Girl Swallows Nickel!!

I've gotten so much done the last 2 days. Thanks to Brad's sister, Theresa! She was coming through yesterday & took the 4 younger kids with her for the week. We'll get them either Friday night or Saturday. I already have all their rooms completely packed up & their carpets vacuumed & shampooed.

I called to Theresa's house today & Flagan was babysitting. All was well on the homefront. A couple of hours later Flagan calls & says, "Aunt Terri, how do you get Cooper to take a nap?" So, we talked for awhile about that & hung up. A little while later he calls again, in a minor panic saying, "Chloe swallowed a nickel & she threw it up but there is blood in it!"

Flagan got initiated into babysitting today with kids who would not nap & vomit. I think he handled it very well--probably better than I would have! Chloe is fine by the way, the nickel must have hurt her throat though, with her tonsils being taken out recently. Aunt Theresa's keeping a close eye on her, so I'm not worried.

This picture of Chloe makes her look so grown up. What a big girl! Who now knows NOT to put money in her mouth...
