3 Months!

Hailey is 3 months old! My how time flies. I cannot believe it. I have no idea how much she weighs. She doesn't have a well check this month. But when she had her ears checked last week she was 13 lbs. Alot has changed since last month. First off, Hailey is drooling like crazy! This has just started the last few days. Cheyenne had her 1st tooth at 4 months so I wonder if Hailey will be the same. She is always in such a good mood. She'll just laugh and smile at you! She has started becoming distracted when nursing. This drove me insane when Cheyenne was nursing. I'm learning to just go with it. She'll eat eventually.

Our routine is beginning to look the same each day. She'll wake between 7 and 7:30 in the morning and we do our 1st feed of the day. After about an hour and a half she's ready for a nap. We're starting to stretch out her feeds from 3 hrs to 3 1/2 so that by 4 months she'll hopefully be going 4 hrs between feeds. This pretty much repeats throughout the day. I try really hard to line up Cheyenne's afternoon nap with Hailey's so I at least have 30 minutes to myself. Some days everything just "clicks." Other days (like today) nothing goes right, but you just gotta go with it until bedtime and just hope the next day goes better. Hailey is usually in bed asleep between 7-7:30 pm and Chey at 8:00. It's so nice! Hailey's longest stretch of sleep so far is 9 1/2 hours! Amazing! She does between 7 1/2- 8 1/2 hrs consistently. She'll eat when she wakes around 4am and then will go back to sleep. I am so thankful that she is a wonderful night sleeper! Of course around 4 months is when things went sour with Cheyenne, so we'll just have to wait and see.

Hailey has rolled over (about 2 weeks ago was the 1st time). When sitting in her bouncy seat she raises her head and tries to sit up! She wants to see the world!

She has had 4 ear infections in her 3 months and pretty m uch an ongoing cold. She's been somewhat congested since about 3 weeks old. This last ear infection was pretty rough but has been clear since! She is a pretty good baby thus far!
