You’d think by the time a woman was shepherding her sixth baby through early toddlerhood, she’d have no more tricks to learn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It never fails to frustrate me that brand-new puller-uppers LOVE to play in the toilet. Keep them out of the toilet and they’ll be digging around in the bathroom trash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The worst thing is, when one is busy in the bathroom, one doesn’t always have a lot of ability to keep a baby’s hands out of inappropriate places.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
