on how to convince a 9 month old that he really needs to go to sleep?

Am keeping my grandson and we both have to be up and on the road by 6:30. His 'dida' is in hospital due to a work-related injury.

Oops...forgot to mention that mommy and daddy have spoiled him just a little and he thinks he has to sleep with someone. I 'm trying to put him down in the play-yard. Shouldn't be long now.

Barney aint the prob right now. Its the dog, the ball, the glow-worm and the steering wheel. They all play music. One at a time I can deal with but...

I was just going to say.sleep with the poor little guy....

they only grow up and u miss up..

and like u said parents already spoiled him..

my 1 son slept with me til he was 18 months...actually would wake in the night....all because I rocked and sang to him til he fell asleep when he was an infant..

he is a marine noww...:wink:

my youngest would come to my bed til he was 7....

he also is independent..and going to college for criminal justice..

so don't fret....sleep with him....:heart:
