Leaving your baby for the first time is no small thing, but Alex Drummond has officially crossed it off the list. After a fun-filled weekend in Charleston for Paige's bachelorette party, Alex returned home with a little perspective—and a sweet update for followers about how it all went.
"This weekend was honestly so great!" she shared in an Instagram story after the trip. "Had the best time celebrating my sis all of her sweet, fun friends."
Before heading out, Alex had admitted she was a little nervous about being away from Sofia for the first time. Luckily, Mauricio and his mom were on duty! Throughout the weekend, they sent plenty of photos and updates on Sofia: One snap showed her lounging in her bouncy chair, another wrapped up in a cozy blanket, and one especially sweet photo caught her mid-giggle. It's safe to say she was in good hands!
Alex later told followers that while it was "hard" leaving Sofia, it ended up being "so encouraging" to finally do it for the first time. "Now I'll feel more comfortable leaving her in the future knowing that she will survive," she joked. "She did great with Mauricio and his mom!"
And the weekend away was more than worth it! Paige had the best time surrounded by her favorite women, celebrating her upcoming wedding with delicious food, great friends, and lots of laughs. Of course, that doesn't mean Alex didn't miss Sofia—and, yes, there may have been some tears when she got home. (Of the overjoyed and overwhelmed variety!)
Now, this matron of honor is happily back in baby mode. "I'll be enjoying all the baby snuggles for the next 5 to 10 business days," Alex said after reuniting with Sofia. In other words... do not disturb! 😂
