Playtime in June

I love playing outside in my little pool!

7 Months

Hailey's Stats:

Age: 7 months

Weight: 14 lbs 8oz - she gained over 1 lb this month!

Length: 26.5" 

Eye Color: deep blue - they are lightening up some but still very blue

Hair color: blonde- she has lost a little bit of her "mullet" and the rest has started to thicken

Clothing:  6 months or 6-9 month 

Eating Schedule: Every 3 hours fully on the bottle.  We are eating solids about twice a day.  So far we've had banana, pear, sweet potatoes, peas (NOT a fan), some pasta and bread. 

Sleeping: She goes to bed around 8:30pm.  We had some jet-lag issues after Bali but she is sleeping through the night.  She is typically waking up between 7-7:30

Other: She now has 2 bottom teeth and I can tell the top two are making their way in soon.  Hailey has discovered her hands more and likes to hold toys and spin them around. Occasionally I even think she is waving. 
Talking: Just two days ago she started saying "Dada".  Daddy of course is very proud. She learned how to make a clicking noise with her tongue and goes around clicking. 

Activity: Hailey started army crawling all over the house this month.  She recently discovered that she can come find Mom in the kitchen from the play room.  Jacob hasn't been a fan of her new mobility!  She also now can sit unsupported for a while but she hasn't quite figured out that she can't just fall over backwards.  Although she can sit, she still prefers to be on her tummy crawling around. 

Personality:  Hailey is still an easy, happy baby.  She goes with the flow and seems to be ok with being taken around everywhere including Bali.  I'm realizing the exercauser is not her favorite and she really doesn't last very long.  I don't think she likes the confinement.  Hailey is very independent and can play in the floor for a long time by herself without crying or being concerned.  

Here's our beautiful Hailey Bear!

Hailey Takes Bali

What can I say, I have the travel bug?!  After my trip to Vietnam I decided we needed to go to Bali for a little more laid back trip.  Plus I was the only one in my family that hadn't ridden an elephant so I decided it was time to change that.  On this trip I climbed rice terraces, talked to monkeys in the Monkey Forest, walked through Hindu temples, saw a volcano, played on the beach, and did lots and lots of swimming.   It was a wonderful vacation.
