Can lo open the door?
Jay's crib is close to his door right now and he can reach the door knob. Earlier this week he opened his door. I was shocked.
Is everyone else doing this?

Re: Can lo open the door?
I don't think I've ever let her touch a door handle, come to think of it.
Jay can reach all the door knobs in our house. But the only one he has opened so far was his bedrooms.
How long has he been able to do it?
Oh crap about 8 months I believe. His crib was also by the door. Between that and the light we had to move his crib.
Everytime we went in/out we practiced opening/ closing doors.
p's tall so he's been able to reach a door handle for a while now but up until recently he hasn't really been interested in them. the past two weeks or so he's constantly opening cabinet doors (we're renting so we havent baby proofed them) and then this morning he touched a hot pan on the stove...we're in trouble! it's probably only a matter of time before he realizes the doors are fun to open
This since about 10 or 11 months when she was climbing on things she could reach the doors and turn the knob. But we have door locks on all the doors except the bathroom so Aiden can go potty on his own.
Lucian can reach doorknobs, but he hasn't figured them out yet. I'm sure it'll only be another month or better before he turns one and we have to babyproof them. He already opens every cabinet he can touch.
BTW, the plastic links that come with a lot of baby toys are GREAT for keeping cabinet doors closed! The knobs on the lower cabinets in our house are close together so we only need one link per two knobs.
