Our first night as parents (not including our 4-legged babies)

A little tough! We were busy (although today we can’t remember doing what – probably just staring at Emerson) until about 9 and so we started bedtime a bit late. She screamed from 10-11 (which really, was the first time she cried all day so not too bad) until finally falling asleep. Not in the crib – sleeping only came when one of us was walking with her and stuck only if we lay down on the bed very quietly and held her for a while. She screamed for a few minutes again at 1 but slept pretty well until 7. Neither Brian nor I got much sleep but that was just first night jitters we think. Tonight we are definitely using the crib – and she’s napping in it right now so it must not be too bad.
