Bedtime a Fight with 2 1/2 Yrs.

It seems to be getting worse…..we have been working on getting her to bed earlier for the past 3 or 4 weeks (after reading for my younger son sleep needs, hours needed, sleep schedules etc.) we start at 8ish but she still fights it until finally 10pm she falls asleep. I have created a routine of PJ’s, 2 books and prayers to prep her for bed but she gets up several times before finally staying down and going to sleep. You would think that going to sleep at 10pm would make her sleep later but still, 8AM she is up. My concern is not...

Do You Work Around Babies Schedule or Do You Make the Baby Adust to Yours.??

I have a two year old and an 8 month old. Many days we do not leave the house as it is always someones nap time. My 2 year old will only sleep in her bed... my 8 month old will sleep in the car. However I dont think a 20 minute nap in a car is good quality sleep. A friend told me that she just takes her kids wherever she is going regardless of the time of day and if it is naptime.. The kids have to adjust to moms life and schedule.. I have just found that dragging tired kids all over town is just a recipe for disaster. I think sleep...

Sleeping Arrangements When Traveling

Our little girl just turned 3 and we are going on vacation with her in a couple weeks. Previously when we travelled she slept in her pack n play, but now she is much too big and is accustomed to sleeping in a "big girl bed". She has never been too good with the co sleeping arrangement as she finds it too distracting to have us so close and never stops flopping around and asking questions. We will be staying in a rental house during our trip. Has anyone used an air mattress or sleeping bag in this scenario or what do you recommend? Thanks...
