Child Proofing our Home!
Ok, so I thought we had our home baby/child proofed, ok, honestly I knew it was only semi child proofed, but it's not even close! I think to child proof our home we need to put everything at least 5 feet off the floor, make sure all doors are shut, all cabinets are shut & locked & the stairs are fully blocked off!! These kids can get EVERYWHERE & into EVERYTHING!! It's a bit harder because we are moving so I don't want to buy a stair gate (so I try to make shift something & make it work) or cabinet locks because I don't know what kind we will need at our new home.
Here is how my morning went....... got the kids up to eat their bottles, Brooklen wasn't interested so I let her go play while Austen finished & Caitlen partially finished (once Caitlen saw the other 2 playing, she was done). While I held Brooklen to finish her bottle, Caitlen made it 1/2 up the stairs, I did have them blocked, but apparently not good enough (she was able to get her little buns thru!). So, I got Caitlen off the stairs, then I changed everyone's pants, after I was done changing Brooklen I let her play. While I was changing Caitlen & Austen, Brooklen decided she did want her bottle & spilt most of it on herself. Meanwhile, Austen is finding anything on the floor to eat, try to chew & choke on and empty all my cupboards...... OH MY GOSH.... also while I was getting Austen out of the kitchen the girls destroyed the playroom in just a matter of seconds! Then they all proceed to play with the furniture sliders (those awesome discs so helpful when moving furniture) why do they need toys when they have tupperware, furniture discs & everything off the changing table to play with? These wonderful, beautiful children are just getting into everything... I need eyes in the back of my head (I thought you got those when you became a mom?) & I need more arms! HELP!! Yes, help is on his way.... D.J. will be home for the weekend to help with everything..... watch, snag, pick up, chase after, feed, change & put to bed!
Caitlen climbing the stairs- she is a quick little thing!!

The girls playing in the 4 season's room, which has become the playroom.
First 3 pics are of Brooklen playing with furniture discs, then the last one is Caitlen playing with the discs that I believe she just stole from Austen!
