Moving furniture to babyproof the living room

Coffee tableIt’s a good thing Daddy T and I have divided up all the household responsibilities. He’s in charge of the car, finances and document filing, while I oversee health, travel and interiors. The latter is the important one right now.

I need a bit of freedom to turn our home into a babyproof foam castle for Baby Girl. I keep noticing new dangers, and the changes we’re making are likely to be a tad more major than we first envisioned. In fact, I’m not sure Daddy T will recognise our flat when he returns from his business trip.

The coffee table has to go. I read a post on the blog Oh Joy!, which mentioned that coffee tables were the main reason for ER visits in the US for a certain age group, and I’m clearly not interested in having Baby Girl contribute to the local stats.

I’ve found inspiration on the same blog, and I’ve decided to move the current coffee table and use it to block off an area with dangerous plugs. To replace it, I’m also on the look-out for an ottoman, which the blog suggests can be used instead of a coffee table. Only the best for Baby Girl.
