Good advice is hard to come by… let’s see what I can come up with on short notice

Take lots of pictures, as he grows your brain will have a hard time remembering him being so little.

Always have some cold and headache/fever reducer medicine on hand.

This won’t apply to you getting a 2 year old, but don’t give them a pacifier unless you have to.

Let them do the things they enjoy, don’t force trucks as toys because he’s a boy or don’t force dolls if you’ve a girl.

From the moment they’re born, children struggle to become independent individuals. Encourage that, but don’t force it.

I’ll have to think of more later
