It's Officially Started...

You know, the phase where your child starts sticking random objects into random orifices. Fabulous!! I can tell already I am going to LOVE this phase! Last week, Emmy was drinking a juice box, and insisted on pulling the straw out and sticking it up her nose. After warning her twice, I finally had to take it away for fear of injury. Today, she came running into the room with her hand on her ear, screaming. I pulled her hair back to discover she'd shoved a safety pin (closed, thankfully) into her ear. (Where the heck did she find that?!) It was stuck, and a little tricky to extract. She cried for a good 10 minutes after that, and cried again when I told Keith about it later. Her finger is perpetually up her nose now, and it's not exactly the picture of femininity. I'm just waiting on pins & needles to find out what she'll put where next!

This reminds me of when Joey stuffed a toy soldier's severed arm WAY up his nostril at about that age. I was on the phone with the children's hospital nurse on call with one hand and holding Joey down with the other as John extracted the toy from the hysterical child's nose with tweezers. Ah, good times. Good luck with this phase, it can get challenging!
