Boys will be boys.

On two different blogs this week here & here I read about kids putting things in their ears. "Boy, I'm glad neither of my boys have put objects anywhere they shouldn't" Well, I shouldn't have thought anything so silly. I never asumed that I was immune from silly activities like boys shoving things where they dont belong but I was more relieved that it hadn't happened yet. Then it did. Last night I was cleaning up after dinner while the boys were still eating in the hope that they would eat enough to get some dessert when Lion informed me that 'I've got bits up my nose' and so it began... He had shoved some of his rice up his nose...

First we did the blow into a tissue. That got a little bit out. Lion said there was more up there so we kept going. I was careful not to damage anything but I certainly wanted to put a healthy dose of fear into my little Lion, out came the cotton buds and tweezers. Turns out there wasnt anymore up there it was just that irritating feeling left by the original bits that was still making him think there was more (we hope). I did however find that he has a very weird thing up his nose that I must ask the doctor about his 4 year old needles. It is a part of him, I know because he didnt like me trying to get it out with the cotton bud.
So, do you think he'll be shoving anything up this little piggy nose anytime soon??? Yeah, I think he will as well.

I do have to give him credit for a creative way of making me think he had eaten more than her really had.
