Cheyne Walk Park
Mum would go for walks (often with dad) whilst she was pregnant and she continued to do so after my arrival.
We would often go along the river bank towards Chelsea stopping off at the parks to take in the views whilst feeding me.

Car Trip
Well, mum and dad are not resting nor have they let little ol' me slow them down.
Dad bought some parts off ebay which he had to pick up as the seller would not post them. He decided that we could have a day out and on the way collect them. To do this dad hired a car and we would then drive to Nottingham (approx 2 1/2 hours each way).
Mum did a internet search to see what touristy places were around the area and found Bletchley Park (home of the Enigma machine and the WWII code breakers). This seemed like it could be good to spend half a day at so they decided to do this before picking up the parts.
Mum packed our lunch (milk for me and sandwiches for mum and dad) and, of course, all my gear (pram, nappies, changing items, spare clothes, etc).
The day before we went dad and I tried to use the baby carrier but decided it wasn't working after I didn't stop screaming. He concluded that I was just a little small for it (at the moment). However, as I was happy in the car seat dad decided that we could still go.
The day only had one hitch and that was when we were just exiting London. I decided to grizzle a bit (well, actually a full on tantrum) in the car just as dad was on the freeway (no exits for 15 mins). When dad finally managed to exit I decided that I'd had enough of screaming and went to sleep. Mum and dad could not find a reason for my little tantrum (not hungry, not a dirty nappy, etc) so they gave up and continued their journey.
At Bletchley Park mum and dad enjoyed a changeable day looking at all the displays. I contently slept in the pram.
While mum fed me (via a bottle) my lunch several groups of people walked past; all of which commented on how gorgeous I am.
One group of 3 recently retired women stopped and quizzed mum and dad about me. One decided that she'd offer mum some advice - mum should cover me up as it's a cool whilst I had my milk. Mum politely thanked her. As these women were going to walk back past us in a few minutes (due to the way the outdoor displays were organised) dad put a blanket on me. The lady which made the comment was so happy that mum had taken her advice she stopped and expressed her happiness to mum and dad. As soon as the women left dad took off the blanket as I was very hot and was begining to grizzle.
Having seen all the displays mum and dad decided it was time to collect the parts.
We arrived at the sellers house (right smack in suburbia) and I decided to cry (very very loudly). I had not only exploded my nappy (oh yeah it was full) but I was hungry. :0
Mum had little choice but to change me on the bonnet of the car. This was all well and good except that a small gaggle of girls (approx 5) aged around 8 years old walked past just as my nappy was whipped off.
Several shreaks and giggles emenated from the girls as they got a full on view of my naked bottom. No doubt this scene would be discussed in their houses tonight.
I cant believe my mother!
After finishing my nappy change dad fed me and we headed home with no further issues.
