Four Months Old - Our Tall, Thumby, Teething Baby!

That's right folks, we have a four month old on our hands now and contrary to her parents' wishes, she's showing no signs of slowing down! 

Hailey's getting more into her bumbo seat, which is great because it's one step closer to sitting up on her own.
Whooooooa. Toys.
And tummy-time is hit or miss in our household with her, except when we break out the sweet vanity mirror that Michelle gave her for Christmas! Hailey's a little narcissistic and loves looking at herself in the mirror, but HEY whatever gets her into tummy time is OK by me!

We have to look our best when cheering on our Niners!
And her new party trick is sucking her thumb. Before this she pretty much just tried to eat her whole hand, but now she's discovered her thumb... which is just beyond cute because it's so tiny!! We're still giving her a pacifier though when she's fussy or tired (these go hand in hand most times) so hopefully she doesn't get too addicted to either.

Thumb Sucker Extraordinaire
So why the sudden interest in thumbs and pacifiers? TEETHING!!!! Yup, Hailey has her very first tooth coming in! Unfortunately we found this out after a particularly cranky Christmas night. Poor thing was crying for a while and we finally discovered the problem. Bottom left corner tooth has made its way to the surface!

Say AHHH!!!  Hard to see but that back white spec is tooth
After that cranky night, Hailey has been feeling much more like her happpy giggly self thankfully :) This nursing mommy is crossing her fingers that the rest of those teeth take their time getting here. OUCH for both of us!

Hailey's four month doctor's visit went great and she took her shots like a champ, only crying for about 5 seconds.
Happy Nekkid Baby!
Turns out she's 26" tall and 14lbs 4oz, which puts her at 96th percentile in height and 50th percentile in weight. Long and lean! But more importantly, she's healthy, which is all that matters :-)

Our not so short baby!
Other than that, we've been busy with the holiday rush and running around making memories.

Half Moon Bay stroll
Gotta protect those baby blues!
Loitering at the Ritz Carlton fire pits
Not a bad little afternoon
Asleep as usual! But still rockin the shades.
Hiking Edgewood - Daddy gave Hailey his shades
Fun Hike!
And last but not least... here's a picture of the neighborhood kids at our Holiday Gift Exchange. Nicholas (running out of the pic lol), Kendall, Aiden, Brewer, Alex and Hailey!
