I Just Can Seem to Figure Out How to Do It - Nap Schedule with 2 Kiddos

I feel as if I have tried everything with no success. I just can't seem to figure out how to get my 5 month old on a good nap schedule while still attending to the needs of my 2 year old. Granted, my 5 month old isn't sleeping that great as of yet, so that is why I would really like to get her on some sort of schedule, but I just can't seem to figure out how to do it with my 2 year old running around. I feel like I am either neglecting my 5 month old's needs as we run around doing all of the other activities, waking her up in the car...

Bedtime Routine for toddler/Attachment Parenting

My daughter is 22 months and spirited and putting her to sleep has always been a challenge. She still needs to be walked in the Ergo, nursed to sleep or bounced on an exercise ball to fall asleep. We do a snack, pajamas, books and a song and then my husband usually puts her in the Ergo and walks up and down the hall and she falls asleep in 15-20 minutes or so and puts her in her toddler bed.

Feedback About the Ergo Infant Carrier

I'm curious if anyone has used the Ergo Infant Carrier and what you thought of it. My son is almost 6 months old and, of course, loves to be carried all the time. But I've had a brace on my wrist for a month and it's hard to hold him too long without a carrier. He hates the sling and he's way too heavy in the bjorn now. It's killing my back. The Ergo looks like a great product but it's very expensive so I was hoping for some reviews from others who've used it. Any thoughts on infant carriers for 6 - 12 month olds?
