The Grapes of Wrath...or the Wrath of some Grapes....

So, Mo had a lovely play date with her old friend, V. The girls were born 10 days apart, and have know each other FOREVER! It is always fun to have them play together.

Yesterday, both girls were upstairs playing in Mo's new playroom....and having a great time. Michelle and I were hanging out, drinking coffee...and talking. We went up to check on the girls, and we realized they were chewing gum...... but wait, we don't chew gum, and don't have any in the house.

On closer inspection, we discovered they were actually chewing these little grapes from Mo's kitchen set. They had picked the bunch clean, and most of the grapes were gone. After a brief interrogation, the girls fessed up that they had SWALLOWED the grapes. We think they each ate about 10 grapes.

Calls were placed to the doctors.....and we were told that the only thing we can do is wait and watch......what goes in the body, must come out of the body. So now were are on poop watch.

There is a part of me that hopes pooping these grapes out is not a pleasant experience. I want her to have a 'natural' consequence for this action. It may be a lesson she remembers!!!

One day, I will remind her of this.....maybe at her wedding!

Oh no!! I'm sure she'll be fine though... it must've been a pretty soft plastic?

Hopefully the only pain she suffers is from you hanging this over her head in future years, lol...
