i have been packing this week. the house looks crazy, but i swear i know what is going on with every random pile and mound. i have 24 boxes packed with precision. eli's room is done. bonus room - done. i'm about 75% done with the kitchen. it is a time consuming and interesting process.
i took a break from the packing process on monday to take ida to the ER at the children's hospital. there, we discovered she had been doing some packing as well. the doctors pulled a black WESTJET foamy earbud cover out of her left nostril. i think it had been up there at least a week and a half. it was one of the grossest things i have had to witness and help her through. the pictures above were taken about 15 minutes after the removal. a hospital popsicle made things all better. we met eli and cj for pizza to celebrate. i guess that was our 4th of july celebration now that i think of it. who says you need fireworks to make the day memorable?

When I was in college I worked at a daycare during the summer. It was torture. Anyway, one day this kid came, he was a regular and he smelled kind of funny. We checked his bum, his feet, his hair. We couldn't figure it out. The next day it was worse, he seriously stunk. He said his nose was bothering him and he kept scratching at it. I smelled his nose, yes I did. Wowza!!!!!
I took him to the walk-in. The doctor stuck some fancy tool up his nose and started pulling out rotten, mouldy pieces of paper towel.
I am gagging at the memory.
NASTY.........Can't wait to see you guys!!!!
yum, yum, how do you know it was a Westjet foamy bud? Reminds me of the time Cole rammed a plastic ruby up his nose.
Wow, that must have been interesting......... Once when Angie was about that age she had a tiny bandaid one her finger and stuck her finger up her nose and the bandaid stayed. The Doctor had to use one of those tweezers to get that out, but it wasn't there very long. Happy 4th......We love you, good luck with the packing, sounds like you have it under control. Love, Kathy
Well, since we're all telling "foreign object up nose stories", I know of a kid who stuck a cinnamon heart up their nose, SPICY...
