What The...

I'm on the computer, paying bills this morning, and Ky comes running in the house screaming, "Landon is stuck under the garage door!" What?! I go running out to the garage and sure enough there is Landon laying on his stomach with the garage door stuck on top of him. Screaming! I try to raise the door, to no avail. It will not budge. Its. Just. Stuck. There! I tell Kyson to grab my phone so I can call.... Who? Jacob? 911? ??? I keep on trying to raise the garage door, but it is just stuck, and I'm afraid everytime I push the button, that the door is going to smash him even more. So as I'm telling Ky to dial 911, I push the button again and up it goes. It starts raising... Can I tell you, I was almost freaking out. I'm having all of these flashes of stories I've heard and the kid dies from being smashed. So he gets up, he has a big red mark on his poor little back. But he seems fine. Do I take him in? Could there be anything wrong inside? I'm not sure what to do. Jacob thinks he is ok. He seems fine. Now he is taking a nap. I think I will see how he is when he wakes up. Stuff like that scares me though. The stuff that could've happened on the inside that you can't see. Anyway, SCARY! I am so thankful he is ok! And I am getting someone to look at the garage. If a broom is in the way, it pops up, but a child? Seriously? It just stays down? Not good...

So how it happened? Apparently Ky was closing the garage and Landon wanted to get in first... I don't think he'll ever try that again. (I kinda wish I had a picture, it was quite a site to see!)

That is so scary Annette! Is he complaining of any pain? I would probably take him in just to make sure there wasn't any internal damage. But then again I'm a total worrier, and I wouldn't be able to stop thinking about it until my child got the clean bill of health. That's just me.

I am so happy for you guys that he's okay though!

Oh my goodness! That just would freak me out! I think I would call the nurse and ask her....my doc's office I think knows me well cuz I call them all the time and ask questions...the garage door is sooo heavy! I hope he is still feeling ok when he wakes up!

So he has been fine. All day I'd push on his chest and ask if it hurt or anything. He keeps saying no. I think it must have just pinned him but not been pushing on him as hard as I thought originally. Pretty scary though still.
