We are waiting to hear back from the body shop on how long it will take. Our insurance covers $1200 for rental cars, so we should be good. Will keep all informed of any major issues. It looks like we are in good shape for the time being. Thanks to all who have called, emailed, texted, facebooked, twittered and otherwise gotten in touch with us regarding your care and concern. We very much appreciate and value each and every one of you.
Micah shows no signs of even knowing he was in an accident. Tiny bit of bruising around his seatbelt visible if you really look. Shannon still have a decent iPod shaped bruise on her hip and a small seatbelt bruise.
I think the worst part of everything is we ended up with a minivan and now its raining. I miss 4 wheel drive and I look like a soccer mom driving it (especially when I wear my juicy couture pajamas).
They are fine. No one was injured. Unless you count our car. It didn’t do so hot. Totally kept the passengers safe though. Shannon has a bruise on her hip from her iPod being in her pocket and Micah bit his tongue, though it is still fully intact.
Our insurance is good so we are not too concerned long term, but we do have some immediate issues we may need your help with. We have a second car, but it is a small economy car that won’t fit both car seats in the back. Our insurance will cover a rental for up to $200, but looking at prices that means about a week. Once we know how long the car will take we will have a better idea of how this will impact us, but my experience says that we will probably need some help with some errands after a while. Also, if anyone is a member of one of them fancy frequent car renter clubs and can get a good deal on a mid size (not to be greedy, but we sort of need one with a big backseat for the two toddler sized car seats) that would also be super awesome.
Shannon is pretty shaken up and upset so a word of encouragement for her would be nice and maybe not grilling her too much on the details. (;
Thanks all for being super fantastic and what not.
