Run to the doctor!

Friday before Halloween we had our first swallowing scare with our son. He was playing very nicely & then went dead silent. When I checked him, I found out he had reached the mini windowsill suction hooks for our plastic animals which hang upon the windows. The animals were there but the four suction hooks were gone! Our son was chewing them whole!

When I only got three out & couldn't find the fourth anywhere I had to call the doctor. They squeezed us in for his first X-ray to make sure he hadn't swallowed it. He was so good lying still for the x-ray when I told him they were taking a picture. He even smiled, said cheese & asked for a second one.

Much to mine & everyone's relief, he hadn't swallowed it. Nope... instead he brings it up to me a few days later like "here it is mama!" I never will know where he hid that!
