She ate what?????????? September 16, 2009

I was out to lunch with Ryan when we got a call from the school nurse that Megan ATE hand sanitizer. You know the stuff that has 62% alcohol in it. growl.gif She ate it! Why? I have NO clue. rolleyes.gif So they stopped the bus, she did it on the bus, had another bus come get her and take her to the bus barn, so the other bus could continue it’s route picking up other kids for the PM Pre-K class. They had the nurse check her out and called poison control because none of us have any clue how much she actually ate. It took me 35 minutes to get there since our school is in another town. I get there and they told me if anything terrible was going to happen it would happen w/in an hour. Well it would take me another 35 minutes to get her to the doctor or hospital so I took her to her sitter. She looked fine, not drunk, but they said even a little tiny amount can put them at the legal limit for drunk. wacko.gif So the sitter is watching her closely and I’m STILL waiting for the doctor to get back to me as to whether I should bring her in. Poison control said to give her juice and a snack, but the school nurse couldn’t get her to do that. So my sitter and I got her to do that, thankfully. OMG, my child is more than likely legally drunk.

So warning if you give your children those little bottles of hand sanitizer to clip to their school bags. I’m totally against hand sanitizer, but the girls begged to have the clip kind on their bags, so I did – stupid mistake. Although how on earth would I think my 4.5 year old child would EAT it????????????

I feel like the worst mother in the world right now. bawling.gif Just got a call back from our doctor and he said that stuff is lethal to kids, but since nothing had happened in an hours time she will be fine just continue to flush fluids through her so the alcohol gets out of her system.

ANYONE with this stuff for the kids, especially young kids being around, BEWARE!

I’m still confused as to why she’d eat that stuff.  It doesn’t smell good, it smells like alcohol!  Arggghhhhh, I thought we were through with the eating everything stage, but not with this kid :rolleyes:

But I can’t.  :P   Instead I have to get ready for Kylie’s friend birthday party we are having tomorrow.  It’s already turned out to be somewhat of a fiasco because of the place we are having it at.  GRRRRRRRRRRRR!!! Won’t go into it any further.  I just pray it seems better tomorrow at the actual party, or else I’m going to be terribly embarrassed.   My blood still boils thinking about this.

I have to go get Buster shaved today, so I better be off!

 

Happy Birthday Booga! September 7, 2009

My sweet Booga is 7 today.  I just can’t believe it.  She looks so much older, especially since she got all her hair chopped off.  wahhhhhh!

We had a birthday cookout for her over the weekend.  While it was stressful getting ready for it, it was a fun weekend and most importantly I think she enjoyed it.

Now off for some much needed zzzzz’s.  ROFL.
