Hi everyone,

You may have noticed I haven't really been around over the last couple of weeks (although I did meet some of you at Ford Fair which was nice).

The reason I've been away is that my Wife and I have just had first baby together, a little girl called Isla (see photo below) :D

Naturally I've been really busy and not really had a chance to do anything but I'm back now after taking two weeks away from the real world!

congrats - hopefully a good baby who won't give you too many sleepless nights. Did ever sell the ST and get a family car?? :P

Thanks guys. The nights haven't been too bad to be honest as luckily she sleeps quite well. We've actually had to wake her up sometimes during the night in order to feed her. Having said that, it still feels like I haven't slept properly since she was born. My sleep patterns have been incredibly disjointed, and yes Higgsy sadly the ST went a few months back!

oh thats good then, can't ask for more if they sleep well - getting them into a routine early is the key - although I bet you've heard that a million times! All Zafiras from now on then!

Once again congrats!

Everyone keeps telling me that girls are easier at this age but of course this all reverses when they get toward their teenage years so I'm sure I have that all to look forward to! :)

The "You are not going out dressed like that" and "What do you mean you've got a boyfriend?" years. lol.

I think you have a bit of time to enjoy before worrying about that though.

Has it felt like it has changed you? A lot of people say they feel different after becoming a parent.

Congratulations mate. She's beautiful. I have to agree with the comment girls are better at the younger age. I've got a 4 year old boy who didn't sleep through the night till he was 2 and a half. Lol.

My girl is 8 weeks old and only waking up once so I'm hoping she will go through the night sooner rather than.later.

Lovely name aswel.

I guess I definitely feel a greater sense of responsibility now and obviously want to spend a lot more time with the family. I wouldn't say it's changed me as a person though, not yet anyway! :)

She's not been too bad actually, she's been feeding just before we go to bed at around 10pm, then around 2/2.30am and then around 6am, after which I just stay up! :D
