Andrew Meyers….Baby Saver
So I’m not really sure why I forgot to mention this in my last post…but apparently I’m a baby saver and no one cares. I went over to Joe’s niece’s birthday part on Saturday…she turned one. Anyways everyone was hanging out by the pool…well not everyone but I was and we had some babies with us at the steps so they were tall enough to stand. So one of the babies decided to take one step too far and ended up going under and natural instinct kicked in and I went in and grabbed him…yes with all my clothes on. Here’s the real kicker cell phone = in pocket = bad. Grant it I probably had enough time to take my cell phone out of my pocket before getting in but I didn’t think about anything else except to go in. And if you think breaking my cell phone was bad here’s the worst part of it at all. I bring the kid back up and the parents told me I didn’t have to do that and he would have been fine. WHAT?! He was probably at oldest one…2 feet tall at the most in a 3 ft pool completly underwater. Yes I got him in probably less than 3 seconds, but I don’t know of too many babies who go under water without some kind of panic setting in meaning his heart rate increased (and if you know about the heart rate of babies compared to adults it’s already much higher)…the higher heart rate and adrenaline rush means you need more oxygen meaning you need to breath…and what happens when you breathe underwater? You drown…no bueno. So basically I lost a cellphone with no gratitude at least from the parents. Anyways after that incident the party was pretty fun ended up going in the pool myself with the older (by older I mean like 8 year olds) and did the whole big brother like thing with Joe doing monkey fights and races and all that fun stuff. Kinda made me realize that I need to start swimming again because just from that stuff it was a huge workout. Okay enough about the weekend two exams today whew! Neither one of them were bad at all though pretty easy.
