Partner is a piss take sometimes

My partner is generally great, he's a great dad works hard to provide for us, just helps with childcare and housework without being asked and does do a lot. But tonight he's annoyed me. It's currently 3:30am I co-sleep with our baby and our 2 year old has woken up in the next room and is running about riot. I asked him to go and get her a bottle which he did but he just came in and went back to sleep when she's still running around and shouting. I woke him up and said you can't just let her do that it's 3am and he was like there's nothing dangerous in her room she's fine...

sorry? You can't just leave her to fend for herself all night while we go back to sleep. I said this too him and said it was a bit out of order of him to just go back to sleep and assume I'm staying awake with her, when I'm already taking care of the baby. I can't just leave her to go and be with the 2 year old. But now that is what ill be doing because low and behold he's now snoring. Imagine I just went back to sleep too. She's just left to her own devices all night running around in the dark.

it's just assumed I've always got it, I always have to be responsible and he can just sleep because he knows I wouldn't do that. It's seriously annoying.

I always say sun-Thursday night if someone's getting no sleep it's me because he needs to be rested for work, but it's Friday night. Just once it would be nice for him to think about the fact I might be knackered too
