little tip for FTM from a STM

keep a pair of scissors in your LO's new room. 

there are a million things you will use them for - tags, diaper bags, anything you can't rip or chew open!

i still use them all the time in DS's room 

:) 

**Edit - i know it sounds silly but i was just thinking about it today when i went to use them and realized how damn smart i was when i brought them upstairs! haha

Genius! I just put this on my "planner" (also known as: I emailed DH to ask him to add this to the shopping list he keeps on his phone. Hey, whatever works, right?).

I have already been running up and down the stairs to get the scissors at least a few times a week - like when gifts arrive in boxes, when I need to take tags off purchases, etc.

I keep mine in my laundry room as that's where things get sorted for me.

Yup, us too.  I have a pair of small scissors in the medicine cabinet for urgent needs (or trimming my eyebrows lol).  I just don't feel comfortable having scissors out & about with a toddler around.   FWIW, I wouldn't feel comfortable if it was just the baby either.  /shrug

Good tip.  We keep a pair of scissors in our master bedroom and I've already used them a ton in the nursery!
