Oh my goodness, what a day- Wonder how many more we'll have like this...

I went into the pantry today to get some things for dinner tonight, and Aspen shut the door on me (because she is really good at shutting doors now-what a big girl) and then she opened the drawer to play with the stuff in it. The one right outside in front of the pantry door, and I was locked in. I couldn't get out of the pantry. It was a little scary, I could only open it a crack, and Aspen was on the outside of the door...so I enticed Aspen to stay close by; by tempting her with my phone to play with. That just made her cry cuz I wouldn't give it to her. Then I got a "wise mom" moment, and thought maybe I could reach my arm through the crack a little and push her slightly towards the drawer to push it shut....well, not a smart mom moment I decided...next thing I know she crashes and starts screaming. She bumped her head. But she is okay. She just got a little bump on her head (what a great mom I am). Then I called Ashtons friends (and mine) Dan and Laura Call. They came and broke in through the window and rescued us. It was quite a day. Good thing I had my phone in my back pocket. It could have been worse I guess...I did get to laughing when I had to explain to Laura on the phone that Aspen locked me in the pantry and she was outside the door crying to get in with me. Oh the good times we have as parents.

HA! That's classic... you'd better write that in a journal or baby book or something. Now see- if your old phone hadn't been dropped in the tub a few weeks ago, you wouldn't have gotten your skinny phone, and it wouldn't have been in your pocket, and then you'd REALLY have been in pickle! Funny how things always work out in the end...
