Remi & We

Finally, some new pics!

These are all between month 3-4.  Just random pictures including Anna’s “The Many Hats of Remi” sequence.

Couch potato Remi

Remi is hooked on her first TV show: HBO’s Classical Baby series.

She has noticed TV for brief moments but nothing has quite captivated her like this.  She will sit in her Boppy and watch Classical Baby for a full 30 minutes.  I’m not quite sure what she sees but she cannot tear her eyes away from the show.

It’s all short vignettes (2-5 minutes each) of classical music playing to animated versions of famous works of art. Full credit is given to the composer and artist (for mommy & daddy, presumably).  I can’t wait for the next episode to find out if that two-timing Kandinsky is finally going to fall for Tchaikovsky or that egotistical hussy Wagner.

Sleeping through the night?

It appears Remi is about to take another big developmental step.  She has flirted with sleeping through the night for each of the last 4 nights.  We don’t quite count any of these recent sleeping performances as “full night” because she either went to bed at 1:AM or she had to wake up once during the night.  Still, the times she has woken up hungry have been much shorter and only waking once instead of 3 times is a major improvement.

Lashes

Mom requested pics of Remi’s eye lashes.  They are long.  These pics were taken on July 4th…Remi’s 3 month birthday!!

Manual focusing in a low light situation with no flash = less than crisp photos.  Love the bokeh though.

Remi's favorite toy

I realize this video may not be the most exciting watching in the world to anyone other than us.  I decided to post it because it’s a developmental milestone.  In the video Remi is interacting with an electronic plastic bear.  The white bear is attached to the green support column at the right of the screen.

This is the first time she is smiling and laughing without gas being directly involved.  She is also very aware of her surroundings and able to track movement and, in this video, all the toys hanging from her playmat.  She is specifically laughing and interacting with the bear.  He doesn’t have a name yet but he is far and away Remi’s favorite toy.

Memorial Day Pics

A few shots of Remi’s first Memorial Day.  We waited until the sun was less intense and went to play in the back yard.

Remi Swings!

Remi really likes the swing her aunt Abbie gave her!

Separated at birth? (no…)

Click the picture above for a comparison between Remi (at 2 weeks) and Camp (at birth).  The angles aren’t 100% right but we think there may be some relation.

thumbsucker

Anna noticed it a couple days ago but now we have photographic proof: Remi is a thumbsucker!

Just like her daddy used to be.  Ahh…I’m so proud.
