5 Years In Review

Now that Hailey is 5, I will continue to fill in all her new accomplishments, but I'm not going to continue on with all the stats from when she was a baby. She is, after all, not a baby anymore, as she constantly likes to remind me.

Height/Weight: 41.75 in and 36.9lbs

Physical Features: Her hair is a rich dark brown. Her hair is just past chin length with long bangs. It is still very fine and soft and flips under. Her eyes look brown to me, but every once in a while, they look hazel (some grayish-green in there, maybe?).  She is average height and thin.

Milestones: She can write her first name in uppercase, write most letters in uppercase and some in lowercase, knows most sounds that the letters make, just began sounding out very basic words (cat, dog, etc), swim with armband floaties, draw pictures of people in action with a background, color inside the lines, tell stories, tell jokes, memorize her favorite books, mostly count to 100, skip, get in and out of car/carseat alone, brush teeth alone, use a butter knife, skate, ice skate, and she just stayed at both sets of her grandparents without us for the first time over spring break. She asks questions about everything and loves to color and draw pictures.  She also likes to have me tell her letters so she can write words. This summer, we plan to work on riding a bike without training wheels, tying her shoes, memorizing her full address and phone number, reading, and swimming without floaties.
