And They're Off!

Yesterday we fitted our stairgate, today baby L decided to get moving. She crawled at super speed through every room of the house, pointing out hazards along the way. There are hundreds of them....bleach and cleaning products on the bathroom floor. In the kitchen it was worse, bottles of wine on the floor, carrier bags in easy grasp, chemicals ago-go and a pedal bin just asking to be licked. Hot radiators are everywhere. The bedroom has too many small things in low drawers - makeup etc etc. I discovered all of this in the space of any hour. Oh yes, and the toilet roll holder is in handy reach so that was a good game too.

The TV, video, dvd, sky box area is a cool play area too. She is just too funny. She crawls over to them pretends to be doing something that she knows we find cute (dancing or playing peek a boo) and then BAM she reaches out and presses the nearest button.

WOW, she is learning stuff fast.

I love it though. At least I can now move about the house and she will follow if she wants me. How cool is that?
