Tuesday evening around 9:30 pm Matthew and I were laying in bed watching TV. We were suddenly alarmed by our fire alarms going off in the apartment. We both ran into the smokey hallway and instantly went to Ian's room. The heater in his room was smoking and it smelt like melted plastic. Matthew took the heater apart and found a couple of Ian's hot wheel cars in there, and a old cell phone that was not ours. It looked like it has been in the heater for quite awhile. I have no idea why we hadn't smelt that cell phone burning before. Ian was luckily not alarmed by anything that was going on. He started laughing when I picked him up, and cuddled with him for quite awhile. What a blessing that our fire alarms worked, and we were awake to hear them. The whole event was a little scary. We have made sure we check the heater every night now before turning the heat on in Ian's room.

That is so scary! Sorry if it was our cell phone :(
Oh Rachael, the hot wheel cars were the reason for the whole ordeal. That cell phone was there for quite awhile without causing any problem :)
