All About Hadley: One Month Old

Little Miss Hadley is now one month old! She already has the cutest personality and is growing so much.


At her two week appointment she weighed 7 lbs, 1 ounce and was 20 1/2 inches long.  She eats about every 2 hours for about 5-6 minutes, and she sometimes eats every hour depending on if she spits it all up on not afterwards.  After she eats she usually goes into a milk comma and usually will fall asleep in my arms or on my chest. 


October 16, 2014- Two Week Check Up
She still is in newborn diapers (Pampers Swaddlers) and wears white newborn onesies with mittens all day every day. She doesn't like having anything on her feet, especially when we swaddle her.  After we tightly swaddle her up she will wiggle her way around and out will come her cute little feet.  She doesn't like wearing footed pajamas, socks, or very large bows.


She loves snuggling with mommy and daddy in their bed and loves it when we sleep on the glider with her on our chest.  We have also discovered that she loves the song "Glorious" by David Archuleta and it can calm her down when she is fussy.  She scrunches her forehead (which apparently she got from me...) and does double sneezes (which she got from Grandpa Woody).  She sleeps with her mouth wide open (which she got from the Hayward side) and loves sleeping all day and being awake all night.  She is a little squeaker and makes the best noises.  We finally had to try putting her in her crib in her nursery because she would wake us up with all her little squeaks.  She is a fighter that's for sure and is always throwing punches left and right. 


Hadley loves doing what I call "secret smiles".  She will smile every once in awhile and when I try to take a picture, she stops.  Although I did manage to catch one picture. We sure do love this cute girl and can't wait for her to start smiling more each day!



Hadley has had a lot of "firsts" this past month, but some of the big ones are her first bath and her first blow out.  After exploding through her diaper and then spitting up at the same time we decided that it would be a perfect time to give her a nice clean bath.  When we would give her sponge baths she didn't like it very much, but once we were finally able to give her a real bath and put her in the warm water, she loved it!

She loves sponge baths...haha not.

We have loved every minute with Hadley and couldn't imagine life without her!  We can't wait to see how much she grows this next month and be able to experience new things with her.  Here are a few pictures from this past month!

Snoozin' all day long

    1. Crazy huh?! We still try to put them on her to keep her feet warm but she will either get super fussy or kick her legs and get them off. It's actually pretty hilarious. She literally will kick everything and anything off her feet. But thank you Ally! :) We love having you as her aunt!
