We have had multiple phases in baby proofing our apartment. First it was when Marley started to crawl, then again when she started to walk, and now yet AGAIN when she figured out how to open the hall closet.
Now, we're not idiots. We had already purchased a baby proof lock so that Marley could not slide the closet doors. What we didn't plan for, was her realizing that they could swing. The doors only have a track on the top, so Marlene learned earlier this week that she could swing them outward and crawl right into the closet. Babies are so smart!
So after a day of trying to block the doors with chairs, we realized this wasn't going to work. She could have hurt herself because the doors could swing out pretty far. We decided that we could take them off, use curtains to hide the shelves, and then Marlene could be safe.
Now she is in heaven, and thinks that the closet is her personal play nook. Here's some video of the day we cleaned out the closet, but hadn't taken the doors off yet:
This little girl is non-stop, ALL day. We're just trying to stay one step ahead and
keep her out of trouble!
