Peggy is sleeping better now — and so are we. Last night is the first time she slept through (10pm to 6am) two nights in a row; that makes 3 out of 4.

It still seems to me she cries a lot, but I was not home with Robby and Miriam and thus have no real basis for comparison. Gretchen holds that Peggy is much more regular in her habits, cries every night at the same time, and that the predictability makes it harder to bear.

Sunday evening José Valente came to dinner. He was our first semi-formal guest – i.e. one at dinner. Peggy cried as predicted, but we still all felt comfortable and enjoyed ourselves.
