You may be wondering why I have a picture of my sweet son and these sweet dried cranberries?! On Monday morning Caden wanted a snack (when does he not?) and since it was still 9am I told him he could have something healthy. He opted for Craisins. I was busy on the computer registering him for soccer when all of a sudden he screams and starts crying the cry when you know something is WRONG. So I run over to him and he's got a fist full of Craisins and some how, through the freaking out tells me that he has one up his nose! I get him to calm down somewhat and he says that he put a craisin up his nose to help get his boogers out. Why do kids (boys) think that putting something more up your nose is going to clear it out?! Who knows!
My first initial thought was let's go in the bathroom and see if blowing your nose will get it out. We tried several times and nothing but blood. Now I'm a little nervous and start thinking that we're going to have to take him in because it must be lodged way up there. Luckily Clint was working from home and was able to calm Caden down enough for me to look up his nostril and sure enough there was a craisin right there. I know that you hear to not do anything because you may cause it to go further in, but I could see it right there and figured with Clint holding him down I could probably get it out with tweezers. Luckily I was able to get it out and we didn't have to spend the morning at the Dr.'s. I think Caden learned his lesson and hopefully we won't have to encounter this again!

Oh, that is SOOOO something Olivia would do! Lucky you were able to get it out! Hannah and I had a good laugh over this!
Kayli did that with a noodle once. I totally freaked out! She still remembers it even though it was a LONG time ago. You probably don't have to worry about that happening with that one again!
That is hilarious!
