When he woke at 8:30, did you try and get him back to sleep?

I would try and resettle at that time.  The last feed is normally a top off anyway.  You don't want your LO to wake out of habit to eat.

I was having the same issues with my DS, my problem was he was sleeping too much during the day and then was UT at night and fought me tooth and nail to bed.  Now, I cap his naps at 2 hours (if he goes that long) and give him a short CN and make sure all his A times are at least 2:15.  Now I put him to bed and he talks himself to sleep in about 10 minutes.  Its a new baby!! I always had to pat/shsh to get him to sleep. He still wakes once to eat (I am getting ready to phase that out) but other than that sleeps pretty good!!! I cant complain after 5 or 6 NW and EW each night.
