Just so you know, the next lesson is pulling stuff off the counter or table onto his head or foot.
From this point on, nothing on the edge of anything is safe.

He seems to do these things less now that he is 35? But seems to alway be beaten a little from loading hogs in trucks?

Yep your days of bliss and just holding and enjoying your son are over. Now it is time to go to work, wait until he starts crawling and then walking you and your wife will be quite busy. You all will enjoy nap time or bed time. Have fun!
Little monster is already crawling. We have had to go through the moving and barricading anything he shouldn't get into. He is learning that playing with cords equals getting popped on the butt. But he hasn't begun to get into stuff yet.

I was about 10 when my youngest sister was born, so I remember a number of things about her childhood quite well. One afternoon, sometime after she had learned to pull to her feet, she was having a crying fit. I remember Mom being totally exasperated with this non-stop crying child, so she ended up putting her in her crib, which was on a concrete floor. So, the entire family is suffering through this ceaseless "WWaaaaHHH" when all of a sudden there was a loud "Plop!" and several seconds of silence. My first thought was that Dad had had enough and had "Given her something to cry about", but then the wailing started again and I saw Mom AND Dad go racing by. She had managed to pull up over the edge of the crib, flipped over, landed on her butt, so no harm done, and it startled her into complete silence!Heath is just starting to pull up and stand but has shown no interest in climbing. Well today he was playing in his crib - the side of which is about forehead high on him - and the wife and I were doing other things around the house. And we heard a terrible thump followed by a blood curdling scream. A mad sprint into his room found him on the floor under his crib. NO injuries, but it is time to lower his mattress. Little monster nearly gave me a heart attack.
None of my 4 have done anything like that, so I'm quite happy!

My son did the same thing.We already had the crib down the whole way and he wasn't even 2 yet.So needless to say he went from the crib to the toddler bed.

My oldest girl was one big band aid for a couple of years. This is the first one that has taken to free falling from their crib though.
Wait until the Dr. at the ER starts asking you questions and the ladies at the market give you and Lil' Fauntlroy funny looks.

I just tell them that little boys are supposed to be dirty and bruised. Today he was crawling around the floor in the office of a friends garage. Little monster was filthy but happy.

I am so glad to see others think the same way.. I know in most of the pictures carved outta stone from my youth that i was almost always dirty.. head to toe dirty... hmm it seems nothing has changed either.....
