It never ceases to amaze Adam: the sheer amount of mess that a newborn baby can produce. Harriet's on her second full change of clothes for the day and Adam's lost count of how many diapers he's changed since he woke up this morning. He needs a change of clothes himself after Harry looked up at him, blue eyes perfectly placid, and projectile vomited over both of them.

First things first, though.

Leaning over to check the heat of the water in the sink with his elbow, he glances back at Sarah, sitting in the battered leather armchair where he left her, Harry wrapped in a towel in her lap. In the middle of the afternoon, the kitchen is realtively quiet. Perfect timing.

"I'm glad you're finding this amusing, love," he says, crossing to them, dropping a kiss onto Sarah's forehead, his fingers skimming the top of Harry's head.

It's difficult for Sarah to focus. Her eyes drift back and forth between the tiny bundle in her arms and the man who may never be her husband, but might as well be. "Do I look amused?" she murmurs, a faint, unusually peaceful smile on her face when his lips touched her skin.

"Maybe a little," he says, smiling himself as he holds out his hands. "Come on. Give her to me."

Only a few weeks as parents under their belts, but they're doing fine. They're doing just fine.

ooc: Mommy, Daddy and baby Harry. Tag Sarah, tag Adam or tag both - just let us know in the comments!
