How does One Do That?

So as we were taking the babies up to bed tonight, Claire sneezed. She sneezed right on Jeff's neck. When he reached up to wipe away the wetness, he wiped off a noodle.
She sneezed a noodle! A NOODLE!!
I don't even want to think about how about she got a noodle up her nose.

Ya, the things that go into little peoples noses is a little frightening.

In Lowes one night a few years ago, my 1st Child and Wild Child were fighting over a grill brochure they swiped. So the older one decided in order to keep her sister from getting it, she shreds it and stuck all those little pieces up her nose.

So sorry for Jeff's neck. Ha ha ha ha.

At least it was on Jeff's neck and not yours - ICU nurse and all - I'll take just about anything, but sputum and snot just a few things I absolutely hate!

I do better with undigested food then mucous, we won't get into the other things we have seen come out of noses! ok, that from a co- icu nurse! Way to miss getting on yourself!

Dude are you sure it was a noodle? Maybe it was just a really long booger. Could be...

Well, it's probably like how you can laugh out milk or pop or whatever you're drinking.
But ow.

That's funny...I think we've had rice come out before, but not a noodle!

Shannon said...

Ew! How does that happen?!?!

Ha ha, kids are amazing aren't they? I wanted to thank you for stopping by Hungary today!

Gah! You didn't say at the end of the post, but I'm really really hoping she ate noodles for dinner. Otherwise, well, there can be no otherwise can there!

Jeff said...

All right, a few questions on this post. We did indeed have pasta for dinner and Claire was coughing and whatnot during the meal, so I'm sure that was the time of implantation.

The slimy noodle was deposited on my shirt, not my neck. And I was more irked than disgusted by having her snot on me. We have triplets, remember -- they all had reflux to varying degrees when they were born. So I've spent a great deal of time wearing the puke and other fluids of my children.

My son once got 3 unsoftened pinto beans in his nose.

That was 7 hours in an ER I'll nevr get back.

Be grateful for the noodle and watch out for peas, pinto beans and any coinage.

You're the RN...isn't it in your psyche to figure out her physiology?! I think you could enter her in a talent show!!

HAHA!! That is too funny! I once choked a little while eating peas and sneezed one out a few hours later!
