Brian Dowling and Arthur Gourounlian have had their first night off baby duty.
The exhausted pair had an early one yesterday when Brian’s younger sister kindly volunteered to babysit even though she is getting married in two days. The pair said they truly appreciated the lovely gesture as they look exhausted after becoming first-time parents.
Brian posted a picture of them tucked into bed and said: “How SMUG do we look? We are currently in the guest bedroom AKA known as @effidy_dowling_ room. My baby sister Tara clearly saw my post yesterday and felt so bad for us that she offered to babysit Baby Blake tonight so we can have a good night's sleep.

“Clearly, it’s needed as I’m mid-yawn in this pic. This is super kind of Tara especially as she is getting married on Thursday. She’s either SUPER AMAZING OR SUPER SILLY. So if the bride looks tired on Thursday, Blake is sorry. Now Arthur and I are going to have chocolate in bed and catch up on some of our tv shows before I fall asleep.
“It really is the simplest thing, people. I am TRULY BLESSED with the BEST FAMILY. Now let's see how long I last before running upstairs and checking in on Blake..”
Brian also dedicated a post to his beloved daughter on Sunday. He said that nothing can prepare you for parenthood and despite being tired, he feels more confident and relaxed.
The Big Brother legend posted: “I look ABSOLUTELY DELIRIOUS in these pics. They were taken the night you were born during our first night feed. Honestly NOTHING can really prepare you for parenthood. I was so nervous doing the first few feeds and any time she cried I would become so anxious.
“We are now 10 days in and I'm feeling so much more relaxed and confident. We are letting Blake lead the way for us @gourounlian and set the tone, this could be a bad idea as she’s only 10 days old.
“I find myself sometimes just looking at her beautiful little face and smiling. The tiredness is of course on another level but I’ve been more tired before from big nights out. I can already tell that Blake is a determinant little girl and each day we see more of her personality.”
