Chuck E Cheese
Wednesday we hit Chuck E Cheese. Right before we went, we stopped by Ross to pick up a coat for Asher. It's gotten quite cold. Finally- I guess! While there I got side tracked and also picked up a few jackets for myself. While I was checking out, I let Asher out of my arms to go play with the other kids. They were glued to the front doors- trying to look at Chuck E Cheese, which was right next door. I told them to move away from the doors and just after I did, Asher began crying- quite loudly!- his finger was stuck in the door. I didn't even see anyone come in- I must have turned away right after I told them to move.
The door smashed his finger pretty good. The clerk offered a wipe and a band-for my bawling child. I managed to corral three toddlers, a stroller, two bags of clothes, a roll of christmas wrapping paper and a crying one year old into Chuck E Cheese. I debated whether to still go to Chuck E Cheeses, but the kids were so excited I didn't want to let them down.
The kids right away started running and playing. I got them some tokens, with a very sad Asher and sat down with my cell phone and anxiously called Josh, the Dr. and Aunt Ellen. After a quick bite of pizza, a few games, a necessary picture and some prizes- ok- it wasn't so quick- we left and I dropped the kids off at Ellen's and then drove Asher to the Insta-care. The Insta-care did not take my insurance, so I proceeded once again to go to a closer ER Satellite- one I had never been to.
They x-rayed his finger (I'm not pregnant so I got to hold him while they x-rayed him). He did not have any broken bones, but a bad cotusion on his finger. Yesterday he was fine and today he has a fever and is sick. I guess he's trying to fight off any infection he may have gotten. Hopefully it will clear up and I won't have to go to the Dr. on Monday.
So, wow. That was Chuck E Cheese for you. Will we go back again? Probably.
