Making little boys cry...

seems to be something that Haidyn likes to do. I went to pick her up from Jen's house after work yesterday and she and Will (he's 2 weeks younger than Haidyn) were laying on a blanket on the floor. Will was on his tummy playing with a set of plastic "keys" and Haidyn was on her back. She rolled over on her side, ripped the keys right out of Will's hands and rolled back smiling and playing with her new toy. Will broke down in tears. Apparently, Haidyn does this quite often. We're going to have to sit down and have a little talk about this.

Haidyn's first Great Jones County Fair

Haidyn went to her first fair. I think she had a good time, even if the weather wasn't the best. She did a lot of new things this past weekend. She went to her first concert. She saw Boston. She slept through most of it so I don't think she's a big fan. She also had her first sleepover. She got to stay with Grandma and Grandpa Schatz overnight. Mom and baby handled it pretty well. And she got to drink a little water out of a sippy cup. Not too thrilled with it yet, but she's gonna love it once she gets the hang of it!

4 Month Appointment

Haidyn had her 4 month doctor appointment today. She's doing great! She's 26 inches long and weighs 13 pounds, 15 ounces. That puts her in the 90th percentile for length and 60 percentile for weight. I guess she's still a skinny minny still, even though she looks like a chunk-a-lunk now. She did great with her shots! She let out two little cries after her third shot and then stopped. Doc says we can start some cereal if she needs it, otherwise to hold off until 6 months. So far she's ok, so we'll just wait and see.

**Newest Milestone** She's starting to giggle! She hasn't flat out laughed yet, but she'll let a couple of giggles loose when the puppy licks her feet or you give her a raspberry on her belly. I can't wait until she really laughs!

**Newest Sound** She's found that she can make noises when she breathes in. The bad part about that is that it sounds like she can't breathe. Scares the bejeezus out of me when she first starts with it!

6/26/08 Rolling Over!

Haidyn rolled over! Tummy to back! She was on the couch which has a little bit of a decline, so she cheated a little bit, but I don't care, I'm still calling it her first roll! Very Exciting!

6/12/08

Haidyn is 3 months old already! My how time is going by so fast! She's turning into such a big girl. She's such a happy baby, except when she's tired, then she's little miss cranky pants.

6/6/08 - A week of daycare

Haidyn has made it through a week of daycare, or what we call "school." She seems to have adjusted very well. She smiles at all the kids and even talks to her best friend Gabbi (she's 3). She's sleeping all the way through the night and I've had to wake her up the last couple of mornings to get her ready. Not sure if she's just getting tired out from all the activity at daycare or if she's just hitting a growth spurt and needs the extra rest. We're going to put her to bed earlier at night and see how that works out for her.

6/2/08 - First full day of daycare

Haidyn is at her first full day of daycare today. She seems to be doing really well and likes Jen and the other kids. Jen even sent me a picture of her smiling, so it looks like she's doing ok without her mommy. Wish I could say her mommy was doing ok without her little girl though.
