well we have had some good days and some bad days, but I think we are moving in right direction. surprisingly, DS is doing much better than DD. if I can leave DD in the lounge, DS will happily kiss her and DH and wave goodbye and then walk down to the bedroom. we read 2 to 3 books and on a good night he will fall asleep in under half an hour.

if dd comes down, or the planets are out of alignment then it takes way longer, or I give up after more than an hour.

dd is bit trickier,(I'm not tired or sleepy), but somedays is less combative at bedtime. still working on best method for when I am solo
