Another thing to babyproof

Will and I thought we had done a decent job babyproofing our house. The exposed outlets were covered, the plants and blind cords were placed out of reach, the doorjam stoppers were in place, and the breakable objects were placed on high shelves. Sounds pretty good, right? We had a baby gate and other cabinet-door gear ready and waiting.

So, once Sophia began to pull on any cabinet knob and I saw her sticking her hand into the VCR (yes, we STILL have one) and pulling all of the DVDs and video games off the shelves we installed the cabinet door blockers on the TV stand and in the bathrooms and kitchen. Phew...problem solved!

Well then she started crawling up the stairs on her own, so we knew it was time to get out the baby gate and install it. Ok - that about does it, right?

WRONG...
