2 1/2 weeks old

Hailey is now 2 1/2 weeks old. She had her first doctor's appt. last week and now weighs 7lbs. 6 oz. and is 21 inches long. She is a good eater! For weight she is in the 25th percentile and for height she is in the 75 percentile. Maybe she will be a tall girl. We will have to wait and see. The doctor says she is very healthy. She is sleeping 3-4 hours at a time at night which is nice. She has been a easy baby so far. Maddie is adjusting to her new sister pretty well. She does want extra attention from us especially when we are holding Hailey. She has been very gentle with her little sister though, giving lots of hugs and kisses. Madison does not seem to like the name we picked out for her sister. She refuses to call her Hailey and calls her Kaylee or Katie instead. I was having her practice saying "Hay" and she said, " I don't want to say Hailey". So, I know she can say it but prefers her names to mine. Maddie continues to be independent and a spit fire. She has had a fun summer and has gone lots of places. She especially enjoys going to Mall of America to take pictures with the characters, going to the library, the puppet wagon, the park, and swimming. I will post some pics of her activities and the girls together.
