Hope's nose + soy nuts





Hope was upstairs today, apparently with a small bag of roasted soy nuts. Well, all of a sudden she is crying and saying her nose hurts. I go up. She looks as if she is having an allergic reaction. I just knew what she had done. But, as you can tell from the above picture, she has a tiny nose, wouldn't there be a bulge? After about 20 sneezes, I thought (wishful thinking) maybe she didn't shove a soy nut up her nose...maybe she is allergic...to dust?? So, I sit her down to give her a strawberry. She has stopped crying and saying her nose hurt at this point so...then all of a sudden the soy nut appeared. I squeezed her little nose, and pop out it came. How I hate kids putting things up their nose. Hayden went through a stage (he did it 2x I think) where he put Legos up his nose. It reminds me of a true story. I was babysitting this family down the street. They were black, the only reason that matters really, is that the little boy put chocolate chips up his nose. A bunch of them. Ahhh, good times.

Why do kids do that? Sure glad you were able to solve that without going to emergency. Her picture is sure cute showing that little nose. She is her Grandma's girl.

Remember when brigham did that? The ER doctor plugged the opposite nostril and blew on his mouth, and the rock popped out the other side.

glad it wasn't her EAR!

I hate that. I have never understood the fascination that kids have with shoving stuff up their nose. Glad it didn't get serious, anyhow. Yuk.
