Hailey is four months old today, she is nursing perfectly and seems to be working on her first tooth. She really is the perfect baby, she only fusses when she is tired or hungry. She smiles a lot and is very alert, sometimes it seems like you can see the wheels turning in her little mind. She is such a joy! If all babies were like her Id have a dozen. She is about 13 pounds and 25 inches long. She does not like tummy time, she tolerates it for a few minutes and then starts to squeel and let me know she is mad. She has been rolling for a few weeks which has made for the demise of tummy time. When she is done she just rolls over onto her back where she finds her toes. Her toes are her best friends- she loves to hold them and suck on them. She has brought so much joy into our home, I had no idea babies could be so pleasant and sweet. My boys both screamed basically non-stop from the time they were born until they were 6 months old. Hailey wakes once during the night, around 3am and then again at 6am and then gets up for the day around 7 with a few naps here and there. I had no idea babies could sleep so well!
