Todd: So, Simon, I have to congratulate you. I hear you have new child.


Simon: That's right.


Todd: Wow. You're a papa. (Yeah) So what's it like being a father?


Simon: Well, it is a completely different lifestyle than before - Papahood, parenthood. Yeah, so, yeah. Life totally changes.


Todd: Like how so? How has your life changed?


Simon: Well, I don't get as much sleep as I used to because as newborn babies they get all the time. They poop all the time. They want to eat all the time, so I change diapers, I feed a bottle. You got to carry it all the time if he's feeling lonely. I have a son by the way. It requires a lot of attention and of course, you want to be with your baby so that helps.


Todd: Now, since you had your child, your routine 1 has changed, but have your felt that your personility has changed?


Simon: I don't think so. People don't change that easily. You just adjust to a new factor in your life, so maybe I put more priority 2 on things like money and time spent.


Todd: Right. Fair enough. Fair enough.


Simon: So, like what's a typical day. What do you do on a typical day with your baby, like from morning to night?


Todd: Well, for one, it's got to be said, I'm the father so I don't have as much to do as his mother but when I work, you know I'm the bread-winner so my job is to make money so that I can buy all the stuff 3 that he needs.


Simon: On my day off, basically 4 I wake up, let my better-half have breakfast and I take care of him that way. Change his diaper. Do little stuff like that. Then, yeah, it's basically, it's actually quite monotonous 5 really, you just change the diaper, feed, relax, change the diaper, feed, play, relax. It's kind of like a cycle but you know, when he smiles at me then it's all worth it.


Todd: Cool man.
