Sunday

After general conference was over we went up to Bellevue to visit grandma and grandpa. We had a lot of fun and did some exciting things. Cameron and grandpa read the book Olivia and then decided to make the monster that Olivia makes in the book to scare her brother.



Cameron and Julia also helped grandma color her Easter eggs. I forgot to mention to her that coloring eggs over carpet wasn't the best idea. Blue dye was spilled all over the carpet. Luckily for us it was grandma that spilled it and it seemed to come out of the carpet okay! Good thing the carpet is green to begin with.


On the way home that night we were about a minute from home when Julia says to me "Mom, the Lego that is stuck in my nose is almost out!" I said "WHAT LEGO!" The kids had been playing with Legos at grandma's house but that had been 4 hours earlier. When we got home, we laid her on the couch and I took a picture thinking it was sort of funny. That is where the laughing stopped. She had the Lego so far up her nose that we couldn't see it and everytime we tried to get it out with the tweezers we pushed it up more. We tried to have her blow her nose but she doesn't "know how" and for the life of us couldn't get her to do it. After contemplating going to the ER and spending the night in the waiting room we tried one more idea. We used a pump that can blow air or suck air. We stuck it in her nose and sucked the lego out. All in all it was about a 30 mintue ordeal. It was a small bead like Lego that she thought "Hey, why not stick this up my nose?!" Gotta love kids!
