One thing that got me, I had my first in '85 and my last in '94. From first to last, they kept changing 'rules'. Lay the baby on its' stomach, no, lay the baby on its' side.

So on and so forth. I guess what I'm saying, there is a lot of information out there that can change or has already changed. This baby is lucky as it has a lot of people around who care about him/her already, AND, that its' parents are pretty darn smart.

And, according to the current rules, we should all have died in infancy!

Like I said, they're harder to break than they look.

Just remember if you're bathing the baby in the sink - unplug all the nearby appliances so you don't electrocute the baby when he or she randomly grabs hold of a cord and yanks (like my Mom did to me.)

Luckily, we lived almost across the street from a hospital. As Mom tells me, when she returned, the front door was wide open and the water in the sink was still running.

(I wasn't actually killed during the electrocution - I know you were wondering how it ended).

Also, don't leave hot irons ironing boards when baby is crawling and trying to pull up on things.

And don't leave baby aspirin laying around where your child might think they are candy and eat the bottle. (not that they give kids aspirin anymore or that they don't have child proof caps nowadays.)

Sheesh - looking back - it's amazing she didn't kill me!

Oh and NEVER tell a toddler that their poop looks just like a brownie. Trust me.

Also, never prevent your child from ever coming to any harm. 'Cause then they'll grow up to be whiny little pains in the butt.

LOL - my son used to really love him some fruit loops. One day he over indulged and his poop was green and blue! This was about the time he was potty training and I made a comment about the colorful poop looking like gum balls. For weeks we had to name what his poop looked like.

Banana poop.
Blueberry poop.
I don't remember them all - must have really tried to block that out.

Really - your poop looks like poop son.
