we made it through night 1. Wahoo. Starting on crate training today. I had her crate in her ex pen with the door off, and she slept most of the night there. Today, I left her to go grocery shopping. She was quiet and relaxed when I left, and in the exact same spot when I came home. She has done all of her eliminating outside today, which is great. We just had a stroll around the block and she is now in her crate (in her ex pen) with the door on. I simply moved her there when she was getting sleepy, and she had no complaints. It's been about 20 minutes and not a peep.
Thank you everyone for your comments!

Zoey is such a cutie pie. My Zoe says Hi Zoey and says not to cry.

Night number 2 was a big success. At bedtime I put Zoey in her crate and took her to my room. She slept beside my bed without a peep from about 11 pm until 450. I took her out to pee, and put her back in her crate. She chewed her teething bone quietly, and fell back asleep until 730. yay

She has been whining a little and going to the front door when she needs to potty, and I've been letting her out at least every couple of hours. It's pretty chilly in the mornings still, so I'm off to buy her a coat.
hava great day everyone!
