2 month appointment

Hailey had her two month doctor's appointment yesterday.  I was very curious to find out how much she weighed and how long she was.   Boy was I surprised to find out she weighed more than I thought.  She is now 12 pounds and 23 1/2 inches long.  The doctor said she is perfect and growing just fine.  Hailey kept smiling and cooing at the doctor while he was explaining the vaccinations she was going to be getting (if she understood what he was saying, I doubt she would have been smiling).  He left and the nurse came in.  Hailey had no idea what was about to happen.  She was first given the oral vaccination and she didn't like that one much but when those BIG needles came, all hell broke loose.  She was screaming.  I picked her up right away and it took a few minutes to calm her down.  As soon as I put her clothes back on and put her in her carrier, she was out.  Thank goodness for my sister in law Kristy and my good friend Erin for letting me in on the secret of Tylenol before the shots.  I truly believed that helped.  Once she woke up, she wasn't fussy and I don't think the shots bothered her much.  I can't believe we have to do this again at 4 months and 6 months.  It just hurts your heart to see your baby in pain.  

Our First Photo Session

On Valentine's Day, we went and took family pictures at JC Penney's.  I was a bit worried because Hailey fell asleep in the car and I knew we would have to wake her up when we got there.  You never know if she will be in a good mood or bad mood.  Luckily for us, she was in a good mood.  We were so happy with the pictures.  We had lots of smiles.  I don't get to pick them up until sometime next week.

It wasn't until after the pictures that we encountered some problems.  Sean and I were looking at the pictures making our selections and Hailey started to get a bit fussy, so I decided to go into the changing room to feed her.  All was well.  We were wrapping up the order and Hailey decided to go to the bathroom.  The lady at JC Penney's said laughing "it is never as bad as it sounds".  Boy was she wrong.  I got Hailey back into the changing room and noticed the poop had gone everywhere.  It was all over her new outfit.  So I sat down nervously trying to get her cleaned up.  Thank goodness I had taken an extra change of clothes.  I got her all cleaned up  and we joined Sean.  Sean looked at my sweater and asked what was on it.  YUCK, Hailey had gotten some poop on my new sweater.  I handed Hailey over to Sean so I could put my coat on and Hailey decided to throw up all over Sean's sweater.  By this point, it became a laughing matter.  Sean handed her back to me so he could put on his coat.  We left in a hurry hoping no one noticed.  We were just happy that all of this happened after the pictures.  This will be a great story to share with Hailey when she gets older.  

SLEEP at 7 weeks

As many of you already know, Hailey has had her days and nights mixed up and well sleep had not been a part of an everyday activity for me.  I could not believe how much she slept last night.  I put her down at 11:30 pm and she did not wake up until 4:30 am.  She got changed and fed and was back to sleep by 6:30 am.  She finally woke up at 10:20 am.  Now you can call me paranoid, but I was worried because she wasn't sleeping long enough through the night and now is she sleeping too much????  Well I am not going to complain about last night.  I just hope she continues with that sleeping pattern.  Keep your fingers crossed!
