I noticed that they have those theft deterrent gateway things before you could use the restroom. Smart. That should alleviate that whole "bathroom book" issue (ala George Costanza).
Now I just need to find time to read the book in order to come up with a plan. Of course it may mean less sleep in the interim but atleast it will give me hope. Sometimes that's all a tired mommy needs.

I hope the books help!
The fact that people really do bring books into the restroom at B&N or Borders boggles my mind! LOL
I hope you can glean some info from the books for Master Keegan!
We have the No-Cry Sleep Solution - the original one. Didn't know there was one for toddlers coming out! I wonder if one for almost-5 year olds is in the works...
We've got Xander in one of these, and he's sleeping...er...like a baby. We'll see how he does long term :)
