10.5 Stang...magic trick for ya. Move bedtime back by 30 mins. Been there, done that and it worked like a charm! Sometimes they just get so freakin tired they can't go to sleep.

at his age stop the naps during the day and put him to bed earlier, that should do it.

This was my kids ... all of them. So I am feeling pretty special right now. I cannot imagine what it would have been like if we had had to deal with a squabble every night ... blah ...

Once we got past that colicky stage at 6 to 8 months they all three slept pretty much the whole night. It was funny because when the time would change in the fall, the sun would go down at 6 and they would start getting their stuff ready for bed ... Our entire lives revolved around the street light outside ... If the street light was on it was time to get inside, get dinner and get ready for bedtime ...

Don't lt the DHS see that. They will think the worst. Can you imagine the nerve of those people?

Put them in one of those little kid harnesses and run them for a few miles on a bicycle, if that doesn't work I would ask them if that rag smells like chloroform.

My wife has the hardest time putting my daughter down just about every night. Last Night she went to bed at 0400 and got up around noon today. Some days it's easy and sometimes it's not.
