Mellow ZoZo

I’ve thought for awhile now that Zoe is a terribly sweet, mellow baby – but I’ve also recognized that, as her mom, I’m completely biased. Imagine my happiness, then, when someone outside of the family agreed with me! Yesterday, when I picked up Zoe from daycare, Elena commented on what a good baby Zoe was. Most babies have a hard time adjusting to daycare – to the noise, other kids, etc. – but Zoe, she said, seemed to have no troubles. She has fallen into a regular schedule (which includes two long naps), and she spends much of the day just looking around at the other kids, smiling. I, of course, have *nothing* to do with Zoe’s easy-going nature, but I can’t tell you how proud I felt when Elena said that!

In other news, I’ve seen a real change in Zoe’s little face lately. She’s starting to look less like an average (generic) baby and more like a unique person. Her nose, in particular, is really starting to take shape – and I actually think it might look like mine. I also noticed a tiny, dark fleck in her right eye, and I suspect her eyes (still now a dreamy grey-blue) are starting to change. The big mystery is – to what??

PS – Can you believe she’s almost four months old already? People warned me that time flies with a baby, but I had no idea!

    So hurry up and come to Washington already. You think you have noticed changes. What will it be like for us who haven’t seen her in two months. Too long. Her PortaCrib arrived and is waiting for her, anxiously. Can you leave for here a few days earlier?
