Will she ever be predictable?

OH, and have I mentioned how Lilli seems to be on a schedule of her own determining now? She usually wakes up around 8am and then she starts to get fussy around 11:30am and wants to take her nap. That means that after 3.5 hours she is so tired she needs another hour to three hours of sleep. Then. You would then expect her to go to bed pretty early. For example, if she wakes up at 2pm, you would expect her to go to sleep at least around 9pm. But no. She now seems capable of staying up happily for ten hours at a time. The day before yesterday she woke up at 1pm and so I tried to put her to bed at 8:30pm even though she didn't seem too tired. I reasoned that I was the adult, and that she SHOULD be tired. BIG MISTAKE. I spent two and half hours trying to get a struggling Lilli to go to sleep and she finally succumbed at 11pm. She probably fought it longer than she would have, except she wanted to prove her point. Typical. So yesterday I decided I would watch for her tired signs before I put her to bed and finally around 9:30 I heard a little fuss and rushed her under the covers and onto the boobie. She did go to sleep but she was awake for eight straight hours! I know that babies start needing fewer naps and can start being awake for longer periods, but I'm not ready!!!

Also, what is TOTALLY UNFAIR, is that Bob has had to work all day for the last three days, usually until 9:30 pm so I have had Lilli ALL DAY LONG, ALL TO MYSELF, and she has been awake nearly THE WHOLE TIME. Where is the justice in the world?
