Sleep when the baby sleeps, that's what all the books said. But Percy had work to do and neither he nor his beloved wife were willing to let the new center of their world out of their sight.
It was Vex's turn to attempt to nap, or whatever else she chose to do in the time that Percy claimed his daughter's presence. A bit of ingenuity had adapted a trail bag into a small pouch that he could wrap around his chest, keeping baby Elaina snugly against his heart. Thus situated, he took her with him as he worked on a few non-forge projects. Together, father and daughter went up to the library and collected a coffee, stopping to check out a couple of engineering books and then to the women's restroom to make a couple sketches.
Why there was only a baby changing table in the women's restroom Percy had no idea but he meant to correct it.
Percy settled at a table in the library and set to work while Elaina napped, small mouth slack and wet against his formerly clean white shirt. Her dark hair was surprisingly full, as he had been of the opinion that babies were properly bald for at least a good year.
