We walked out the door just as a couple fire engines rounded the corner. Liz completely freaked out when she saw them. She became somewhat hysterical--screaming and trying to run in the opposite direction. I was eventually able to drag her to the van where she finally calmed down. Turns out along with being frightened by the sirens, Lizzie thought the fire fighters were actually coming to start a fire.
Anyway, we ended up spending (what felt like) a big chunk of time waiting in our car for the hazmat team to arrive and wave some sort of indicator wand under our shoes at which point Liz again freaked out and started crying. Once we were cleared to go I went to my OBGYN because I am now beyond paranoid about this pregnancy. When I got there everyone was very reassuring and I heard a heartbeat and everything so I'm glad I went.

That's crazy! A mercury spill? What an eventful morning.
Just wait until there's more than more to throw around (see Redneck Workout on my blog) - it's more fun the more kids are in the mix!
