The woman who let her four year old son snarf up a tic tac, then gave him a bloody nose trying to get it out with saline, and now isn’t sure exactly where and in what condition the tic tac is. Hopefully, dissolving quickly.
Yes, that would be me. I’m currently making up for this alien abduction-like procedure by allowing him to eat two bowls of mint chocolate chip ice cream. Here’s to malleable short term memories and the magic of frozen milk and sugar.
First week as a stay at home mom – holla!
Thankfully it’s also the last day of my wine and dessert-free month. I’m off to the beach tomorrow and since my ass can’t get any smaller in 24 hours, I may just cheat and have a glass of red tonight.
Back to blogging hiatus now…

I saw your twitter and thought it was your child. I would assume it had dissolved. Probably burnt really bad though.
Well, it's not like you lined up the tic-tacs on a mirror and encouraged him to Hoover them up Lindsay Lohan-style! That's what kids do, they put things up their nose. We still think you're mom of the year. :)
Enjoy that glass of wine and the beach!
Congrats on making it through your fist week…it's no easy task!
I'm with Robin. :)
I didn't know you were an official SAHM! Congrats! I've been a bad bloggy friend. I've taken a hiatus of sorts [unannounced – life happens].
Enjoy your red wine tonight, and enjoy your hiatus!
Holla! Oh you make me laugh! Thank you.
Drink the wine! Just do it! Hope the tic tac comes out ok.
oh my sounds like your life is a bit adventorous mine are all raised and teens but oh they still are adventorous
stopping by from blogher
Welcome to the club!!
I almost took my oldest ( a baby at the time) to the Dr cuz I was SURE he ate one of my earrings. I OBSCESSED about it for a week. The day I decide to take him in..I found the earring behind the toilet…..*sigh* ah the joys of spazzy motherhood.
Have fun on vacay!!!
In my book, there aren't too many problems that mint chocolate chip ice cream won't fix! Enjoy your seaside wine sips!
Mmmm…ice cream fixes everything. So does red wine. I hope you enjoyed a glass last night!
Enjoy the vacation!
Oh, that made me laugh! Holla back at you, I hope you went for the red wine!
This reminds me I need to blog about our latest ER visit. I'll post it just for you, Kate. Then at least you'll have some competition for the award.
Tic Tac up the nose…you deserve some wine. And possibly some of that ice cream too.
Your posts are just too funny :o) My cousin tried sticking a carrot toy up my Aunt's nose when she was a toddler…at least all's well that ends well right? Hope you are enjoying the beach..and who-hoo!I finished your painting!Hope you like it!So fun to paint!
Holla!
great post, have a blast!
He has many many years of memories ahead of him to smother that one.
Hope you're enjoying your beach vacation.
This is pretty funny. Poor little guy, but I bet the tiny moment was worth it for all that ice cream.
Glad I found your blog, hope your vacation is going well.
Sounds like you deserve that glass of wine having made it through your first week as a SAHM! Hope you have fun at the beach.
Oh thank God it wasn't my kid this time.
omg, hope the little nose recovers :)
Oh my….I wonder how long it will be until I'm dealing with a item stuck up the nose!?
I hope you had the wine. :)
Oh boy… I totally would have done the same if my son inhaled a tic tac! My boys love tic tacs and I feel so terrible giving those to them! So you're a SAHM now? Good luck to you!!! ;)
Hilarious! I can totally relate (and the 2 bowls of ice cream will definitely help).
Thanks for stopping by my blog – glad I just found yours!
