This was the first we heard of her since putting her down at 10:45 PM the evening before.
Miracle of miracles, she slept through the entire night.
It was really funny, actually. My alarm clock went off this morning at 7:00 and the first words out of Sarah's mouth were, "is she dead?" before jumping out of bed and running to Margaret's side.
Thankfully, she was just asleep.

I was quickly called over to her cribside to marvel at this new, life changing phenomenon. After a suitable period of dumbstruck awe, I broke out the camera and started snapping photos. This was the reason I wasn't out the door until about 10 minutes after I usually leave.
We are both ecstatic by this new development but know that it is unlikely to be repeated tonight. Not only was Margaret's sleep patterns off this afternoon but we just had a new crib delivered today and wonder if Margaret will be able to adjust to it so quickly.

Regardless, we are happy to know that she can, in fact sleep through the night and will be hoping for the best, now, every time we put her down to sleep.
We'll keep you posted.

YAY!!! What a moment. Even if short-lived, you know it's possible. There's hope for a decent night's sleep coming soon- especially after you stop worrying about not having heard her!
Hilarious! I had the same reaction when Clara first slept all the way through the night: 1) checked that she was in fact breathing, and 2) did a silent dance of joy. Hooray!!!
