I don't even look tired!

I stayed for Friday drinks at work, so got home around 6:30pm tonight. Ingrid looked pretty shagged, (but lovely all the same) Sophie evidently, didn’t want to sleep today.

Ingrid finally put her down to bed just before I got home after a marathon 4 or 5 hours awake! She continued to grizzle till well after 7:00pm so I went in to re-wrap her put her dummy in – she obviously thought it was party time then because she started giggling and yapping and gave me some monster grins. Obviously I couldn’t just leave her there so I took her back downstairs, where she eyed up Ingrid, then gave her a cheeky little smurk as if to say “I won mummy…ha ha!”

She proceeded to stay up for another hour or so and showed no signs of wanting to sleep at all! (as the photo below shows)
Is this the face of a baby who hasn't slept in 6 hours!
I'm happy to report that Sophie has finally gone to sleep now. I won’t bother trying to wake her for her normal 10pm feed and see if she makes it through the night. Her sleeping habits have changed quite a bit since we started her on evening solids last weekend to be fair, so maybe the good fortune we’ve been experiencing the past couple of months is slowly coming to end…I hope it’s just a glitch!
