Poison Control

Many of you may recall the story of Seth swallowing the magnetic marbles. Well, I was on the phone with a friend of ours when he actually swallowed the things. In fact, the reason why I didn't tell him to get the marbles out of his mouth was because I was attempting to practice proper telephone etiquette and wait until I was off the phone to yell at my kid. HOwever, once he swallowed, I forgot my manners altogether, and yelled into the phone:

"Did you just swallow that?"

and my friend just mumbled a confused "um....what?...noooooo"

and I screamed again

"Did you seriously just swallow that?"

I did apologize to Aaron for yelling in his ear, and he apologized for laughing at me.

And then I hung up and called poison control.

Luke shoved a raisin up his nose when we were on vacation and by the time we got it out it had swollen to the size of a grape. It got scary for a few minutes there too because he was having a hard time blowing it out.
