H is quite good at brushing his teeth. We have a set of those pigeon baby brushes with the guard on them so he can't stick the brush too far down his throat.

I have given it too him at most nappy changes since he was about 5 months old. It amusing him and I usually sing the 'brush your teeth' song at the same time. It started with a soft rubber type head then we changed to a harded rubber with ridgers on it and now he uses the one with a soft brush atached. No paste normally.

Having said that, whenever he sees me brushing my teeth he usually comes over and opens his mouth so I get a normal toothbrush with a small amount of paste and he loves it. He's such a copy cat.

Yes H is into everything as well. He knows the tupperware cupboard is ok and the rest are not. He loved the dishwasher, scrambles over to it once it's open and rubs the left over water everywhere. Nice..... We usually do the distraction thing, sometimes it works and other times not. He loves making a beeline for our stairs. He's up them so fast it's scary.

He is walking a bit more each day, still crawling mostly but he's getting there.

We have another bloody open house inspection today, Im sick of cleaning this 3 story (5 bedroom) home from top to bottom, it's all I do. Can't wait for the auction to be over - 18th Nov is the date.
