How do i get my little girl to stop fighting sleep?

I have twins boy and girl which is almost 1yrs old and the girl fights sleep so bad, its this huge battle everynight. ITs hard to get twins to go to bed when u have two fighting it they both keep trying to sit up or rollover and with just being me sometimes cuz dad gets home to late, i cant hold them both down and if i put them in the swing they just play and grab the bars to stop the swing so if anyone has twins or any advise plz advise me. And yes i tried the cry out method and with twins thats to hard one just wakes the other and then i have both of them playing all over again.
