Miss Morgan and I got a take a little field trip this afternoon... to the Instacare. We had some friends from St George stop by and visit. While we were visiting Morgan let me know that she had something up her nose. What? After inspecting it, we could see that she had what we thought was a little green plastic bee-bee. We tried to get it out with tweezers- no luck. We got a baby nose sucker tool to see if that would work. Struck out again. We finally decided that it was not going to come out, and that we needed to find someone who actually knew what they were doing see if they could get it out. So off we went to Instacare. It is a little embarrassing trying to explain to the doctor that you have no idea how she did that when you were sitting right there. Morgan was not excited about having to have someone digging up in her nose. It took four of them to hold her down. Finally the Dr. got it out. It ended up being a green glow in the dark little pony bead thing. Nice. They gave her this sucker afterward, so she got over the crying thing pretty fast. So much for my Sunday afternoon nap! :)
Everyone make a mental note here- if this ever happens to you, 2 of the nurses, and then the doctor told me the home remedy for getting things out of your kids nose if they are stuck- plug the nostril that does not have anything in it with your finger. Then do like you are going to give mouth to mouth, and blow it out of their nose. Thankfully we did not have to get to this point, but how great to know that now if we ever have anything like this happen again. Hopefully she has learned her lesson, and the others are too old to try that.

She is a cute little girl! We are glad she is alright and thanks for the idea for future reference.
We can't believe how much she has grown since we saw you guys last!
We're glad to hear that everything come out all right (in more ways than one)! Dad was pretty worried about them pushing it up even further. The home remedy sounds like a great idea- everyone take notes ! Tell Miss Morgan that Grandma and Grandpa Payne asked about her. We Love You ALL! MOM
Morgan is getting so big and her hair is so long! Looks like she loves that sucker. Glad there's a home remedy for that.
Why do I feel like this would be a good thing for me to know!? I do hope (the feeling) isn't a foreshadowing of things to come.

Maria, I seem to remember a certain little gutter baby getting a cooked pinto bean stuck up her nose. It flew across the kitchen when she sneezed. Aunt Pat, am I remembering right or is this an old skewed memory?
Glad to hear Miss Morgie's OK!
James put a bead up his nose but we were able to get him to blow it out while closing the other nostril. Crazy what kids will do!
This will be a great story to tell her when she is older! I am glad they got it out without too much difficulty! She is so cute and I love her hair-do!
This is Ilene for real now. Thanks for the tip on the home-remedy for stuff being stuck in the nose. Chances are we'll need it someday. I'm glad Morgan is happy again!
Reading mmottesen's comment. . .Was that "gutter baby" you with the pinto bean? That's hilarious if that's how it happened.
that was a great story..not to make fun or anything but it made me smile and laugh because the little ones are always keeping us on our toes, aren't they? hahaha! glad to know she's alright though! I love that pic of her just smiling like nothing ever happened..it's too cute!:)
that is so something my 3rd child would do! thanks for the info on getting things out of the nose...probably useful to have with4 kids!
