Little Miss Mischief

Hi All,
I am terrified of babies with pens, almost as much as I am terrified of babies with sharper objects such as knives and scissors. So, imagine my horror when I turned to Bree after changing Drew to find her looking like this......

And believe me, although there were absolutely no signs of injury, I was plenty horrified! She was on the floor and not in her high chair when the infraction occured. I just put her there to clean her up. She even looks guilty, doesn't she?!?

We are working on baby proofing.  We don't recklessly leave pens within the children's reach. My best guess is that one of the cats knocked a pen off the table. I guess it's one more thing that must be stored away, rather than just put up where the kiddos can not reach it. We are learning!
In other baby proofing news -

• The baby gate at the stairway is installed
• Outlet plugs are in place
• Cabinet locks are in place
• Magazines and virtually all other things except toys have been moved from ground level up and out of reach
• We have drawer locks yet to install. The drawers have not caused any issues YET

The other potential hazard I am finding is Bree loves to climb. She loves to climb up onto the lower level of one of our end tables. There are no sharp edges and it is quite low to the floor. She sometimes takes a short tumble onto the carpet after climbing up. I don't want to restrain them from exploring and learning the ways of standing, walking and climbing too much. I think the watchful eye is probably the best option right now. I guess figuring out the delicate balance between allowing freedoms and protecting the twinners is pretty much going to be a constant from here on out!
