4 Months

Hailey turned 4 months old on Saturday. We went to the doctor yesterday. Hailey weighs 14 lbs and 1 oz. - 65%, she is 26 inches long - 95+%, and he head is 16.5 in around - 75%. No wonder her jammies are fitting so snugly. She's super tall, and chunky, and absolutely wonderful! She giggles when I kiss and tickle under her chin, on her chubby neck folds, and it's one of my most favorite things ever!

Hailey goes to bed around 7:30 PM and is up around 3:30 AM to eat, and then again around 7 AM. She is getting better at naps too. She takes a cat nap around 8:30 AM for about an hour. Then she sleeps at about 10:30 AM until about 1:30 PM, and again around 4:00 PM for an hour or so.


Hailey loves her binkie, but lately she likes her two fingers or thumb more! Hailey is a wiggle worm, and is always moving. She is very strong, and wants to be sitting. She'll be doing it soon, I'm sure! Hailey loves her jumper, and bouncy seat, even her Dad's wiggly leg..anything that's moving! Most often she falls asleep to a bouncing rock-a-bye rhythm that I have had to learn to perfect.

She is a silly little babe with weird things that have taken me until now to understand - like that she will only nurse in the middle of the night, and has a certain way to be wrapped up that will make her sleep longer, and that she likes to face out and see everything while she's eating - but mostly she's just happy, and patient with me and her big sister who still seems to require more attention! We love her, and are lucky to have her!!!
