Florence as a fab routine now, I basically just got her used to the idea that day and night were different. She generally falls asleep around 8-9pm and then around 10:30 I don't wake her - I just put the bottle in her mouth, she usually takes around 2 OZ and then I swaddle her with a sheet and put her down. I only swaddle at night so she knows the difference and then she sleeps to around 6-7 am.
During the day she kips on and off but generally stays awake. She won't sleep at all after 3:30 pm till bedtime which I'm not to fussed about because she sleeps so well and I just stack her with feeds during that time lol She does get cranky around 6PM though so you end up singing and making funny noises to keep her entertained for around 2 hours.

Asha was 12 wks last thurs and think I am nearly there with the routine! I give her a morning bottle at 7am, she then goes back to sleep until about 9.30am. Afther that I give her a bottle at 11am, 3pm (a nap somewhere in the afternoon but it differs from day to day!She then has her bath at 6.30pm and night time bottle at 7pm. Touch wood she is sleeping from around 8pm until 7am the next morning!! I have been told I am quite lucky!! We did have a bad few week from about 5 -9 weeks but apart from that I cant complain!

Jayden is 10 vweeks old and has had a regular routine sence about 5 weeks
At the minute he has 6oz hungrier baby milk at 7.30am .... 10.30am .... 1-1.30ish ...and 5pm ... he then has an 8oz bottle at around 9pm and is in bed for 10pm and sleeps through until about 7.15am 
Same routine also worked for DD (she's 4 now) bedtime got earlier and earlier when I started weaning at 16 weeks until she was going to bed 7pm-7am (and still is) i'm hoping the same will work with Jayden
