Yesterday was completely not my day. It started off good I slept a little more in the morning. Since it's the weekend Alex took over baby duties in the morning so I was able to sleep until 9:00. I spent some time coloring with Taylor before she left to her dad's house.

Me and Alex started a little BBQ. The baby was inside asleep on his swing so I took the baby monitor and sat out on the back porch relaxing with Alex. I came back in the house made some french fries then when I was done I went back outside since the baby was still sleeping. We start talking about renting a movie so we decide I should go quickly while the baby was still asleep. As I'm walking towards the back door, through the window on the door I can see the pan that I had cooked the fries on is on the stove ON FIRE!!!! The first words out of my mouth were "OH SHIT"!!! I went inside, grabbed the flaming pan and took it outside as I'm walking out the door witht he flaming pan the wind pushes the flames my way so I threw the pan on the floor and screamed for Alex. I went back inside..the house was full of smoke, I turned off the stove, opened the front door and grabbed the baby to take him out of the smoke filled house. I completely freaked out...I almost burnt the house down with my son inside!! Luckily evertything was okay. Looking back I don't think grabbing the flaming pan was such a great idea but my first reaction was to take the flaming thing out of my house!!! Since it was oil burning on the pan I knew I couldn't throw water on it so that was the only thing I thought of to do. So I burned my hand, the tips of my eyebrows and eyelashes were burnt too, but the baby is okay and I didn't burn anything inside the house. We don't own the house we rent and it's an old house that needs to be remodeled, the house has iron bars on the inside on all the windows. So thank god I went in when I did before the house really caught on fire because i would not have been able to get inside to get the baby out through any of the windows..that's what freaked me out the most. You would think that would be the end of my day..but nooooo.....

The light bulb in the ceiling fan in the dining room went out so Alex changed the bulb. He must have not screwed the light base back on correctly because when I went to go pull the string to turn the light off the light base fell hit me on the head and shattered into a million pieces on the floor.
So now I have a burnt hand, burned eyebrows/eyelashes and a bump on my head!! What a day!!!

Thankfully we are all safe and nothing happened but my oh my that was a close one..One that I will never forget. I told Alex I don't think I should cook for a while!!
