There's no stopping her now!

OK. So she was crawling, and she was sitting, but hadn't quite linked the two together - until now! So, now we can't leave her sat in the middle of a room and expect her to be there when we return. At the moment it takes a bit of effort, but it doesn't stop her and that object at the far side of the room is always more attractive than whatever is right by her side! That object could be the vegetable rack in the corner of the kitchen, the cable that we thought we'd pushed far enough under the sideboard (ha!) or the magazine that we left by the side of the sofa. In fact, anything that's not a toy!

So now our house looks like gate city! Having three stories in the house, with the kitchen, lounge and playroom on the middle floor, we've got to have 2 gates just for the stairs on that floor. And then we decided to put another one across the landing to keep Imogen separate from Buster without constantly banishing the dog downstairs. This gate means that Buster can have the lounge, while I'm in the kitchen and Imogen's in the playroom and everyone's happy - it also stops Buster getting to Imogen's toys!

Oh the joys of a moving child!
