Just me and Zoe
Although I stopped working a month ago, I feel like my maternity leave really started today. The house is empty – Q went back to work and his family left this morning – and Zoe and I are on our own. Although things with Zoe have gone swimmingly these past 18 days, today (admittedly) has been tough. For some reason, Zoe decided today was the day she would cry for long stretches and refuse to sleep in her bassinet.
I have three theories for what has happened: 1 – someone replaced my sweet baby with a demon one; 2 – Zoe decided to test me on my first full day on the job; 3 – it’s just a coincidence that my first day alone coincided with her fussiest day yet… I’m going with #3. (Please, God, have it be #3!!)

PS – Because I didn’t see much of this today, I’m posting a picture of cute, sleepy Zoe.

Well, I think that the obvious reason for being fussy today is the lack of Browdys around. Zoe could feel that we all left her, especially Safta and Saba, and she just wanted to let you all know that she misses us already just as much as we miss her.
Zoe, we know that you miss us, so from now on try and be back to the old Zoe who sleeps well and who is the best baby.
Love you and miss you so much,
Safta
