1 year old baby boy- help with eating & sleep? I'm going crazy!?

My son just turned one on sept 9th. He weights abt 23 pounds. His appetite is fair. I would like him to gain a bit more weight. He still currently on Simalic advance formula. He refuses to take whole milk. I've tried everything. To Carnation instant breakfast to even putting a bit of Quick in his bottle. ( i know it's bad, but i'm desperate). Nothing works!! I'm going crazy!! Can anyone help me with this? Also what types of food can i give him to gain some weight? He eats eggs with cheese in the morning, lunch either rice & beans, graduate meals ( sometimes), mash potatoes, yams, and i also still give him the veg's & fruits from the jar. He won't eat fresh fruits because he has this this with texture. If he doesn't like the way it feels, he wont touch it. Lol. & for dinner he'll get more or less the same as lunch. I just add chicken & he also eats a yogurt or two during the day. Please help! And to top things off, he STILL and has NEVER slept through the night. He wakes up at least 3 times a night for a bottle. I haven't sleep[t in god knows how long. He take a pacifier but he spits it out at night when he wants milk. Any advice????
