Does your husband pick him up and get caught up over there talking, etc. so they get home late and throw the routine off? I guess I'm not sure why being there vs. your house is causing the sleep issue, but is there something you/your husband can try at home to calm him down and get some sort of nightly routine that would transition him better from the day at grandmas? I would have LOVED the peace in knowing my mother or MIL was caring for my babies while I was working...unfortunately neither were still living at that point but if anything, I wouldn't put demands on where they watched my kids.
I plan is to have my mom contiune watching him three days a week and hire someone for two days a week. My husband does pick him up but normally ends doing something for them and is there until late. Like today for instance when I dropped my son off he cried bloody murder because I was leaving him because he doesn't either like it at their house or something else but I can't figure out what. What is worse is that when my in-laws put down the way I parent and dispile my son my husband doesn't even stand up for me.
