So now I am a few months in and the momentum slowed, for one reason or another I have not been able or inclined to practice (I will so not make perfect like this). I am still not at the give up stage yet, I think that targets would help maybe. I picked my flute up again a couple of nights ago and was still able to make, what I loosely call notes, some sound out of it (so that's a plus). I have a few tunes that I can almost follow the music and almost make the notes, the lower ones at the moment being more difficult. I would say I can play the lower part of F major (not sure if I have this right but from the lowest F on the treble clef staff to the one on the top line) with it not sounding too awful, my daughter may disagree with this I will ask her when she comes back from camp. Hopefully the next update will be a little sooner.
