Hiley is now 2 months old
We had her 2 month check up today.
Weight: A very healthy 12.7 pounds which puts her in the 75 percentile
Height: 22inches which puts her below average
Eating Habbits: She eats 8 ounces every 4 hours
Sleeping: Sleeps 10 to 12 hours every single night. We haven’t woken up in the middle of the night since before we left for the lake. She will take small naps during the day here and there.
Diapers: She is in #1′s and I love the Pamper’s swaddlers the best. We were worried she would have rashes all the time, the opposite, havn’t had any problems thus far.
Clothing: Almost completely outgrown newborn clothes, but believe it or not can still ware some. We are going to have to get some winter clothes so we can bundle her up for cabin trips.
Likes: Mornings are her favorite time of day she is all smiles, baths, she has always just loved her baths, her play mat, her new bouncer that Aunt Debbie found, tranquil turtle, music, car rides, the pink blanket Gamma gave her, a new like is her swing. She loves it!
Dislikes: When we take her bottle away to burp her
Mamma: Feeling great! I was able to water ski at the lake. It took me 3 times to get up and it was a little bit painful, but it felt so good to do it and to say I was able to do it. I’m slowly working back into the gym. When I can’t go to the gym I take Hiley for a walk and sometimes I just prefer to walk because it is so beautiful outside right now. Last weekend I went to work with Jay at a wedding. It felt good to be back, but I sure did miss my baby.
Daddy: Watching him with Hiley never gets old. Daddy looks very good on Jay. Watching him talk to Hiley or come up with silly songs to make her smile simply melts my heart. He is still working really hard, I know some people assume because we work from home we do not do anything, but it is quite the opposite. We have a fairly good routine right now.
Random: Our dogs are great with Hiley, even Bella, I was concerned before she was born. Bella will come up and lick her hands, feet and sometimes her face. We don’t push it though Noah simply pretends she doesn’t exist and Carly has been very good with her as well! Our cats ignore her to for the most part. Hiley went on her first lake trip at almost 6 weeks old. It was better than I could have even imagined. She was so good and it was nice to have family there to help and just be a part of her daily fun from sun up to sun down. While we were at the lake Hiley started sleeping all night. By the end of our lake trip she had pulled a few 12 hour nights. I know, we are lucky
When we came home we started putting Hiley in her own room in her own bed and she loves it. The twins and I have always had the tradition of carving pumpkins together, it is a tradition that started at our parents house. We were excited to have Hiley with us this year. My parents were able to come down this year and be a part of it with us and it was a lot of fun carving pumpkins, having pizza and watching scary movies. The newest thing with Hiley is she has started talking, and by that I mean sqeeling and cooing. It is the BEST sound in the entire world. We have fun conversations first thing in the morning. She had to get shots at her appointment today
Never fun for any parent, but she did amazing!
Here’s just a handful of pictures from our month . . .
