Sleep...Where art thou?

So i have trying to get Rocco on a consistent sleep schedule, but it has been tough. Before he would go to bed pretty late and get up late...like 10 or even 11am! It was awesome for someone like me who LOVES to sleep, but for real life it does not work at all. So with the advice of many lovely mothers, i've been putting Rocco to bed between 7-7:30. At first he cried so much, and it broke my heart, but eventually he would fall asleep. Then he would wake up around 4 am and then cry again for another hour, fall asleep, then wake up at 7am. Not fun for Peter, myself and i'm sure for Rocco. His naps during the day were all messed up and it just sucked big time. Slowly but surely though, it has been going really well! Sometimes his naps will be too short and he'll just be completely grumpy and whiney and it makes me crazy!!! But he will go to bed on time, and sleep through the night, so that makes it a little better! He is getting this nasty habbit of rolling over to his tummy and not being able to roll back. What a kid!! He's lucky he's so cute! I think i got this sleep schedule almost figured out. The joys of parenting! I wouldn't trade it for the world!
