VacationYesterday, I spent a portion of the day baby proofing my house.

Pretty much, all the electrical sockets have a baby proof piece of plastic insert. Many of the kitchen and bathroom floor level cabinets have those baby latches. And some of the drawers have those clamps, as shown in the picture above.

I also purchased two baby gates. One I hooked up already and it works well, the other, I am not too sure about. The other goes at the top of the stairs and it has to be done right. But the way my stairs are, it just doesn't seem this or any will work right. So I need to figure out a different solution, maybe a less optimal solution, but a safe solution.

We also spent money on one of those diaper genie types of cans. I don't like to air my family's dirty laundry, but at a certain age, those "poop" diapers really smell bad, really.

In any event, it is amazing watching kids grow - a lot of fun and joy.
