Parker-Proofing Our House

Sooooo...Parker is getting REALLY good at rolling over and moving around a bit. He used to be just a cute little lump that stayed in one spot but now he's doing little baby push-ups and trying really hard to crawl. If we turn our head for two seconds he flips himself over and giggles a bit. Since he has Batman-esque physical prowess, we should probably baby-proof our house a bit. April and I keep talking about it and kind of laughing because our house is pretty much anti-baby right now. I took a quick survey and here's what I think needs to change:

1. No more bear traps in the living room. Sure, bears will run rampant and probably ruin our carpets, but it's probably not safe for a crawling baby.

2. Crazy computer wires need to go. That's not an actual photo of our desk (I'm not even sure what that equipment is) but suffice to say, ours looks pretty similar.



3. No more home-based laboratory in our basement. Even though we're super close to inventing some pretty colourful potions, it's just not that safe for Parker. They look like Kool-Aid! Ohhhh yeah!



4. The electric fence around the perimeter of our house should probably go. Or at least be turned down a bit.




Hopefully we can tidy up the house a bit in the next few weeks as Parker gets closer and closer to crawling!
