BB Proofing

BB just gets more and more active - here he is standing up with the help of his Christmas toy from Auntie Jen and family.

J put this together last night, and BB loves it already - he spins the bugs on the back when sitting and of course, it assists with the beloved standing. And in the background you can peek our plush new rug, part of our half-hearted baby-proofing efforts. I am procrastinating the baby-proofing, as we are pretty sure it means saying goodbye to our coffee table, but we were happy to get this beautiful wool rug - it's very cushy, so now when BB loses his balance and bumps his head on the floor, we don't have to worry that he has a concussion, and it didn't disrupt the already-existing decor. Baby-proofing is tricky - we are trying to decide what we should just teach BB limits with and what actually isn't safe or appropriate for him. J has big plans to head to Home Depot on Saturday for cabinet locks and toilet-securers and other such stuff, and I am hoping to scour Craigs List for an upholstered storage ottoman (to become a ottoman-slash-coffee-table-slash-toy-or-blanket-storage) today. We have to keep this little bug safe!

  2. Love the rug. LOVE the toy. Don't have any tips on baby proofing, but let me know if you hear of anything fabulous. Oh, and LOVE the baby! He's looking all grown up standing there like a big boy.
