As a dependant visa holder, you cannot become a main applicant and switch to any other categories within the uk. Your best bet is that your wife switches to some other category like Tier 2 and you and your child apply as her dependants again under that route. If she fails to extend or switch, unfortunately you all have to leave the uk.
