Nathan’s latest progress

The health visitor came in today so Nathan got his weigh-in and height measured. He’s now coming in at 9lb 5oz (4.24kg) and his height is 55cm. Any observant folks amongst you will realise that his height hasn’t changed from birth, the health visitor says that it is unlikely that the hospital took accurate measurements and that hers is the one we’ll be going on from now.

She also looked at how Nathan was responding to voices, how he was holding his head and how his vision was coming along. He passed with flying colours and she’s very pleased with his progress. She even got some smiles and giggles out of him. We’re officially classing his first smile as the 5th September. Unfortunately the best pictures of smile we have is this one.



He’s also had to go up a size in nappies as the size 1’s were getting a bit tight around the waist! We’re going to try again with the reusable nappies now that they should be as bulky on him- watch out for the photo’s!

While we’re on about 1st’s, Nathan had his 1st holiday (Whitley Bay 17/09/09) and saw his 1st fireworks display (Inverleith Park 06/09/09). He didn’t actually see any of the fireworks as he slept through the entire night!
