Where's My Crash Helmet??

What started out was an early jail break perpetrated by Mommy resulted in getting home at our usual time. Can you believe that some lady rear ended Mommy and me??? There we were waiting for a safe time to merge into traffic and that lady tried to push us out into traffic (okay, so maybe it wasn't intentional). What was she thinking?? I screamed when she hit us because she scared me! As soon as Mommy pulled over onto the shoulder I resumed trying to eat my hands and blanket (yeah, Mommy's brilliant decision to bust me out of baby jail earlier resulted in me not getting to finish my afternoon meal)! Aunt Patty was going to come rescue me from the side of the road but the police officer was quite efficient and got us back on the road rather quickly. Good thing that the police officer didn't know that Mommy busted me out of Baby Jail before I finished my daily sentence!

Daddy got home right after Mommy and I did (he came rushing home because Mommy called him while we were waiting for the police) and I just laughed and laughed about our little mishap this afternoon. For the record everyone, remember how Mommy trashed Daddy for running over the mailman? Isn't it ironic that she was in charge when I had my very first car accident?? I seem to be doing well but Mommy and Daddy are making me go to the doctor in the morning just to get the official all clear.

We had to go shopping tonight to get me a new car seat for Mommy's car. It seems that once a car seat is involved in a "crash" it shouldn't be used again. Mommy and Daddy aren't too sure what constitutes a "crash" but have decided that it's better to get me a new seat than to take any chances. My new car seat is wonderful!! I really like my new car seat and Mommy likes it too because it is lighter, slimmer and fits in my stroller (the one she had to get for her car...not my 4x4 all terrain stroller that Uncle Carl and Auntie Cash got for me..that one is too big for her car). Oh yeah, Mommy seems to be okay too. She wouldn't care if she was hurt anyway because all that matters to her is that I am safe and healthy. The car isn't too bad but Mommy and Daddy have been thinking about getting something different for a while now and I think today's events will cause them to super-size the MINI.

Well that was my day. Everyone remember to buckle up and make sure your babies are properly strapped in too! Oh yeah, Where's Joey and Jesse (a.k.a. Cousin Crash)? Hey Crash, when you come see me we can share accident stories!!
