I went to the gym today. The kids came with. That was the good thing, that I went to the gym that is. Our gym has childcare up to age 12. Another good thing.
So, I check in then proceed to the kid check-in counter. They have this huge nifty room for the kids. It has a McDonald's size play structure, 4 video game stations, a tv, and two craft tables among other toys to play with. Also in this room is a waist high gate that keep the kids contained.
Here's where it gets interesting.
I decided to lift Isabel over this gate instead of unlocking it and letting her walk through. I thought this was a good idea. It wasn't.
As I was lifting her over and setting her down I had to let the gate support my weight for a bit. Bad idea. The gate could not support me so it stripped itself of its hinge screws and completely came off from the wall causing me to drop Isabel and fall on top of the gate! Isabel was fine, just a little shaken and confused. I, on the other hand, had other issues.
'Are you alright mam?'
'Yes, I'm fine, but I may need some stitches for my pride.'

Oh, I hate it when I do stuff like that. Glad that you or Isabel weren't hurt, with the exception of your pride. Too bad we can't put a band-aid on that!
Good job going to the gym though!!! I've only been twice since school got out last month!
Oh no! I've so done almost that exact same thing!
Uh ohhh......Poor thing! At least no one got seriously hurt. So the question is, are ya going back again soon or gonna wait a while...."Oh, here comes the lady who broke the gate with her kid!" hehehe... ;)
Oh my, how embarrassing! I'm glad you guys didn't get hurt (other than the pride). Poor Deanne!
