movin' on up

Meredith has really learned how to get around these days.

She just learned how to crawl up the stairs.


Here she is showing off.


So - I need a gate for the bottom of the stairs now. If you have suggestions, please comment. I really have no idea what to put there.


This is what I currently use.

Hey Sarah~ Your cutie is on her way!! The chair will work fine for now, but she is a smart one...she will try to climb over it and then really get hurt (know from experience :0) A gate will work the best, a hassle for you, but safe for her! Enjoy this time, it goes fast!!

Hi Sarah! We have a similar dilema at the bottom of our stairs. We're going to build a wood box around the banister (so we don't ruin the banister by screwing into it, and we can screw into the box instead). You could also put a piece of wood against the wall on the opposite side of the stairs (to shim the wall out far enough to match the banister.) Then screw the gate into the banister box and the wood on the wall. Does that make sense? I could send photos once Nate builds it, but it'll be a few more months for us (hopefully!) Good luck!! -Jen M
