Month 2

On Zoë's one month birthday, it was my first day back to work and Zoë's one month check up.  Also on top of that is was Cyber Monday the busiest day of the year for us.  We got to work early I had allowed my self plenty of time to get us both ready and to work.  Every one was so excited to see Zoë.  I worked for about an hour then it was time to go to her apt.

Zoë had fallen asleep on the drive to work and stayed asleep until we got to Dr. Bakers office.  I was excited to hear she was gaining weight.  On 11/29/10 she weighed 10 lbs. 13 oz. was 24.5 inches long and her head was 37.5 cm.

When I got back to work my Boss Kathy had cleaned out her office and loaded it up with her old changing table, bassinet, and glider.  I could not believe that not only was she letting my baby come to work with me she was making it so easy.

It was a lot easier then I thought to have her at work with me.  She slept most of the mornings and at 5 pm she let me know it was time to go home.  She was very content to be in her bouncy chair most of the day.  Some days were vary difficult as I was torn between being a good mom and also being a good employee.  We got through it and my job was getting done so I will mark it as a success.

We drove down to Georgia for Christmas.  The drive went well for Zoë she slept the whole way and we hit very little traffic.  Our car was packed full with the dog, presents and all that Zoë gear.  She was awake a lot more so every one got to hang out with her and play.

It snowed for Christmas!  We woke up to about 6 inches of snow in Georgia.  I was so excited that Zoë's first Christmas was a White Christmas.

Things were getting better and my anxiety was letting up, but I still had very little confidence in myself.
