Box the Toddler Books...

We've made the discovery that the "What to Expect" series (sub-titled, "101 Ways Your Baby Could Die This Month") ends at the 35th month. A's metamorphosis from a toddler to a pre-schooler means the last few months have been child-rearing literature free.   While this has been somewhat freeing, I'm finding that it was nice to know "what to expect."

So... It's off to the library to read:
