Oh, this brings back memories of DS4's 1-2yo year. NOT good memories!
At least he didn't go out. (Thank goodness for small favors!) But the dangers he found in our CHILDPROOFED house absolutely blew my mind!
He once pulled fiberglass insulation out of the wall by reaching up into a tiny crevice between the fireplace stove-thingy and the wall while I was in the bathroom for 2 minutes. He walked around with it in his hand for a while before I figured out what it was. Yikes!
Who does that? How could he even figure out to get to it in that amount of time? <shaking head> I still can't believe it.
And then there was the time he locked me out of my bedroom, stuck his hand in the toilet so it was wet to the elbow, and grabbed a penny. By the time I got the door open, he was literally reaching for an outlet with his wet hand while putting the penny to his mouth! He looked back over his shoulder at me with a "Oh, no! You caught me!" look on his face. Argh!
I always say that if only I hadn't locked up the drain cleaner, he'd have hit the trifecta of ways to kill himself!
I know it sounds too crazy to be true. If I hadn't seen it myself, frankly, I wouldn't believe it!
And, yes, he's my OE kid...
