Nah, we just pretty much let him dictate the schedule for the most part. After a couple months of going to bed late (midnight or later), I decided we needed to do something to move his bedtime to an earlier time b/c I needed sleep badly. We started to introduce a bedtime routine (bath, bottle/nurse, bed) and gradually moved his bedtime up by 10-20 minutes each day until he was down for the night between 7-7:30 and we've kept it there since then. On days he doesn't nap well we'll put him down a bit earlier but so far haven't kept him up later than ~7:45 b/c I'm afraid of messing with his schedule and paying for it later...
