3 month old Hailey

Our sweet little girl is already 3 months old!  Look at her and all her cuteness:

 

Happy Baby!!  She is smiling with her whole body in this picture!

And here's Hailey at Memere's House in her prrtty dress:

Hailey's development:
She can lift her head up really well when doing tummy time, and for a long time too.  She tolerates it for a much longer time now, too.  She doesn't really use her arms to push herself yet, its mostly all back extension.  :)  People always comment on how strong and solid she is when they hold her.
She "talks" all the time - which sound like happy squeals mostly.  She smiles all the time and is just a gnerally happy baby! Her laugh is sorta breathy and she doesn't really giggle yet.  Hailey is so social... she lights up when you stop and talk to her and she is really learning to talk to you, too!  She especially likes to hear her mommy's voice. :)  She is doing well in daycare and gets lots of love there... Noah is surrounded by little girls and they all love her to pieces.
She follows people and objects with her eyes really well, in fact she was watching Chris' helicopter flying around yesterday!  She likes to look at her star when in her play area, too, but really one of her favorite things - watching her big brother!  She loves her Noah!  (And he sure loves her too!)
Hailey has found her own hands and will clap them together at times now, but she also likes to suck on her hands or thumb.  Doh.  She will hold a rattle only briefly when I give it to her, but grabs onto my fingers or shirt or a blanket a lot.
She will bear weight on her legs quite well and when we do sit ups, she most often will hold her head level with her body.

Hailey weighs about 12 pounds (still 50th percentile) and started going to daycare this month.  She has had some diarrhea though, which we are getting tested to make sure she's okay.  She may have gotten something t day care or perhaps is milk intolerant. Despite the evidence in the diaper, you wouldn't think anything was wrong and she is the most happy, content baby, just like Noah was!
