on her stomach I worry that she might get stuck there. So yes, we made forward progress and now we are regressing. But that's okay with me because I would rather miss some sleep and have a peace of mind about the situation than miss sleep and be up worrying with bad thoughts all night.
Remi has grown out of most of her 3-6 month clothes and fits best in her 6-9 month of even 12 month clothes. She loves making farting sounds (or rasberries as they are more kindly called) and this is frequently the sound I wake up to in the morning. She takes long naps at home and does not sleep at school at all. She still loves toys and finds music to be calming. Her latest interest is in Rio puppy. She frequently is tracking him around the house. She went camping for her third time. She goes with the flow. And she had her first fever. We love our RemGem (Adara calls her this) and can't wait to see what next month will bring!
