Yesterday was a big day for Zoey. She went to school with me to meet all my work friends--who all absolutely adored her, of course. She was so good--she slept most of the time. My colleauge Chris had a baby 5 weeks ago and little Anna was at school too--so we put them side by side to compare size--I can't believe that Zoey is going to grow like that. I want her to stay small!
Zoey slept for most of our outing--except to wake for nursing and an eventful diaper change. When I opened the diaper the flood gates opened all over my table at school and on her clothes, she was crying because she wanted to be fed, it was hot, and then I noticed that her umbilical cord was ready to fall off. It was all happening at once. But I stayed calm and we got through it. So far, Tyler and I are lucky that she is easy to comfort and calm.
Later that day, after she was safe at home again, she had her first "blow out" in her diapers. We were such proud parents. (Actually we were very happy about it because she hasn't been going as much as she is suppose to--and I was getting worried. ) Her umbilical cord did finally fall off that evening.
To top the whole day off--Zoey got to go on her very first trip to Target--an experience that once again she slept through. She will have plenty of opportunities to shop at Target with me in the future though.
After her bath we put her to sleep in the basinet and she actually slept for most of the night--with the exception of feeding--which I had to wake her for. Tyler and I both slept great! Let's all pray that this will turn into the normal pattern.
Well--Zoey has another field trip planned for today to go visit Daddy's workplace and meet more people. So we are going to go and start our day!

Zoey had a "blast" at school by baptising a table with a little poo-poo? Hope Mommy and Daddy brought her some spare clothes.
Anyway,I was waiting to hear a report of the first event that would fill her socks as well as the diaper, clothing and anything else underneath. Go Zoey! That was good to hear.
A one week old compared to a five week old. Yow! How fast they grow. But, keep dressing her in those cute little things -- even at home -- because you won't be using them for very long. And you may have to change her 5 minutes after getting something really cute on her. Hmmm... that may be how girls get into fashion. You know we girls can never have enough shoes.
