How do you get this little boy to SLEEP????

These two pictures were taken one night - - - well after 11:00 p.m., when we came upstairs to find our very adventuresome 2-year-old all dressed up and roaming all the rooms of the second floor of our home - EXCEPT for his own bedroom! Note that this was THREE (yes 3!!!) hours after we "put him to bed." This is the little boy who used to go to bed the minute you laid him in his crib and who would sleep to 11:00 a.m. (or even later if you let him) each day - all the way until he was two! Once he moved out of the baby bed, however, all bets were off, and we have struggled in getting this little guy to go to sleep. (At this point, we've even considered calling in Jo from "Super Nanny"!)

We loved the hat and crocs over the footie pajama look!
Just look at that little impish face!
A little after midnight that night, we FINALLY got the little guy to bed. The picture below shows Ryan the following day after church - just conked out on the couch next to Dad - who was up WITH the little one LATE into the night! Poor Steve!

Two really tired guys!

Have you tried warm milk or just a little sleepy time tea b/f bed? Hope he sleeps soon!
