My Soph is a solid sleeper! You can actually tell she's getting tired around 7:30 or 8:00 P.M. She starts moving a little slower.  The first time I saw her getting sleepy I thought there was something wrong with her LOL I didn't know she just wanted a nap! I am actually able to put her in her crate around 7:30 or 8:00 P.M. after she has already fallen asleep.  I can then get stuf done around the house, hang out with the hubby and kids.  Then, when I get ready to go to bed I get her out of her crate, wake her up with kisses and put her in her pen with pee pad.  She goes pee, we cuddle for a bit then back into her crate, and she lets me sleep through the night until I get her up and give her breakfast.  I was so tired when she would get me up every night at like 3 or 4. When I discovered I could wake her up to go pee, then put her back I was soooo excited.  Like today, (I sound like I am talking about a real kid) she did not nap so whe was out at like 6:30. I don't want her in bed with my husband and I.  I am also afraid I will squish her.  When I first get her up in the morning though we cuddle in bed before she gets breakfast. The love of a Yorkie
