Ever get that sinking feeling in your gut when:
You're sitting in the living room while your baby explores around you and
the next thing you hear is
a "swish-swish-swish"
coming from the bathroom
and you realize:
the toilet seat lid is up.
quite possibly the best reason EVER to encourage the men of the household to put the seat and lid down.

This is so incredibly true! My sister-in-law's baby sister actually died from drowning in the toilet. Sydney doesn't plan in the toilet (yet) but she does like to play in the bathroom.
ReplyDeleteOh just you wait. It is only a matter of time until she learns to open it herself. Shane is pretty good at it :)
ReplyDeleteCami, that is so scary! She's not tall enough to fall in there yet, but I'll definitely have to keep an eye on her now that she knows there is water in there to play with.
ReplyDeleteAmber, have you found a way to baby proof the toilet the way you can get things to baby proof cupboards and drawers?
ROFL!!! That's just one of those life lessons...
ReplyDeleteYou can buy toilet seat locks, just like cupboard, drawer or refrigerator locks. Babies R Us has them, and I know Target might have some baby locks, but the Babies R Us here has a whole aisle of all sorts of locks for anything you can think of, including the knobs on the stove and door knobs when they get older.
ReplyDeleteOh no! Thanks for the reminder, Olivia is about to enter that stage herself . . .
