ohhh *bugger*

That's about what I thought - lol.

Good to hear you are all basically OK. Just a drama that you don't really
need right now (its bad enough when you're not pregnant and have no kids
in
the backseat).

Exactly!

I hope everything gets sorted out really quickly and your knee doesn't
give
you any more trouble.

Thanks

Kids were fine, good testament to their carseats.

Sophie, since they were in an accident you'll have to get new carseats
now.
Many insurance companies will pay for them.

Yep we'll check that out.


I'm glad everyone is ok.

Thanks!

I'm still not thrilled, now at the stress of dealing with it all (paperwork,
phone calls).

You know I actually thought about that - since the
carseats have been in an accident, do I need new
ones? I think I'll call my insurance company back
and ask. Lewis is in a convertible carseat facing
forward, and the other 2 in booster seats that are
just the base to make them taller (they have the
seatbelt across their lap and the shoulder one in
front of them).

Since the booster seats aren't attached to the car in any way, there was
no force exerted on them during the crash so I can't see why they'd need
to be replaced. They don't provide any restraint; just positioning.
Lewis' seat definitely should be replaced though, even if you can't see
any damage.

I'm so glad you all are OK.

I said after the accident that I don't think cell phones are
distracting at all compared to children. So I think driving with
children in the car should be illegal g!

I tell ya, after driving with 3 kids in a *CAR* I think *that*
should be illegal. I had no idea how far away the noise of their
talking and fighting was with them in the back of the van. In a
car they drive me insane.

I remember when I got my minivan after driving the three kids around in the
back of my old Nissan Altima. I said I never knew how peaceful it
could be driving with kids in the car. Moving Julian and Aurora into
different rows was, by itself, worth the price of admission g!

I got my MPV back last Thursday and it's been *sooooo* nice! I miss the $500
deductible I had to pay for the repairs, though :-!

I just want to drive the
rental then get my van back and pretend it never happened - lol.

I hear that. It took about a week for me to get my van in for repairs (it
was still running fine, just looked bad) and I kept saying I had to clear my
schedule and get it repaired so I wouldn't have to keep being reminded of my
own stupidity!
