Mom His Head is Stuck

Mom Paxten's head is stuck....those were the words that Paige said to me a few weeks ago while I was in the shower. Paxten had gotten one of his feet stuck in the kitchen chair the night before and he was freaking out about it, but it was easily freed. So I thought that this was the same situation. I yelled for Parker to try and get it out so I didn't have to get out of the shower. He came back in and said no mom it is really stuck in the computer chair. So I hurried and got out of the shower and found Paxten screaming his head off and trying to pull his head out by himself without success. I tried a few times and realized that is wasn't going to slip right out. I grabbed some oil and tried to loosen his head with the oil, and that didn't work either, it just made a big mess! Meanwhile Paxten is crying and crying and there isn't much I can do to console him. I was just trying to hold him and trying to stay calm and let him know it was going to be alright. I even tried to push him the rest of the way through, but it was too tight on his chest and I didn't want to break one of his ribs. So I called Matt, who was out doing lawn work and told him the situation. He was working with his dad that day, so they both hurried in and Matt ended up having to saw one of the chair rungs off to get him out. After about 45 minutes he was free and very tired from crying that long. I felt so bad for the little guy, hopefully he learned his lesson not to put his head where it doesn't belong!!
