Fighting Sleep

You know, Elliana has started pulling up. She pulls up everytime she's in bed, even at naptime. So, here's Elliana at naptime. The top picture is her crying.
The bottom picture is her falling asleep in between cries, while continuing to stand.

I've read that you teach children how to lay down so they will, and go to sleep. Well, I tried. The child was stiff and wouldn't allow it. So I went in and laid her down 3 times. After 1 hour of her standing and screaming, I picked her up and she was asleep on my shoulder within a couple of minutes. As soon as you think you got this parenting stuff down, they learn something new and, well, I feel like I'm trying to figure it all out again.
