Saturday evening I was stringing beads for bracelets, rings... girly activity for my girls.
M (age 2) was sticking her hands in the beads and stirring them...
A little while later she started touching her nose. Then she complained about her nose.
My anxiety started to get active.
It was 20 min to 10pm - when the Urgent Care center closed.
I called them and begged them to wait for us - it takes at least 15 min to get there.
We were in our elephant pajamas from Christmas. I didn't even grab my bra. I was floppy.
I went up to 85 mph - on accident. I ran from the car with M... to be greeted with a dark reception area.
My heart stopped.
I yanked on the door anyway.
HALLELUJAH! They were there. They waited. They thought M was so cute.
The Doctor looked in M's nose - she said she put a bead in there.
He didn't see any beads. He said it would eventually stink and irritate her if there was one.
I paid $25.00 and drove like a maniac... with pajamas and floppy boobs... all totally worth it.
I slept like a baby.
ps. of my girls... M would likely be the one to get into this kind of trouble...which is why I totally took her seriously... meanwhile, she just liked going on a trip to see the doctor.

I don't love it when they start putting things in places...glad she was OK.
Jooj put a bead in her nose while I was sick with the flu, on a weekend which means ER on the Army base. I said a prayer and got out the tweezers. Thank heavens for prayers.
Keep us posted on the stinky nose!
Oldest put a bead up his nose, I got it out with the tweezers...he then turned right around and did it a SECOND time!!
Sissy g put a deflated balloon up her nose, I think I was able to get it out without taking her in. She's been the worst for kid type injuries!
dalene - seriously!
La Yen - you are like Macgyver
b. - I think we're safe - it's Wed and she hasn't seemed irritated ...and nothing is stinky - well in that vicinity. ;-) Kids... have brain-damage... (I love Bill Cosby)
that's hilarious. glad she's okay.
