Well as you might have guessed Lauren has her first pair of shoes! We bought them today, and although she's wasn't too keen at first, she's discovered that her walking has improved. Unfortunately she'd already done some crawling before I took the photos - so the shoes are scuffed!

The first photo was taken yesterday at Lauren's first invitation to a birthday party. The boy in the picture is William and Lauren knows him from playgroup - they play together every Thursday morning and are really very cute. This was also the first time for both of them in a sandpit - although don't know how much sand was left as they had both eaten quite a bit!

Lauren is really crawling this week - she's off and about and loves following people. She still crawls to furniture & people to pull herself up and walk around, as she really is happiest on her feet - hence the shoes! She's been much happier towards the end of the week - full of laughter and smiles. It's made me realise that she's not really been herself for a week or so, and I think the cause of that could be her third tooth, which looks like it's about to appear any day. This is another bottom tooth - to the left of the two she already has - hopefully she'll start getting some top ones soon, otherwise she could look quite weird!
