Long Naps... Early Wake Time?

LO used to be a short napper (usually one good nap about 2 hours and a couple 45 minuters). He was waking once at night and up sometime after 7 in the morning.

 Lately he has become a LONG napper (2) 2:30 naps and usually one 30 minuter.  Still getting up once to eat but slowly waking up earlier and earlier in the morning.  This morning it was a stretch to hold him off until 5:00.  We tried a bottle and back to bed but this guy was smiley and awake- as long as he wasn't in the crib :)

Would you try to shorten naps to encourage more night sleep or just roll with it for now?

    Maybe try it one day just to see if it makes any difference?

    This!  When we've let DD sleep from 2-4:30 in the afternoon she is up so early the next day and difficult to go to bed.  If we wake her up by 3:50-4, she sleeps so much better.  DD naps from 10-11:30/12 in the morning and 2-3:45ish in the afternoon.  If she catnaps at night, we only let her sleep about 10 minutes around 6:30pm after she eats.
