Austin plays so hard...then he passes out hard. He has began to practice his fit throwing already. He is quite good at it. He really only does it when it's time to go to bed. He wants to stay up forever and read books. We read to him every night, but when it starts to get late we tell him it's time for bed...then the fit begins. I know reading is great for him, but he needs sleep to be a healthy child and the last thing I want is for him to get sick! I think he is just afraid he is going to miss something. Once he finally falls asleep he is good until morning, but for about an hour every night this week he has screamed and kicked. I wonder how long this faze will last?! He's not even 2 yet!!!

Just keep at it. Be consistent and read in his room after a nice bath and pj's. Keep reading but maybe start earlier or limit the books and if he knows that there are only 2 books being read each night, that might help. That is, until he decides to pick the longest books!
Then you regulate the number of CHAPTERS you read each night!
And shut the door to his room if he throws a fit. Be consistent. Don't go back in and cuddle, confront or say things. He wants attention and is pushing the button to get it. MUD
