Alfie David Collins sat in his bouncey chair in the front room of the glass house. He'd been home for just over 24hours now and his grandparents were getting ready to go back to their house in a different town. His Dad, Grandad and Godfather were packing the car as his Mum and Grandmother sat in the kitchen having a final coffee and catch up. Not that any of that mattered to Alfie. He was focused on the tou daggling just out reach and the comforting voice of his Godmother. He was yet to understand parents, or grandparent or Godparents. He just knew he was safe and this was his family.
Claire walked into Alfie view and scooped him into a warm hug. Alfie made some confused sounds then settled into his mum's neck. He could see his Grandma walking in from the kitchen. He is passed from his mother to his Grandmother and then Grandfather, both cuddling him goodbye. He is passed back to his father who craddles him to his chest.
They glass house gang plus Alfie in Shane's strong arms waved Claire's parents off from the poach. Shane wrapped his free arm around Claires waist and guided her in to the house with Michael and Eve following closely. The gang sat on the two love seat sofas watching baby Alfie blow bubbles and make cute baby noises.
After a bit, Alfie began to show signs he was hungry. Shane passed him to a exsthaded Claire, who smiled as she began to feed him snuggled into her chest. She found feedimg him hard but worth the effort, afterall it was the best for her baby. She had been exspressing to began with whilst he still needed to be food feed so they already had a small storage they could use for bottle feeds. The Hosptial had been great at supporting her with as well, she had to admit she couldnt have managed without their support and the support from the rest of the glass house.
20minutes after his feed, Alfie needed a diper change. Which Eve excitedly volunteered to do. Shane laugh and called her a freak whilst Claire thanked her best friend passing thd baby to her. Alfie heard the usual "mind his head" as he was passed the carried upstairs by his godmother. He settled into her neck, realising his need were about to be seen to.
As they left the room, Shane suggested bring changing stuff down stairs to save going up and down so often.
meanwhile, Eve tended to Alfie needs in the nursery. She changed him into a clean baby grow so he was ready for bed. She watched his adorable yawns as he stretched his arms up above his head. she wrapped him tightly into a blanket and cuddled him in to her, with the hopes he'd fall to sleep, she carrying him down stairs. Clsire was already asleep agaisnt Shane, who didnt look too far from sleeping either. Eve snugged herself next to Michael, cuddling Alfie into her chest. Michael put a movie on the tv and the glass house gang settled into their first movie night as a five. Even if half the group were fast asleep by the end credits.
