Decking the halls - Toddler style

During the last two months Elizabeth has gotten into EVERYTHING! When she is downstairs we close off all the doors and allow her only in the main rooms- the kitchen, dining room and living room. We had to move our couch to block the stairs so we don't spend all of our time chasing her up them. We locked all the kitchen cabinets except one which she has successfully found and tries to open at least 5 times every day. We moved all extraneous furniture and even our plants upstairs since she started to topple them over and munch on them like they were crackers. We finally thought we had child proofed the house.

Except now it is Christmas, and I really must have a tree. We discussed our options and decided upon a small tree on our TV stand. To make it more secure we tied it to the wall with fishing line. Here's hoping that we can keep it this nice for the next month.
