What Would You Do?



What would you do if your toddler discovered how to open up the kitchen cabinets?
You'd baby-proof.
Check.

What would you do if your toddler figured out how to get into the dishwasher?
You'd gate OFF the kitchen.
Check.

What would you do if your toddler learned how to open up the baby-proof latches?
And...
What would you do if your toddler was smart enough to shimmy his way UNDER the locked gate?

This MAY be what you'd find:



I was super busy this morning with my 3 week old, who now has a mild case of colic, when I realized my almost 14 month old was way too quiet.  I came out of the bedroom to see Daniel in the "kitchen/office" area.  If that's not enough, considering he had to hold up the gate, crawl under it, and not get stuck in the process, I was pretty S-H-O-C-K-E-D to find that he'd pulled out my desk chair, gotten up in it to climb onto my desk, pull out my drawer of ribbon, and have T-W-O pairs of open scissors in his hands!

Wow.  So, what did I do?

I pulled out my camera, of course, because I knew no one would believe me.
