Most important thing is identification. You need to be 100% were everybody is at all times before pulling that trigger. If I were you I would go to my daughter's room and check on her. If she is sound asleep, and noises still persist, I would bring her to the master bedroom quickly. Wake the wife up. and quickly give her a heads up. Go back to stairs and see what you can see. If the threat is real, retreat to the safest point (which should be your master bedroom; if it isn't, make it (i.e. safe room). Dial 911 and (depending on what state you live in) give some warning to the BG just to be on the safe side of legal. I think you'll know what to do from there if the BG feels like kicking it up a notch.
