best books 4 month old baby image

Right now my little 6 month old baby is taking 3-4 naps a day and going to bed at around 11:00pm-8:00am at night time.. I would really like to get his naps down to two longer naps in the morning and in the afternoon.. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to do this?
Answer
First I would start by putting him/her to bed earlier, and set a routine. My son is 7 months, and this is how his day goes. (most days)
7:30-wake up, get diaper changed, play in bed with me and daddy
8:00-eat breakfast
8:30-10:30 play (tummy time down on the floor, or in his saucer, or johnny jumper)
10:30- go in his room read a book
10:45-12:30- nap
12:30 lunch
1:00-3:00 he plays in his high chair and johnny jumper (depending on what room I'm in) while I get house work done. And while I am talking to him.
3:00-4:00 he takes a short nap on the sofa
4:00-5:30 he plays with his brothers and sister, or daddy while I make dinner.
5:30 we eat dinner
6:30 he gets a bath
7:00 cuddle time with some one (we always fight over who gets to do this part)
8:00 bed time
It may take a week or two to get a routine down but do what ever works best for you. Change things slowly, and he will adjust to your schedule that you make for him. Good Luck

What breed of dog is good with small children (infants)?

My wife and I are looking to add another member to our family by way of a dog. We've been doing some research online as well as in books, but I thought I would get some opinions from others on yahoo answers. We currently have a 4 1/2 month old baby girl and are most concerned about her safety when it comes to picking out a dog. We are looking for a medium to larger breed of dog. Any advice on what breeds might be a wise and safe choice?
Answer
Many breeds work well with children, but always remember: There are good dogs and bad dogs in every breed. It's important to know that individual dogs within breeds can demonstrate their own, unique personality traits. No matter what breed you choose, you shouldn't leave dogs and young children together unsupervised â for the safety of both.
Below is a list of the top 20.
Golden Retrevier:The golden retreiver is an excellent choice for families that enjoy lots of outdoor activities. Though originally developed to help hunt birds, the golden rapidly proved himself as a loyal and devoted family member.
Pembroke Welsh corgi. At about 25 pounds, the Pembroke Welsh corgi is a popular pet. This stocky short tailed breed needs daily exercise and loves romping with the kids. They are best with older kids (over 6 or 7 years) as some dogs can be bossy and possessive.
West Highland white terrier. This small white terrier is playful and loveable but does require some exercise to keep him happy. The Westie is a good watch dog and faithful friend that needs some grooming to keep his coat mat and tangle free. The Westie can be an excellent dog for older children. They tend not to be tolerant of children's accidental mistreatments. They are often not recommended for households with children under the age of ten.
Irish setter. This beautiful red dog was originally developed to help with hunting but early on, the breed showed his natural aptitude as a companion. Loved by many and always eager to please, the Irish setter is a part of many families.
Schnauzer. The schnauzer is a wonderful family pet. Eager to please and to keep the family safe, this breed usually requires regular grooming and daily exercise. This breed thrives on human companionship and is available in three different sizes.
Labrador retriever. The lab is a popular choice for active families, especially those that enjoy water sports. The labrador seems to have boundless energy to keep up with the kids as well as natural protective instincts. Though originally developed to help hunt birds, the lab is also a loyal and devoted family member.
Poodle. The poodle is an intelligent and friendly dog that craves human companionship. Happiest when allowed to run and play, the poodle is well known for being low shed, and comes in three different sizes to suit any taste.
Bichon frise. This white fluff ball is a happy-go-lucky dog. Faithful and obedient, the bichon is a wonderful addition to any home. The bichon does require regular grooming to keep his coat looking great but loves to investigate and participate in anything.
Airedale. A sturdy dog, the airedale takes his job as a family friend and protector seriously. Willing to join in the fun anytime, the airedale always keeps a watchful eye out for any potential dangers.
Basset hound. With his sad droopy eyes, you may think the basset is a lazy hound. But, as soon as kids are around, this dog will jump right in and keep up with the best of them.
Beagle. The beagle may be an active breed but he fits in well with very active families. Needing a good place to sleep and plenty of games to play, this breed can easily join any family.
Shih tzu. Originally bred as a companion animal for royalty, the shih tzu still enjoys a life a luxury. Not too proud to get down and dirty with the kids, this dog loves nothing better than sharing time with people, even if that means getting dressed up for a tea party.
Boxer. The boxer may look a bit intimidating but he is actually a sweet and friendly dog. A natural guardian, the boxer prefers to spend his time with people than with other canines. Though this breed can do well in quiet homes, he can also thrive in busy active families.
Cairn terrier. Despite their small size, the cairn terrier is a tough little dog. This breed does well in any living environment as long as there are people around. As a terrier, this breed does need exercise and a romp in the park or running with the neighborhood kids suits him just fine.
Collie. Forever connected to "Lassie", the collie is considered by many to be one of the best family pets. Intelligent yet patient, the collie is loved by families all over the world.
Boston terrier. The Boston is a small black and white terrier that loves to make you laugh. After brief periods of activity, the Boston loves to curl up on the sofa while you read a good book. Obedient and loyal, the Boston is a good watch dog and loyal family pet, especially for the not so active families.
Newfoundland. This gentle giant may drool a little too much for some people but has made a wonderful big protective teddy bear for many lucky children. Because of his size, families with very young children may want to wait a few years but those families who enjoy life near water can rest easy with this dog near by.
Pomeranian. This little fluffball looks just like a tiny fox. Weighing around 5 pounds, the Pom is an adorable breed that
