It's been a while since the last blog, the two main reasons for this are that Daddy has been busy away at work and also the fact that our Broadband was down for a few days.

Daddy is finding it difficult being away from Maisie - some days he leaves for work before Maisie wakes up and there are also days when Maisie is already in bed when Daddy gets home.

"Daddy this is one of the best present you've given me"

I guess that's another reason why there's been a delay in the blog - Daddy's not seen Maisie so has nothing to write about. Who'd have thought the day would come that Daddy wanted Maisie to wake up early.

Daddy still sneaks into Maisie's room and reads her a story - being careful not to wake her as Mummy wouldn't be very happy.

"That's my mouth full!"

As you can see Maisie is still eating well. We aren't sure how much she weighs and Maisie wasn't too happy with the way Zach tried to find out;

"really Zach? I thought that this was for pigs!"

Uncle Matthew and Aunty Alison were over from Italy, Maisie was glad to see Alison but couldn't quite cope with the mustache that Matthew was growing for Movember.  

"Please don't make me look at Uncle Matthew" 

It was a busy weekend, next on the agenda was a visit to see Aunty Eleanor and Uncle Carl.

Not sure that Maisie should be left alone with Uncle Carl look at the mess, and what's that Maisie's playing with; 

"Uncle Carl - this is the biggest box of matches I've ever seen!"

Maisie wasn't feeling well this week - a chest infection required a trip to the doctors for some antibiotics. Maisie chest wasn't very good at all, very wheezy and rattlely. 

Maisie got comfort from her bottle

It was touch and go whether Maisie would need a visit to the hospital. Still being on oxygen at night gave Maisie a helping hand and as Maisie is getting bigger and stronger she fought off the infection after a few days. 

and was soon back to enjoying herself

Maisie and Megan are getting closer and closer each day - they seem to be helping each other get over their separation from their Dad. 

Inseparable!
