But anyway,this boy of mine has been making me worried as he is crawling to places all over the house, touching things like the broom, opening up drawers etc. There was once he almost crushed his fingers as he opened the drawer and pushed it hard to close it up and thank God Vicky removed his fingers just a millisecond before the drawer closed as it was quite fast. It was scary how close he was to getting himself hurt right before my eyes. Sigh..
Here's Caleb in the kitchen which I must soon ban him from entering. Too dangerous...
I remember reading a newspaper article about a boy, just few days before he turned one year old who was drowned because he crawled all the way to the toilet and started sticking his head into a pail and got drowned because there was water in it. I can really imagine Caleb doing that as he is so active and inquisitive. It must be devastating for his parents who have brought him up to almost one year old...and this had to happen just few days before. Sigh...my heart hurts when I read such articles.
Anyway, in whatever case, I must treasure the present and just give thanks that I still have him.

you can baby proof the house. there are locks that secure drawers and cupboards to prevent them from opening.
my daughter slammed the drawer on her fingers twice before and cried for a long while.must be painful as i can see a red line across the fingers =(
I used to install a gate at my kitchen to prevent my children from crawling in. As for those baby-safe locks for drawers, they don't really work, quite flimsy and spoils easily.
