Noelle soon became sleepy and was starting the drift to sleep, so I carried her into her room and before she fell asleep, I changed her into her pyjamas and laid her in the cot, making sure she was asleep before leaving the room.
"Is Noah tired too?" I asked, as they had finished filming Joe's video and now they are going to do Caspar's and Oli's videos.
"I'll go change him and lay him down really quick," Joe nodded.
"Thank you," I smiled, giving him a kiss on the cheek before he left the room.
I chatted with Caspar and Oli until Joe returned and they continued filming.

"Thanks for letting us film here," Oli smiled, giving me a hug as they both left.
"No problem!" I laughed, "It was fun! See you both later, yeah? 'Night!"
"G'night," Joe said to them before he closed the door.
"I feel like it's been such a long evening," I smiled, giving Joe a small kiss as he wrapped his arms around my waist.
"Yeah, it feels like it, hm?" Joe nodded, "But it is half past one."
"Touché," I nodded, putting my hair in pony-tail.
"Come on then, should we get to bed?" Joe shrugged, letting out a yawn.
"Yeah," I nodded, also yawning.
I followed Joe into our room and changed into my pyjamas, before going and taking off my make-up and washing my face. Joe got under the covers in bed and I joined him before we fell asleep.

"Dada!" Noelle cried, waking both Joe and I up through the baby monitor.
"I'll go get her," Joe volunteered, tiredly climbing out of bed and going to Noelle's room.
I leaned to the bedside table and looked at the time: 03:34.
I could hear him talking to her through the baby monitor.
"It's okay baby, Daddy's here, shh," He assured her.
"Dada," She mumbled quietly.
"I love you baby," Joe hummed.
I started drifting back to sleep, listening to Joe comfort Noelle. However, I soon woke up again when Joe came back in the room, carrying Noelle.
"She wouldn't relax, so I brought her in here," He informed me.
"That's fine," I mumbled, still half-asleep.
"Mummy," Noelle mumbled, cuddling up between Joe and I on the bed.
Her warm and tiny body scooted closer to Joe and he put his hand on her back as he gently closed his eyes.
"Shh, go to sleep," Joe hummed quietly to Noelle.
Waking up in the morning, Noelle was cuddled up to Joe still and fast asleep. I quietly and gently got out of bed, careful not to wake either of them up. I made my way through to the kitchen, getting a glass of water and quietly checking on Noah.
"Good morning baby," I smiled, seeing that Noah was, in fact, awake and was playing with his hands and feet, and rolling himself.
I picked him out of his cot and put him on the ground before sitting down next to him and handing him some of his toys. Picking up a book, I decided to read it to him, and I held him on my lap as I sat criss-crossed and read him the story, that honestly, he wasn't really paying attention to. He seemed more interested in his other toy that he had in his hands. But, I read the picture book anyway.
"Minx?" Joe said as he popped his head in the room.
"Morning, I was just playing with Noah so I didn't wake you or Noelle up," I explained.
"No worries. May I join?" Joe smiled, sitting on the ground next to me.
"Of course," I smiled, "Is Noelle still asleep?"
"Yeah, she'll be okay."
I nodded and returned my attention to Noah who was playing with his blocks, throwing them a bit and putting the corner in his mouth.
"How's my Noah doing?" Joe fussed playfully.
Noah babbled playfully, squealing happily at the attention from both Joe and I.
"I cannot understand how you don't see that he looks just like you," I laughed lightly.
"I mean, I can see it a little bit, but he has your eyes," Joe shrugged.
"What the h.ell?" I laughed, "Those are practically your eyes!"
"Well, no matter what we think, I think he is a beautiful baby," Joe smiled, playfully poking Noah noses, making him giggle again.
I moved closer to Joe and he wrapped his arm around me as we both watched Noah play happily.
"I love you," I smiled.
"I love you too," Joe hummed, pulling me in for a kiss.
Once breaking the kiss, Noah had taken the opportunity and was crawling towards the door.
"Want to go play out there?" I laughed lightly, picking him up and carrying him on my hip as Joe playfully pinched my bum.
I put Noah down by the sofas where there are more toys, however, Joe carried some of Noah's toys through for him to continue playing with out here.
"You might as well do a house tour for your channel before the flat gets really messy again," I laughed lightly.
"Yeah, I'll do that a bit later today," Joe nodded, smiling and pulling me in for another kiss before I went into the kitchen and Joe and I started making breakfast, still keeping an eye on Noah and Noelle, as we waited for her to wake-up.
