We have a good thing going!

I woke up this morning at 6:00 a.m. and realized that I woke myself up. Sylvia was not crying.  I looked at the baby monitor expectingly, waiting for the cries of Sylvia to fill our bedroom.  Nothing came.  It was silent.  I fell back asleep hesitantly knowing in the back of my mind that my 6 month old alarm clock would be ringing soon.  I again woke at  6:45 a.m. on my own, staring at the baby monitor bracing for it.  Still nothing.  Finally at 7:15 a.m., I heard the tired morning cry of my little one signaling she was in need of her Momma. 

 SUCCESS! The first night that Sylvia slept straight through the night from when we put her in her crib until she was up for the day.  No 2 a.m. crying.  No crack of dawn rising. Amazing. Absolutely amazing.
