I live in Las Vegas, I typically have the temp at 73 at night, 76 during the day, and 79 when Im out and about.... Is this better ( money wise) then typically keeping it at 75....
Answer
I used to work for a utility company in Arizona, which was a partner in major studies about AC efficiency and power consumption.
It's generally most energy efficient to change the setting only if you want it to stay at that setting for six hours or more. A programmable thermostat can really help. Allow an hour for the AC to cool the house to the desired temperature.
Maintaining an overnight temperature of 73 is really upping your power consumption needlessly, though. You might find that closing off the bedrooms and running fans, moving around the air you cooled to 76, keeps you just as comfortable.

Answer
The book What to Expect the First Year says room temperature for baby should be between 68 & 72 degrees. My house is odd. I set my thermostat at 72 my bedroom gets to 74 at night while my baby's room would get down to 64. We had to get a cool tough ceramic heater for her room to run at night and keep it warmer in there. You don't want it too hot b/c it increases the chances of SIDS, but too cold and baby will get a cold. Get a cool touch heater with it's own thermostat on it so you can set his room where it needs to be. A 5 month old should not be sleeping with blankets due to suffocation hazard. Dress him warmly and get the heater. Best solution.
