day 1 down...going well!

day one of crib training was a great success! she went down at 6:45 and woke again at 8 so we let her cry it out....22 minutes :( but then she didnt wake until 11 and that time only cried 1 minute sleeping until 3, cried for 10 minutes and slept until 6am! the latest she has EVER slept! she was even snoring this morning. of course i didnt sleep at all as i was so afraid she had stopped breathing but all was well....aaahhhh - this is going to be a great thing! today she took a very late morning nap at daycare so was tired when i picked her up. she has now been sleeping an hour and it's almost 5pm so i have a feeling it's going to be a rough start to the night as i broke the never let a baby sleep past 3 rule....but what do you do when she's tired and it's still almost 4 hours until bedtime? hopefully tonight will be okay as i'm going it alone....not that brad even woke up last night. how he sleeps through her crying is beyond me! oh well he needed his sleep as he has 4 nights of flying in a row starting tonight.
here are some pics of her posing in her adirondack chair from gma and gpa savage...
