Time to Baby Proof... Which Might Also be Daddy Proofing

As I showed you in the Thoughtless Tuesday Post, Logan had made a mess with the Tupperware the other night. From that situation came the following conversation:

Renae: looks like we are gonna have to put the latches on the cabinets now
Me: Yeah, definitely 
Renae: It'll probably have to be sooner than later
Me: Well hopefully I'll get it done by the end of my break
Renae: You better get it done by the end of your break. 

So, hence this blog post...which I am sure will be the first of many posts on us "baby-proofing" our house (I place that in quotes, because I am sure that the house will never be baby-proof). And the reason why it might be Daddy-proof as well??? Probably because of the 5 or 6 times I tried to open the cabinets (only minutes after the latches were installed) and forgot that they had the new latches on them.

Here is just the beginning...

We noticed that Logan is very observant. He sees when we plug our laptops into the walls and then he tries to pull the plugs out. Today I walked into the dining room to him playing with my laptop cord...time for the outlet covers!

He was a little confused on why it wasn't going in...but he was determined to figure it out...o boy!

Then it was time to bust out the big guns!!!! Haven't touched this guy much since the December projects...o yeah!

Gathered the necessary equipment for this job :)

Hired the much needed help...he held my screw gun in place while I was getting the screws ready.

The first latch of many!

He really wanted to be in the whole process...but was kind of timid when the drill made noise.

I still don't know whether he was trying to help steady my left arm, or tickle my right arm...but we got the job done!

Now it was time to test out the latch system...yeah he was frustrated...and then bored.

At least the Logan Level kitchen cabinets are latched...next come the drawers...and then the bathroom! Sorry for the messy under the sink shot! (Renae probably cares more about what it looks like than I do).
