Sorry, but that doesn't really sound like a regular routine to me.
Get him up whenever you get up or his siblings get up. Make it a fixed
time, like 7 or 8a.m. or something and put him to bed at a set time,
too, like 8p.m. That gives him about 12 hours to sleep in, which means
even if he doesn't fall asleep right away he should get enough sleep.
Be super rigid for a while (I'd say 2 weeks) no exceptions except for
emergencies and a weekend is not an emergency, then see if it has
improved any.
Try the relaxation techniques, but if he sleeps in a lot that means he
will be awake longer and that's a cycle you need to break, if it bothers
you...
