Cereal up the Nose

This is the byproduct of a trip up Aaron's nose. I'm sure it was quite the horrible trip for this poor little cereal. It's never been up a slimey place like that before. If only it knew that a piece of bread made the same horrible fate just two days before.

I'm not sure why Aaron has discovered that shoving things up his nose is fun. This piece of cereal was WAY up there too. Fortunately for Aaron his mom is an ER nurse and knows a trick or two.

So here is a tutorial if anyone has a child that sticks something up his/her nose: Lay your child on the bed. Close the nostril that isn't plugged with fun treats. Go in as if you were going to give your child a kiss. Then put your mouth over there's and form a good seal (as if you were to give a breathe doing CPR). Blow hard. Don't worry, you won't hurt them. Sometimes you have to blow more than once, but it's not guaranteed that they will hold still for more than one blow. The object (and sometimes a face full of snot) will then come out, probably onto your face!

Hope none of you have to do this!

Aaron loves "If you're happy and you know it clap your hands". We sing the Italian version and he is so cute when he does it!

Paolo was watching Jordan while I was napping the other day. To pass the time he decided it was really funny to make Jordan look like Alpha Alpha. I have to agree. It was really quite funny.

Jordan is starting to take his first steps, but he'd much rather crawl still.
