Hailey + Hunter Are 4 Months Old

These two cutie pies are now 4 months old! These last few weeks have really been a lot of fun with their personalities shining through, the endless smiles and their cute language they have with one another. Their interactions with each other is very entertaining. There are times that each of them will look at the other and just stare into their eyes while the other pretends like they aren't paying attention.. maybe they aren't, but it is really cute! They like to hold one another's hands and even steal one another's toys... oh yep that has started already!
Hailey is very much in tune with emotions and if you are upset, she gets upset. She loves to look into your eyes when you feed her and now is even wanting to hold her own bottle. She will pull the bottle into her mouth and then take it out on her own. She also will push away the bottle if she is full. She really likes to sit up and enjoys the new view she has from that angle. If she is propped up on the pillow, she will use her ab muscles to sit herself all the way up and smiles as if she is so proud of herself! Hailey has been sleeping in her crib at night and is fairly easy to get to sleep. She will sleep from about 7pm to 11:30 (sometimes until after midnight on a good night) in her crib before she will wake up requesting a bottle. The good news is that she can actually sleep in the crib and not in her cradle like her brother.
Hunter is such a smiley baby. When you make funny faces at him he will laugh and give the biggest baby smile! He also likes to hold his bottle on his own, but he gets fancy with it by holding onto the end acting like he's hot stuff. He has been sleeping in his cradle in his own room. He usually will sleep from 7pm until 4:30 A.M. when we get up for work. Of course we don't get to sleep in on the weekends and we have to remind ourselves that it is good they wake up that early to stay on their schedule. Hunter has slept 5 days in a row all night like this. To get him to sleep he has to be rocked, shhh'd and patted on the bum or else he will scream! It's amazing the lungs this kid has. Hunter is also good at sitting up and enjoys seeing what mommy and daddy are up to.
Both babies also love to watch their Disney movies. In afternoon we will put on a movie for them and they really sit there and watch it! Hailey will even cry at the sad or scary parts while Hunter coo's during the action! Their favorites include Madagascar, Tangled and Tarzan! Those movies come on and they will sit there for almost the full movie to watch it.
