1- the word "No"
2- the baby proofing isle at Babies R Us
Man was I wrong. I don't even know how to protect my little one some days anymore except to follow behind him all day. He will do great for about a week and then all in one day he will be half pulling plugs out and reaching to touch them. While I recover from my minor heart attack of that event, I turn around to find him on the table!!! Today is seems every time I turn my back he is on the table. I don't know how he does it so fast!
I don't know what to do with the dishwasher? If we lock it closed he runs it all the time and if we leave it unlocked, well the picture speaks for itself. We tried some "baby proof locks" but it seems Tristan had already read the manual on those and had it undone in less than 15 seconds. I keep waiting for this stage to pass, but I don't think it ends until they leave the house. It just changes what you are proofing. First it's crib rails and electrical sockets, then it's matches and scissors. The final stage before leaving the nest is their bedroom window, your liquor cabinet and your keys. I'm just going to hide it all now so I don't have to worry about it again! Now if I can just figure out how to "Tristan Proof" my dinning room table...
We tie all the legs of the table together with his jump rope... he gets furious, and of course then we use the table a lot less. He thinks its hilarious to get on the table. Us... not so much. And we have the same issues with the dishwasher. Fun times. We are right there with you.
ReplyDeleteOh no! Luckily our dishwasher had a childproof setting so they can push all the buttons they want and nothing happens. The table... that's a tougher one.
ReplyDeleteYou gotta get a video of him saying "blast off" and post that now too!!!!
