Look at her go! As for babyproofing ideas, I think it's just a "proof as she goes" sort of thing. You can keep the obvious dangers out the way, but they are somehow always capable of finding ones you never thought would be an issue. Because of that, I like to keep certain things that I don't mind my children getting into down lower. So I keep tupperware lids on a low shelf in the kitchen and board books on bottom shelves in the livingroom, random household items I don't mind that they play with in bottom desk drawers, etc. Keeps them entertained and my mind at ease.
I will say, though, that arranging your house for a crawling baby is A LOT easier than arranging it for a climbing toddler, so enjoy being about to just move things to higher ground while you can. :)
Wow, she's trucking along! That's so cool! She'll be walking in just a couple more months, right? I have no idea about how to baby proof the house, but I am sure you can give me tips later on once you figure it out :) I know if you have stairs, to baby gate those. Jeff's niece surprised everyone by tackling the staircase before she could even walk! His sister came in the room one day, and baby girl was on the wrong level of the house.
