Baby proofing

Chad and I knew from day one that we wouldn't "baby proof" our house. We believe in letting her explore, keeping a close eye and letting her learn from her mistakes. Well, she is too young to understand and stop doing what she is doing when we tell her "no." That lead us to some baby proofing: not leaving shoes lying on the floor (because she will put them in her mouth), keeping doors closed (because she will explore), keeping the toilet lid closed (just in case we forget that door open), trying to vacuum every other day (so she eats only a descent amount of dog hair), and, now, keeping the dog's food and water bowls outside.
"Oooh, what is this?"
"It tastes like nothing, it must be for playing"
Splash splash
"Let me bring it a little closer"
"Oh, hi mommy!"

We didnt babyproof either. We did spank though, so we never moved anything. :) Good luck!

I got tired of saying no don't touch that, so we did some baby proofing and installed locks on cabinets. She will learn how to open doors as soon as she is tall enough so you will have to decided if you want to get locks for those too. Ethan loves to play in the cat's water too, even now, and there is not much you can do about that. She is very cute, I agree Heather!

An electrical fire is one of the highest risks of danger for a child.
Here is a way to prevent electrical fires from happening. A new fire-prevention outlet has come out, which is able to prevent electrical fires from occurring within the electrical circuit. There are multiple sensors within the fire-prevention outlet that can detect abnormal heat from within the electrical circuit, once those temperatures are detected, the circuit is shut down. With a device like this you can be sure to prevent electrical fires from happening in your home or anywhere that you choose. If you want to learn more about the fire-prevention outlet, you can go to http://www.BSafeElectrix.com.
