I tried to let Griffin cry it out for his nap today. He screamed for a good 40 minutes or so. I though "surely he will give up and go to sleep any second now!". Didn't happen because I caved. Why am I so soft with him? Why is he so strong willed? My little Leo is showing me who's boss. And now I'm holding him with his face buried in my armpit. Sign. What am I gonna do with this boy?

you're going to love him.
Leos are strongwilled,stubborn people.
I know b/c there are 3 in my house ( including me).
He is just a precious boy!
FERBERIZE HIM!!!
Do you watch Modern Family?? This past week was a hysterical episode about just this...
Good luck.
Just love him and enjoy...one day he will not want to be held and may not want anything to do with you. He will only be a baby once. Just SPOIL him!!
I agree. Adrien refuses to fall asleep with me. He wants his crib, and that's that.
However, he was just as stubborn. Still does it. It can take anywhere from 5 minutes, to 45 minutes to get him to sleep. Except at night and the morning nap. His afternoon nap is hell. The others, he's easy.
Just keep trying. He will eventually do it. You're great. you know you are:)
Stand your ground when you want to define values. Else, relent. That gives you more power when you stand your ground. Have you watched the martial arts? They give in the grounds they don't want to hold:-) Its not being able to have our way with kids. Its about loving them and giving in.
Good mom i love you more !
