Baby proofing, help with tile floors?

What do you recommend for all the wires behind the tv? Those are the first things he goes after. Also, does anyone have a crawling baby and tile floor? I vacuum constantly but there are still fuzzies no matter how often I vacuum. Anyone have suggestions on these things? Any other baby proofing advice would be great.

I will be selling bags full of my daughter’s clothes she has outgrown – she is 3 now – so infant to 3 in sizes. I know that i used to try to find bargains on baby/toddler clothes cuz they grow out of their clothes so quick at that age! I am going to have a yard sale and didnt want to bother trying to sell the clothes as i usually take them to a consignment store or give them away. Well, times are tough and me & my b/f both were laid off from our jobs recently, so we need all the money we can get! Also i need my closet space back! My question is – i have no idea how to set them up at the sale. I dont want people to have to rummage thru a bunch of boxes and i dont want to have to price each individual peice of clothing. Some of the clothes are more play-type clothes and are kinda worn, some are nearly new. I was thinking about hanging up the nicer stuff with individual price tags and then the rest i could kinda group together and just put a sign up with the prices. Also, as for prices i was gonna try and price them far cheaper than the 2nd hand stores and what not. Maybe .50 each or something? Please, does anyone have suggestions? Any yard sale experts?

Just bought a new crocheted baby blanket on Ebay and it smells like someone’s house -The blanket is adorable it just stinks-:( Anyone have suggestions other than to wash it-
I dont want to wash it cause it was hand made just for me for a gift but like others said it came from a smoke filled house so it smells like cigarette smoke but Ill try throwing it in the dryer for a few mins and if that doesnt work, take it outside and let the sun do its job..Thanks for all the suggestions
