4 Months

4 Months

The rumor is true.  This parenting gig just gets better and better by the day.  Hayley is growing so rapidly; both physically and emotionally. 

Month three felt like a big turning point.  We found that she became overall happier, more content, and cried less.  

This was a big month for her!  She learned how to roll over from her tummy to back, starting playing with toys, and giggles often.  

Sleep has been VERY difficult during this past month.  Her daytime sleep became a little more consistent, but in turn, her night time sleep went downhill.  Let's just say that this Momma is tired!  

We sure do adore this little "Joy" of ours.  



15 pounds
Grayish blue eyes
5-6 diaper changes a day
Holds and chews on toys
Hands are constantly in her mouth
Loves splashing in the bath
Doesn't scream in the car anymore
Rolls from tummy to back
Smiles and giggles often
High-pitched scream when mad
Loves mirrors
Laughs in her sleep
Enjoys being outdoors


Nothing better than a naked baby!

 Love my girl!

Her neck has gotten so strong!  Tummy time is no longer a miserable part of the day! 


Exersaucer fun!  She LOVES it.  I think she enjoys the freedom of "standing" on her own.


Loves playing with Daddy and his beard

Hangs out in "push-up" position for a good amount of time (and doesn't hate it!)

Hayley met her Great-Grandpa Mel Grams!  The two of them had a good time together.

Hayley was a model patron.


Hayley's newest toy!  She is starting to figure out that she can bounce and spin in her fun contraption!

 THAT SMILE!
