Cord Monster and Tangle Beast Don't Mix

I think the biggest part of of getting the surround sound system in the house was running the wires under the floor. Thankfully we have a drop ceiling in the basement and pre drilled holes, so that wasn't too bad.

Involving Little Blue in getting everything hooked up was frustrating through, poor guy wanted to help and I needed to keep the cables straight. Since it was a hands off experience for him, a lot of other things is a hands on experience.

The dude can turn on/off the DVD Player, the Wii, the TV, and can gently adjust the volume on the stereo. I have a hard time telling him "no" to things that we use all the time. As long as he treats "Mom and Dads" toys the same we treats his toys, and we all end up doing okay.

Granted, he gets a little over excited when he plays the Wii and has whacked himself in the head during some tennis and baseball (which is hard not to laugh at).
