Happy Father's Day???

Well, it was supposed to be a great Father's Day dinner. We waited until late afternoon to head to the Big T in Lawton, MI. We (Doug, the kids, and me) were all sitting there, happily munching on popcorn, trying to watch the end of the Nascar race on TV, sipping on our drinks, and watching Lydia Mei eat animal crackers and Cheerios. I was trying to feed Lydia Mei some green beans (baby food style) when all of a sudden, she started choking. She was choking on an animal cracker while I had just shoved some green beans in her mouth. (Great pediatric nurse!!) She started to cry at first, then turned purple. I was ready to do the Heimlic manuever when she seemed to recover and I could see the cracker in her mouth. I decided to take her out of the eating area of the restaurant....bad move. She proceeded to throw up down my entire front!!!! We were both covered. Doug came to the rescue. The restaurant help came to the rescue. Fortunately, I had layers on so I could remove my t shirt (in the bathroom, of course!) and still have my tank and sweater on. Needless to say...Lydia Mei was quite soiled, I had spots on my pants and sweater, and Doug had a large spot on his shirt. Yummy!!!! Time for the food!

Poor Doug! This was supposed to be his Father's Day dinner! Once home and all cleaned up, we "cleaned up" on the strawberry pie I made for dessert! And Lydia Mei.....much sweeter after a bath and good wash up!
