Here's what I'm looking for help with.....
When Alexis escaped, Addison wasn't far behind. I figured as long as the girls stayed out of trouble I would just let them play in the kitchen while I finished up dinner. Alexis opened one of the cabinets and proceeded to pull out the giant turkey roaster pan. She started smacking it with her hand and laughing. I handed her a plastic spoon and she banged her little heart out. I only wish that the video camera was close by. I did manage to get a few pictures......
Addison says, "banging these pots is super fun sissy!"
Alexis my little goober!
Even with the messy hair, I still LOVE this picture.
Addison, always trying to eat everything!
Addison, I'm not quite sure what she is up to here?
Both girls thought it was funny to crawl in and out of the pans, but apparently banging on large roaster pans is also hysterical. While I must agree that it was pretty cute and funny to watch my girls to this, it made me realize that we need to get our butts in gear with baby proofing more of the house. I've been reading online reviews for cabinet and drawer locks, but none of them really have great reviews or safety ratings. Does anyone have any suggestions on what works best? We have 22 cabinets (yes, we have a lot of kitchen cabinets, but this also includes the 3 bathrooms) that we need to secure and probably 12 drawers. I don't want to break the bank but I'm also not concerned about price as much as I am safety. Any and all suggestions are welcome!!
I promise gym pictures will be up soon! Sorry for the delay!!

omg I am SOOO behind on reading your blog. The girls have changed so much since I last checked in with you!! These pictures are great :) My plan is to do some reading and get caught up before your last post.
For our cabinets we use these white plastic ones that hook on the inside. You have to push them down while pulling the door open to get them to work. They are a pain at first, but now we've had them so long (we actually got them for our cats pre-Allison) that we know how to use use them. They were always a deterrent for her. I would avoid the magnet kind. They can be a big pain in the butt and if you lose the "key" it's really difficult to deal with.
Thanks for your nice comment on my blog, by the way. It's nice to be missed sometimes!
I agree with Robin, those are the ones we have an Connor at 18 months still hasn't figured them out! I do feel sorry for you, when we moved in to the house it was already baby proofed! Good luck!
one thing to keep in mind so that the girls don't get too discouraged is to take one cabinet and make it theirs that way they know which one to play in and they will probably ignore the rest for awhile anyways. kings loves playing in the kitchen and as long as she can't break it or hurt her i just let her explore and she spends more time playing with non-toys in there then the toys i waste my money on....
