Big Steps in the Remfrey House

Nora slept from 8:30 pm to 7:00 am for the first time in over a month! It was a challenging listening to her scream for 45 minutes before she put herself to sleep, but it was well worth the wait. Brian tapped me around 7:00 the morning and said, "It's 7:00 and we're still in our bed and Nora's still in her bed!" It was a huge milestone for us!

The second big event of the day was Nora taking her first three steps! I set her down in the standing position at daycare this morning to show the ladies and Nora decided to make her walking debut. She took one step toward Miss Lachelle and then clapped for herself and repeated this performance three times. It was very exciting! We are going to try to replicate the show tonight at home.

I have no doubt that sleeping through the night had something to do with the walking. I haven't been functioning very well lately because of waking up two or three times a night, so I can't imagine how she was handling it!
