Weighty matters ...

Our third trip to the breastfeeding clinic revealed that "Little Livvy" may need to requisition a new soubriquet sooner rather than later. Her fourth spell on the scales in the past seven days reveals weight gain of exactly 500 grams. That's over a pound in weight, in a week. To put that into context, she still only weighs 3480 grams. So she's put on 14% of her total bodyweight in the time it takes a vicar to do one lap of the parish diary. That would be like me putting on nearly two stone in the same period - I'd have to enrol in Sumo camp to even try it.

Coochee-coo ...

Word reaches me that this blog contains too few gratuitously sweet photographs of my little Mini-Me. Ever sensitive to public will as I am, here's possibly the most extreme example of that particular art form that we have yet managed to capture.

Awww ... little teddy ears!
