Child Proofing In Our Future?

Perhaps one of the good things about having a baby with Down syndrome {I say one because there really are a lot more;)} is that since it takes them a little longer to do things, you don't have to worry about them getting into stuff, as quickly as other children and you kinda get used to that. Like, I can plop Bennett down on the floor and unless he decides to have a rolling fest, I'm pretty sure he'll be in the same general area if I step away for just a minute.

Well, now that he can sit himself up, things that used to be out of reach while laying down are suddenly at perfect trouble making height....

Obviously I caught him before he decided to try this new thing out. He was just staring at it and you could tell he really wanted to touch it. And just look at this little face...

Pure trouble.

"You just wait mommy, remember...I'm a little boy and little boys are very curious!"

{for the record I have no idea what is all over his onesie- we're working on self-feeding if that tells you anything and I think more food gets on his clothes than in his mouth;)}
