So we were having a pretty good day Braxton was off at school. We had just gotten home from a run, and it was time for naps. But, Logan didn't seem very tired I decided it would be fun to do a little cooking. Brownies, Ummm my favorite. Logan helped make them and then also licked the bowl. Since we were cooking I decided to go ahead and make some meatballs for dinner. Cooper was cooperating by sitting playing in his highchair. 
Around dinner time I put a pot of spagetti noodles on. Logan was upstairs sleeping and me and Cooper were playing on the floor in the front room. I thought I better check and make sure the water wasn't boiling over. As I walked around the corner, the pan of brownies I left on the stove to cool, BLEW UP. Glass was everywhere and then they started on fire. I put Cooper down and ran over to the stove trying not to step on any glass which I did and now I have a huge blister from being burned. I couldn't get to the flour so I threw a glass of water on the flames. The fire alarm was going off. Cooper was screaming. I was paniking. All and all everything ended up ok. It took me about an hour to clean it all up and now I have a really clean kitchen. What I did was turned on the wrong burner so it was cooking my glass pan of brownies instead of my noodles. I am so thankful I was not standing next to the stove with cooper who knows what would have happened. The glass was so hot it burned my floors and burned into my kitchen rugs.Moral of the story is, don't leave glass pans on the stove to cool while your cooking on it.

How scary! I wouldn't think it would do that!! I will remember that! One thing I learned is to not wipe the crumbs off the stove without making sure it is COOL! I burned my hand pretty bad a few months ago! Thanks for the warning!!
I am glad you and the boys are ok that must have been scary! We sure love you guys and I hope through everything we can still stay in touch. Erica you are a strong woman and I truely admire you in so many ways, so thank you for being a great person. Once again please let us know if there is anything we can do for you and the boys.
My sister did the same thing at thanksgiving dinner. We were all waiting for the rolls to be done and BANG the pan exploded from a hot burner. Luckily we weren't hurt though. Looking forward to lunch this week! Lisa B
WOW!! I am glad everything was ok. I found your blog through Sherice. Your boys are so cute!! Looks like you have your hands full! ;) Hope everything is going good. ;) Love the pictures.
Are you kidding me!! I seriously felt my anxiety level increasing as I was reading your story. That is just craziness. I am so happy that it turned out okay. Tear for the brownie loss. Thanks for the reminder.
