10 MONTHS of Remi Rose 🌹 Remi just started crawlin 10 MONTHS of Remi Rose 🌹
Remi just started crawling for real on the eve of 10 months after several weeks of army crawling and leg dragging (like Brooklyn did). She's not pulling up quite yet but has started showing interest in it. Things are about to get interesting 🤪. She's not met a food she doesn't like. Blueberries and watermelon are a favorite, so perfect for summertime. She's such a joy. Never bothered by anything. Her face lights up when you even look her way. She loves being tickled, playing peekaboo, and playing with her sisters. Stacking cups are a favorite toy. Remi weighs 18 lbs 2 oz.

Remi is ready to kick off summer and show off her summer thigh rolls 😍 She got to meet her two newborn cousins this month, and she looks huge compared to them 😂. She loves her food and has been going on a bit of a milk strike in preference for the real stuff 🤪 She's still working on getting her knees under her for crawling, but is a rolling Queen to get wherever she wants to go. Making a lot more purposeful sounds so we're thinking she may be an early talker 🤞🏼 (earlier than all others at least 😜). Looking a bit more like Brooklyn this month. Remi weighs 17 lbs 2 oz. Swipe ▶️ to see what happens when you realize there's a carton of eggs next to you. No eggs were harmed in the making of this post. Hoping to add some of our chicken eggs to the carton this next month.

Facts: 1. I'm posting this because Remi turns nine Facts:
1. I'm posting this because Remi turns nine months tomorrow and I need one more photo before her monthly update photo to keep with the diagonal pattern. 
2. If it weren't for the monthly update photos I would probably never post to my feed anymore 😬🤦🏼‍♀️.
3. Blakely loves her chickens!
4. Life is good!

About Me

Welcome! 

​I’m Samantha from @samantharaisingwildflowers. 

I am blessed to be raising four wildflowers after years of infertility. Our family “The Hicks Six” lives on a small homestead, dubbed Cedar Brook Haven, in the Knoxville,  Tennessee area. We’re diving in headfirst to homesteading, entrepreneurship, homeschooling, and more! We love sharing all of our escapades including our many DIYs, our sprinter van conversions, our crazy adventures, as well as our quiet moments in between chasing chickens, planting seeds, and reading books. We love Jesus, family, nature, travel, books, and laughing. We are not afraid to be stand out and do the unordinary. 

“[A wildflower is] a free spirit. Uncultivated by the mainstream. Independent thinker. Bravely growing wild and free in a world plagued by conformity.”       – Urban Dictionary

​“There are only two lasting bequests we can hope to give our children. One of these is roots, the other wings.” – Author Unknown

We would love to connect with you and have you along for the journey!
