And on that note, I will add tjhree hings.
One: It is impossible to spoil a baby under 6 months old. Love her and be patient with her no matter how "bratty" she might SEEM to act at times.
Two: we have taken him everywhere. He was on my boat at 16 days old, we have been taking him out and about to dinner parites and we DON'T keep a quiet house. We decided that we would not spend all our time shaping our lives around him, but rather include him into our life. It's worked out great. Once he is asleep, he can sleep through a drumset being thrown down next to him. No tiptoeing around.
Three: Once they get over a year, it's ok for them to stick grass and dirt in their mouth. (not swallow of course), it's GOOD for them to get exposed to germs, don't keep them in a bubble.
