Day 105: A Change of Pace

Date: Friday 11th July
Song of the day: I See You Baby - Groove Armada

So I will give little updates while we are in London, as we will be doing some exciting things.

Today, was definitely a change of pace. We baby sat for some friends last night who are looking after Jarno for us. This was fine, they have 2 beautiful daughters aged 2.5 and 0.5 years each. Fantastically well behaved for us, we had a great time. In the morning though, things took a turn for the worse as Laurie and I had to come to grips with Nappy changing for the first time ever.

It seems quite something that we could get to 30 and not have changed a nappy, but Laurie was an only child and I was the youngest, so its not that surprising. So we let mum and dad sleep and we decided to tag team the nappy. We had been warned that the litte girl in question wasn't a big fan of nappy changes, but apart from a few grumbles, she was fine. We managed to whip the offending article off and into the smell safe bags (its a cliche, but how does something so small, produce so much, and with such an interesting aroma), and while I held up the legs, Laurie cleaned, creamed and renappied said bottom. No worries. One happy little lady snuggled into my shoulder and started to drool. Awwww, I may make a dad yet.

We headed into London, and back to our old flat where we are staying whilst in London. We meet the new flatties Dave and Claire, and then enjoyed an evening of DVD's and Cuba Libre's. All-in-all a good first day back in London
