Freak accidents are my thing...I can't just fall and scrape my knee, I punch the ground and break my hand in two places...I can't just have a baby and be good to go, I have to get bells palsy and paralyze my face (only about 1% of new Moms get this mind you)...I can't go to the lake and get a sunburn, no I have to get 2nd degree burns which land me in the E.R. with walnut size blisters on the back of my legs! So you get the point, well today ranks right up there, might even take the cake! I was getting ready for the day...Logan was asleep, Tracen was watching Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, so it was perfect timing. I was walking out of my bathroom to get dressed and felt something prick...yes, prick is what it felt like at first, my toe. But when I looked down, there was a bobby pin stuck in my toe! When I looked closer, it wasn't just in my toe, but it was also out the other side! I called my mom to get up the courage to pull it out, but when I tugged on it, it was stuck! AAAAHHH! What was I to do? So, I called my bro-in-law to come tug it out, but he too couldn't get it out and now I was crying! So to shorten it up a bit...thank heavens for bro-in-laws who come to my rescue and take me to none other than my father-in-law, who gets me all fixed up! Thanks to neighbors who watch my kids at the drop of a dime while they wait for amazing MOMs to come watch those darlings! Thanks to everyone who helped me out today! And, I will try to avoid any further freak accidents! or bobby pin attacks!

My amazing toe with a bobby pin through the top of the toenail and out the side

The x-rays...My father-in-law thought that Chris would like seeing these. Just missed the bone! LUCKY ME!

Oh my gosh! I can't believe you did that to your toe! I hope it gets better fast! Let me know when you and Angela hang out and I will be there! My e-mail is jenjohnson15@yahoo.com
Wow..just, wow
You have got to be kidding me. That is probably the weirdest thing I have seen in a long time. I'm actually a little shocked that you had a bobby pin on the floor as you are known for how freaking clean your house is! What did Chris say?
Wow...that is amazing. I love the pictures. If you didn't post them...I would have asked to see them. I love things like that. (they happen to me too, you're not alone in the freak accidents).
I love the blog, if you go private, invite me.

Logan looks just like Chris. He's so cute. Logan that is. haha Thanks for the advice on formula. I went and picked up a new can. I hope Tanner likes it.
THat is pretty funny! Sorry I know it hurt but my mom does the same kind of stuff and now it's just pretty funny! I hope it feels better...it looked very painful!
Kent says that this was WAY worse than the marmot picture! I know that you just shoved a bobby pin up your toe to compete with our marmots!!!!
Wow Sara. That is about all I have to say. Wow. Mike and I kind of giggled (sorry) when we looked at your x-rays. Maybe they can do a story about that on Grey's Anatomy. They have freak accidents on there all of the time. I still love you even though now you have a freak toe to go with your freak hand and legs. He he he!!
Holy Cow Sara! That's so crazy that a bobby pin could do that much damage! Jason wants to take your x-ray into class for show and tell!! ;) Good thing your Father-in-law is a Podiatrist. I hope your toe is doing better.
Sara! I found you! This is Brittny (Adlish) Jacobs. Your family is so cute. It is great to see how wonderful you guys are doing. We should keep in touch! Our blog is www.caseyandbrittny.blogspot.com. Can you add us to your blog so we can still check up on you guys??
Um, ouch. I'm glad you took the time to take a picture though. I have one to add to the list. You can't just ask a boy out on a date and walk away giddy, you run away and fall and scrape your knees (but it did get me out of a speeding ticket;) I hope your toe feels better soon.
Sara I am so glad you found my blog. Your sweet boys are darling:) So glad you got the bobby pin out, yikes! My e-mail is beyondamy at hotmail dot com. Amy
Oh man! You were JUST talking about this today! I was picturing it looking a lot worse! I'm so glad everything worked out!
