It has been well over a month since the very first picture of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's baby girl North West emerged.
But the 32-year-old reality star has now shared a second snap of her adorable daughter with the world on Instagram.
And judging by the heart-melting image, North appears to have grown quite a bit in the past few weeks.

The tiny tot is seen swaddled up tight in a baby blanket and resting on a very expensive-looking fluffy white rug.
SNUG AS A BUG IN A RUG: HOW SWADDLING MADE A COMEBACK
Kim Kardashian's new picture of baby North reveals that she is the latest celebrity mother to swaddle her newborn.
The old-fashioned technique, which sees babies wrapped snugly to create a womb-like environment, is believed to calm them and aid sleep - and has seen a revival of late thanks to high-profile endorsement from the likes of the Duchess of Cambridge and Jessica Simpson.
But while adored by generations of new parents, swaddling is also a source of controversy. Somemedical studies have suggested a link between swaddling and an increased risk of cot death, hip development problems and posture issues.
This has lead to conflicting advice, with experts divided on the subject.
Many U.S. childcare workers were furious when daycares across the country began banning swaddling after updated safety standards for early care and education programs advised against the practice.
But the American Academy of Pediatrics says that swaddling is an effective way to calm infants, 'especially in the newborn period'.
Her eyes are looking up in the image and she has grown many, many strands of dark hair on her head.
With her chubby little cheeks and big brown eyes, little North is looking like the perfect combination of both her mother and father.
In an accompanying caption, Kim, who has been in Paris for the last few days with Kanye wrote: 'I missed waking up with my little angel.'
On Tuesday night, the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star was seen arriving back in Los Angeles following her trip to France for Paris Fashion Week.
She no doubt jetted straight home to get baby North from the clutches of her momager Kris Jenner, who had supposedly been helping out on baby sitting duties.
It had been reported that Kim warned her family not to share photos of her daughter while she was away.
Kim is said to have left North - who she calls 'Nori' - in the care of her mother, Kris, and sisters, Kourtney and Khloe, while she attended PFW with her boyfriend.
She reportedly instructed them to be extra cautious about the pictures they share on Twitter and Instagram while she was away.
A source told gossip website NaughtyButNiceRob.com: 'Kim does not think for one minute that her mom or sisters would try to sell pictures of North.'

'Her concern was that everyone in the family loves to post pictures of what they are doing all the time on Twitter, and that this is something that she does not want to happen while she is away.'
The insider added: 'She knows her daughter is in safe hands, not very discrete hands, but safe!'
Right up until Friday, Kim and Kanye had only released one image of their precious baby girl since Kim gave birth to her back in June.

They chose to share the snap on Kris Jenner's self-titled talk show, when Kanye appeared on the programme for a lengthy sit down chat with the matriarch.
The brunette beauty previously admitted that Kanye, 36, inspired her to become more private.
She said: 'When you spend time with someone, you learn things from them, so I see what (his) views are in wanting to be private, so that's a choice we make together as a family just in how we're gonna raise our kid.'

Now that Kim has returned to Los Angeles and back to motherly duties, it may well be time for her, Kanye and baby Nori to move into their Bel Air mansion.
Construction has continued on the sprawling abode since Kim and Kanye have been overseas.
Work on the home had been delayed earlier this year, pushing back the new family's move in date.
The luxurious home - which Kim bought in July for $10,750,000, according to Trulia - has been been gutted, as the couple seek to put their own stamp on it.
