We have done little to no childproofing in our house. Ben has been such a cautious child that there never seemed to be any need. The ONE thing that we managed to do was to put a child lock on the cabinet under the kitchen sink, keeping Ben away from the cleaning chemicals etc. I was terribly proud of this one accomplishment. Then Josh said the other day that he saw Ben walk over to the cabinet, take off the child lock, get something out of the cabinet and then re-attach the lock. Once again, feeling like a most excellent parent.
