You're probably wondering what these funny pictures are all about! This morning Taden and Damian decided to go out in our backyard and play. Its 9:30AM and I'm in the house folding laundry when I hear Taden yelling for me. I go out there and he says, "Mom, I put something in my ear and it hurts!" So I ask him what he had put there and he just said,"Oh something I found on the side of the house, and its white." Okay, well I said let me take a look at it. Sure enough he has something pushed so far back there I could hardly see it. It was round and tiny! So I go to grab the tweezers to see if I could pull it out. The tweezers were to big! So I'm then thinking what else could I use that would be small enough to pull this thing out and not push it in further?? So I grabbed one of my bobbi pins and bent it straight so I could get it in his tiny ear. I tried the first time and of course Taden jumps and screams and starts crying cause it hurts! I'm feeling horrible cause I know how sensitive ears are hoping not to damage anything. Then I start thinking of all the people we know that are nurses or doctors and of course NO ONE is home or available! So I ask Taden if I can try one more time and he said, Okay Mom! So I had him laying on my knee in the sunlight so I could see into his tiny ear! He sat there so good and I just told him it tickles and that I was almost done getting it out! I couldn't believe how still he sat for me and needless to say, "we got it out!!" NO blood, no tears, just sheer success!!! So feel free to call me Doctor Hansen!!!! Just kidding! I'm just glad he is okay and its out! The crazy thing is, this wasn't the first time he has put something in his ears, and I'm sure it won't be the last!!!
