Great Product: Magnetic Safety Locks

I wanted to write a little about some of my favorite products for babies and toddlers - so far, that is. It's ever changing as our needs change.

At first, we bought the stupid plastic drawer locks. Well, when little Chloe wants in, she's gonna yank and pull and pry until she gets in - even to the point of tipping over furniture.

I heard about "magnetic locks" and thought it sounded cool, but unnecessary. Now with mechanical and into everything Chloe, I'm realizing that there is no "child-proof" only "child-resistant" - and it just buys you enough time to think to yourself, "Hey, the kids are quiet. I wonder what's wrong!?"

I have to say, these are pricey, but for greater peace of mind than plastic, it's worth it. I've had them on the "chemical areas" and knife drawers. I can't say if they are easy to install or not, Ryan did that part. They seemed a little tricky, but well worth it.

My twin girls at one day old

32 Weeks Today!

At my first ultrasound, my perinatologist Dr. Gonzales, gave me three goals to meet. The first goal was to get to 24 weeks, the second goal was 28 weeks, and the third goal was 32 weeks. He said that by 32 weeks there is a 99% chance of delivering twins that will not suffer any long term problems as a result of being born prematurely.
I'm so happy that I reached that goal TODAY!
I can rest a little easier knowing that if they are born at this point, they may still have a little time to spend in the hospital but that they have almost 100% chance at surviving and thriving.
You go girls!

Just found diaper beads in the washer. That's what I get for trying to hurry! What a mess!
