Child Proof your Home
One can only do so much when it comes to child-proofing a house. I have even already given up and accepted that some of my things eventually will get destroyed. I've observed that a child is always very good at finding things that one has overlooked. What I have forgotten to put away, he destroys, plays with and/or eats.
As many toys as he may have, nothing beats playing with what you are not supposed to play with. As an adult, I can understand that. As parents, all we can do is try to keep an eye on our son and everything that he may be attracted to all the time.
