We did have one on the kitchen, one at top and one at botttom of the stairs. When we moved Ben in to a proper bed we took the one off the kitchen and put it onto his bedroom door. He's never really been a problem in the kitchen anyway. We took the one off the top of the stairs not long after, as Ben was only upstairs when he went to bed, and there didn't seem any point on having twostarigates upstairs. We took the one off the bottom of the stairs only recently, although we realised that we haven't been actually shutting it for ages now lol!

Tom's got one on his room, but there's no point because he sleeps in Max's room now!

There's another one at the top of the stairs. I have this fear that they may wake up in the middle of the night and fall down them hence the stair gate there. 

Apart from that the house isn't really toddler proof anymore.  Sadly, it's just dawned on me how fast they're growing up.

We did have a gate on the bottom of the stairs and one over the kitchen when we were at the other house...for isla initially...but then more for jerry lol to stop him from going upstairs aaaand so i could put him into the kitchen if anyone came round and were scared of him.

We moved to this house and we just had the gate on the bottom of the stairs...but again that was for Jerry...i put one on islas bedroom as the early oclock wanderings wore me out.  Once Jerry was no longer, ive taken the gate off the stairs, dont need it anymore as cass doesnt go up the stairs.  Islas gate is coming off sometime today..cant close it anymore as shes doing the night time toilet thing herself...so ill be swearing with a drill as and when joe decides to crawl out of bed!
