Growing: Hays update

What has been going on since I last posted?  Well I can happily say we have been enjoying Hays' many laughs and smiles.  Hays may be my best baby yet - he's a good sleeper, he enjoys people-watching, and he smiles all the time.  He's been called "Happy Hays" more than once around our house.


Of course, he's a healthy eater, too.  In fact, Hays at four months is larger than Clara and Paul were at six months.  Longer and heavier.  Whoa.  He was 19.9 pounds on his four-month birthday.  I'm sure he's well over 20 pounds by now.

He is trying to gnaw on anything he can get his hands on.  Literally.  There's a bottom tooth that I know will pop through almost any day now.

Still working on rolling over.  He's trying pretty hard and has done it a handful of times, but not repetitively, so I wouldn't say we've crossed that milestone off the list.

Hays enjoys putting weight on his legs, which besides just holding him (and I just told you that he is HEAVY) means he spends time in the Johnny Jump-Up and Exersaucer.  Thank goodness!

Hays: One Month


It's hard to believe that this little man is already one month old!


Well, it is and it isn't.  He's already outgrown the newborn clothes.  On to the 0-3 month stuff!
And tonight I put him in a size 2 diaper... whoa.  This guy is growing fast.


There's been a few nights of colicky crying, but a little "Colic Calm" (yes, that's literally the name) before symptoms arise, and me cutting out the gas-a-licious veggies (broccoli, cauliflower, kale) seem to be helping.  We had one night where he slept six hours straight!  Scared me half to death!


And if you can't tell from the above picture, that's Hays saying, "Okay, enough pictures, Mom.  Get some clothes on me!"
