Zachary's Little Adventure

Yesterday Zachary was happily playing with a toy (yes, an actual toy!) in the middle of the living room, and I thought I would take that opportunity to sneak to the bathroom for a minute. We have baby gates up to keep Zachary contained, and I figured he would be perfectly safe for just a minute.

Well, there seems to be a difference between having the gates set up and actually remembering to close them. When I came back downstairs Zachary was gone and the house was quiet....where could he have gone?

I walked through the downstairs calling his name, and realized the gate to the kitchen was open. Quickly walking into the kitchen I see Zachary....HALFWAY THROUGH THE DOGGY DOOR! The little bugger was making a break for it! A few more seconds and he would have tumbled down the back steps and onto our patio.

So, from now on, must make sure to actually close the gate.
