Megan is now eight weeks old and had her eight-week check with the health visitor on Friday (02 December). The health visitor was very pleased with her progress - she can support her head well, is very alert, follows objects with her eyes, and reacts to sounds.

She has begun to interact with us now, smiling lots, imitating us (smiles if we do, sticks her tongue out if we do) and gurgles and coos when she's happy.

Wearing shoes for the first time.

Gripping my toy. I'm learning how to hold on to things.

Bedtime feed with Daddy. Daddy usually gives me my milk after my bath, then Mummy gives me one last feed before bed.

I like my big brother!

Relaxing on the sofa. My Auntie Heather sent me these shoes - she made them herself!
