Curses to daylight savings time

My son could care less what time it is or if time changes with the seasons. His life is controlled by routine. The only time he tells is by what comes next in his day. After dinner comes clean up time, then bath time, then we read two books while we drink our bedtime milk. Along with some humming and rocking and blankie and plug then he is laid down to sleep for 10 hours or so we hope. Unfortunately though, you throw in a "spring forward" in adult time and whammo, you have a kid that despite routine is confused why he doesn't feel tired and the sun is still shining underneath the darkening shades in his room. His normal bedtime is 7PM and after several attempts by both of us to calm him down to sleep at 8PM on the nose (his usual 7PM in baby time) he finally pushes away towards his bed and puts himself off to sleep.
