Never getting away from me again

First day with baby

PERCY POV.
  It's been about three days since we brought Zoë home and it's been rough to say the least. She cries whenever we put her down which results in her not sleeping and screaming her little lungs out.
Nighttime hasn't been any different, she cries until one of us picks her up so at about one fifteen in the morning Annabeth and I heard her crying but it was my turn to get up so Annabeth could sleep.

  I walked into her nursery to be met with a smile when she saw me.
  I picked her up and got her a bottle from the fridge, and let me tell you she downed it fast. After she ate she didn't go back to sleep which was an everyday occurrence.
  So I sat down in the rocking chair and her gray eyes looked up at me.
 
  "Zoë, please tell me you're going to sleep sometime in your life because at this point I think you're allergic to sleep. You know, I was so scared when your mama told me about you and I'm still scared to be your dad but if you corporate with me and help me out I think we can get through this. But you have to be nice to your mama because you've been stressing her out lately,"
She blinked at me and then smiled as if she knew she was stressing everyone out.
I laugh quietly,
"Life wasn't going my way for a long time but I think when I found out about you, it made everything better. To be honest with you I'm going to wing everything because I have no idea what I'm doing. I love you more than you'll ever know and understand but know that I do love you."

  I put my hand on her belly and she gripped my index finger as hard as she could before shutting her eyes. Eventually her breathing evens out and I know she's asleep. I stand up and take her into our room to sleep before she absolutely loses her mind again. I lay down next to Annabeth with Zoë on my chest.

ANNABETH POV.
I'm sitting on the couch holding Zoë and reading a book. Percy hasn't woken up yet since he was up almost all night with Zoë and it's only eight thirty.   I'm hungry and Zoë is content so I get up to make breakfast. I put Zoë in her bassinet and went into the kitchen. I started making pancakes and bacon, someone wrapped their arms around me I knew it was Percy.

"Nice to have you join society this morning." I tell him.
  "Hey, I was up with our daughter for 1 hour this morning." He says.
  I laugh and kiss him,
"Do you mind taking care of Zoë so I can finish breakfast also your mom called she said that they will be here at three or three thirty since Paul had to work today." I tell him, he smiles and walks off to hang out with Zoë.

I finish making breakfast and call Percy to eat. He walks in with Zoë in his arms. Zoë seems so small compared to him. He held Zoë while he ate, after I finished I took Zoë and fed her because she was getting fussy.
  I took her to her room and changed her diaper. She took a small nap earlier this morning so she was rested and happy. I changed her out of her pjs and into a white onesie with little gray hearts and a light pink headband. She was giggly and happy. I smiled just looking at her, Percy came in and smiled. "How are my favorite girls?" He asks.

"We're both very happy." I tell him. We hang out for the rest of the day until about noon when we start to get ready for Sally and Paul.

Zoë is finally asleep so Percy and I have some time to clean the guest room for Sally and Paul. We grab the bassinet from Zoë's room and put it in their room for Estelle since she's just a little older than Zoë. 
I started to work on dinner with Percy helping because he doesn't want me doing any strenuous work as I had a baby three days ago but I continue to tell him that I'm fine.
I decided to make chicken Alfredo since it's easy enough.

I start chopping the chicken when I realize I forgot the Alfredo sauce at the store.
  "Hey Perce, I forgot something at the store can you go grab it?" I ask. He agrees and leaves.
