Raemi seems to be weaning herself, or at least wanting to nurse a lot less than she used to. She generally still gets a pretty good breastmilk breakfast lunch and dinner as she nurses when she gets up, before her nap and before bed. She'll sometimes also nurse 1 time mid-evening and once or twice in...
My precious baby girl was born! I've never actually written out her birth story, which is sad because there are details I don't remember. But I'll do my best to write it out now! On June 18th 2007 I went in for a checkup because I was scheduled to be induced the next morning (reason being that I had...
So this morning I had gotten up with Raemi (after her best night's sleep ever, I think...she only got up once in 11 hours, praise God!!!) and fed her and got her dressed while Mike was still asleep. Once I heard him get up I went to go get dressed while he said good morning to Raemi, but a few moments...
Raemi took her first step today!!! She's been balancing while standing without holding on to anything for some time now, and often starts to pick up her foot to take a step but either loses her balance or changes her mind and decides to crawl. But today she lifted up her foot and took her first tiny...
Sorry I end up writing about Raemi most of the time. My intent was to do more than just blog about stuff she does, but as she is pretty much my life right now and occupies 99.9% of my time and energy, I often lack anything else of interest to say. Today is no different, but I'm really excited to be able...
So, after my last post we determined that actually the extreme amount of fussiness Raemi was having while home with me was more than just wanting her daddy. She was beginning to suffer from reflux again. For the 1st few days of it starting to get bad again, her excitement over getting to see her daddy...
My lil baby girl is 8 months old today!!! And she seems sooo much more grown up then just 1 month ago when she was just barely starting to crawl. She's SOO active now! And, great news, she's finally starting to sleep better!!! The past 3 nights I've only had to get up with her about 3 times a night,...
Yikes, it feels like Raemi is growing by leaps and bounds! Not so much physically, but in all the new things she is learning to do! Her vocabulary is expanding, her newest word is "Dath" (Dash) our kitty. She thinks he is the BEST!!! She calls him whenever she sees him, and a lot of times crawls...
I was bored today, so I decided to take pictures of Raemi! She didn't mind, she thinks trying to get the camera while mommy desperately tried to get in a decent shot or 2 is great fun! I ended up with a few pictures that I liked....
We've been struggling with Raemi not sleeping well and screaming after she eats, but we'd been under the belief that it was just normal infant behavior and there was nothing we could do. It had become worse and worse, though. Last Thursday night I was up so much trying to soothe Raemi that I only got...
