I usually get up at 6 and get ready for work. I then give Jovi her bottle. If I'm lucky she sleeps through it and I put her back in bed. DH tells me she will usually sleep until at least 8 most mornings but lately she won't go back to sleep until I get home at lunch (around 12), or will just have a 10 minute nap (I think because I was home for a month recently so now she's rebelling a bit against DH and wants her mummy).
If DH is lucky, she'll sleep for 1/2 to 1 hour then up again ... usually until I get home again at 4:30 then I'll play with her, down for a nap for around 40 minutes ... up, bottle, tea, bath, play then down anywhere between 8 & 9:30. I give her another bottle when I go to bed, usually around 11 but she again sleeps through it.
Aside from some odd "night terrors' as i like to call them (she just starts screaming but will usually stop once i put the dummy in) she'll sleep through the night (mind you since DH had a back op a couple of months ago, she now insists on getting in our bed around 4am until i get up ... little bugger!)
I just think as they get older they want to know whats going on at all times and think they'll miss out (Jovi is an aweful busy body ... can't take her anywhere! lol)
