Hailey: 11.3lbs and 23 inches
Hannah: 33.2lbs and 40 inches
Hailey looks great. She's obviously a big girl and getting more than enough to eat. The doctor is a little concerned that she tends to choke at the end of her feedings (could be a sign of reflux) and that she continues to projectile spit-up her entire meal once a day but she gave a few suggestions to try before we start any testing or medication for that. Hailey apparently is favoring one side of her head and since she sleeps so much, she is getting a little bit of a flat spot. The doctor recommended tummy time 4 times a day for 10 minutes each and 4 times a day of an exercise that should help. She also said to make sure we are holding her whenever she is awake but we were already doing that, she's just not awake a lot. The doctor says bigger babies tend to be sleepier babies and that's definitely been true for both girls as infants.
Hannah is doing great. She had her blood pressure taken, got to stand for her height instead of laying down, and had her eyes checked by reading an eye chart. The doctor said she has the size, understanding, and vocabulary of a 4 year old and is doing very well. The doctor even got to see Hannah problem solve after she couldn't get up on the table and decided to drag a chair over so she could climb on it.
Hannah had fun playing with the doctor and got a ton of stickers and a sucker. Hailey just got a shot. Seems a little unfair, huh? ;)
Here's a picture from today of our girls holding their cute animal blankies (that have their names on it) from Aunt Sarah & Uncle Paul:

OK, I'm just going to say it. Where are our pictures of big 1 month and 3 year old girls?!!! All those adorable newborn Hailey pictures, we need our Sweet Sister fix!
Hehe, sure, I'm always up for pictures! I actually took one today because my sister sent Hannah her animal blankie so it's now at the end of the post! :)
Glad to see that I am not the only one with giant children! So cute, too! Glad that you're all doing well.
