Yes! It's a picture of a diaper. Why, you might ask, is this diaper so important? Well, because it contains the dime Gavin swallowed the night before. I figured a picture of the package rather than the gift inside is more appropriate.
HE SWALLOWED A DIME! The little turkey. He scared the you know what out of me when he did it. He suddenly started choking and gasping for air. I had no idea what to do except flip him upside down and smack his back. He started to turn blue and was just drooling. I started to head for the door for our neighbors house, Jason is a cop and I figured he could help. As we reached the foyer he finally threw up all over the floor and swallowed the coin. YIKES. It gave me a heart attack. I hoped in the car and headed for the InstaCare but called the after hours number for his doctor while we were on the way. She called back before we made it into the hospital. She said that he should be fine and it would pass. It did less than 24 hours later. WHEW!
Holy scariness!! Kids always keep you on your toes!
ReplyDeleteNiki!!!!!!!!!! Poor mama, so now I get the deets of what was goin on that weekend-I had no idea. I bet that day tested the 'ole ticker. Ughhhh. I know that feeling- like when our Ky got stung by a scorpion when he was 7 months. It's a helpless moment-but that's when mama bear kicks in. I love how you documented it btw :) a funny ending to a NOT funny situation.
