2 Months

Haylee went in yesterday for her 2 month appointment at the doctor. It was good because she is a growing girl, but bad because she had to get lots of shots:( She did well, though. She cried hysterically, of course, who wouldn't, but calmed down quickly with a bottle:)

Haylee now weighs 10 lbs 11 oz (55th%), is 22 1/8 in. long (50th %), and has a head circumference of 15 1/2 (75th%). We are happy she is right on track! Dr. Jackson said to keep doing what we are doing since she is a happy little baby and is a growing girl!

We also got her to giggle for the first time last weekend, on the 11th! It was the cutest thing we've ever heard, but she hasn't done it since! She is so smiley now and is a super happy baby, unless she wants her bottle, then she really knows how to tell us! She loves playing on her activity gym mat. The monkey on there seems to be her best friend:) She likes to coo at him:) We're so happy Haylee is doing well and can't wait to update with all of the new things she should start doing!!

Finally an update!!

So we have obviously been terrible at updating this blog, but we do have some things to report. Haylee has been changing so much the past few weeks. She is so much more alert now and has definitely found her voice! She looks around all of the time and seems to be trying to figure out this world she is in. We have started taking her out and she just looks around with her big blue eyes! She is such a good baby. She now is sleeping 5-7 hours a night, only waking up once to eat. We are hoping this continues!! She really seems to be a happy baby until she is hungry or tired, in which case she has learned to scream (not necessarily cry, but truly scream):)

One really exciting thing she did last week was roll over! She rolled from her belly to her back, but hasn't done it since. She has been close a few times, but without success again yet.

Haylee goes back to the dr. next week for her 2 month appointment. That's one I'm really not looking forward to since she has to get shots. Hopefully she will do better than I will:)

I have now gone back to work this past week. It was super hard to leave Haylee every day, but thank God for my mom who is watching her so I at least know she is getting the best possible care. It's also great that I can work part time so I was home early most days this week, worked a half day Thursday, and was off on Friday.

Here are some pictures...
