I am still hoping I will have my project done by the 25th for the make-over open house, but I find that when your two-year-old decides to eat Vick's vapor rub from the jar, that silly old Poison Control wants you to go to the ER a.s.a.p. and have her watched for seizures for 4 hours.
You don't really get a lot done.
The good news is she's okay with no seizures and no ill effects... And dare I say it? Decongested.

Oh my! Glad she's ok. I'll never forget my first who decided that potpourri was candy. But now I will never forget that it's not poisonous.
ReplyDeleteYikes, I can't imagine Vick's would taste very good. Why is it that that doesn't seem to stop a toddler from eating something? Glad to hear she's ok. Thanks so much for visiting my blog!
ReplyDelete:) T
OH Goodness!! I am glad she is ok. How scary that must have been!
ReplyDeleteI am glad your daughter is ok....but you know what? I can remember my Granny eating Vicks......again, glad to know it's all alright.
ReplyDeleteSuzanne
ohmygosh....bless her, I'm glad she is ok. Scary big time, I bet. And Vicks, ewwwwww, how could she get past that smell? Decongested...you are so bad. LOL.

You and your little one are really lucky. Vick's almost killed me when I was about her age...(long story)...that's why I never dared to have it at home! So, so, so happy she is OK!!!!
ReplyDeleteOh no!! I'm glad she's ok!
ReplyDeleteOh my, glad she is doing ok, I can remember the olden days when people ate vicks to cure what ails them...that makes me old, very old!
ReplyDeleteHow terrifying! I'm so glad she is Ok.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh so glad she is alright. My 2 year old ate a mushroom in our yard when we living in Monterey CA... called poison control... with a very long ER visit... it was horrible but thankfully the forset ranger expert on mushrooms was on stand by at the hospital.... all turned out well. to this day she will not touch a mushroom.
ReplyDeleteLuLu
Thank God she is OK! I remember those days when my boys were younger--we called Poison Control 4 times in 6 months at one point. Scary stuff!
ReplyDeleteI once thought that my mom's perfume looked mighty tasty and decided drinking it would be an appropriate use for it. A night in the hospital didn't seem to do the trick as I ended up there a week later after thinking that my Grandma's medicine looked good too. This was all last week.
ReplyDeleteNah, just trying to interject some additional "decongested" humor!!
;0)
But little ones are a hoot, aren't they? It's really all you can say about it when it all works out in the end.
Blessings to you all!
Oh Jen, I'm so sorry but I am kind of cracking up... it must have been your decongested comment. How scary though! And what drama at the ER! Glad to hear she and you are OK now. Yes, that is a little bit of a deterrent from decorating!
ReplyDeleteForgive me for a little giggle...my great aunt (83 years old) eats it all the time! She's a bit whacky! Glad your little one is OK!
ReplyDeleteMy son drank Mr. Bubble when is was young..oh my..it was green and I swear he burped up a bubble.

Awww, bless her heart! I'm glad to hear she is OK. I have a 4-year-old and she is always trying to test me and see what she can and can't get into. They can be a handful!
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear that she is ok. I am glad that all my 2 year old eats is the dog's treats. Much to the dismay of the dog though. My lovely sis told her they were hard cookies and she loves them.
ReplyDeleteOh, sweetpea, my daughter drank furniture oil polish when she was about 3 or 4 years old. I think it had an effect on her brain the year she turned 13! Not sure....... ;-)
ReplyDeleteLOL,

OOOHHHHHH NO!!!! GLAD SHE IS FINE!

Oh my goodness. I bet that was scary. I’m happy she is ok. My brother drank a whole bottle of Pepto when he was little guy. That was many, many, years ago but my Mom still tells the story.

BTW, love the piggies... {sigh}
ReplyDeleteTake a deep breath - you deserve it. Things somehow have a way of turning out. You will remember this with humor someday, I'm sure.
ReplyDeleteAwww, I am so glad she's OK!!
ReplyDeleteAw poor little one...and poor mommy! I need to put latches on my bathroom cabinets. I've been putting it off since we moved in. I'm glad your daughter is not sick from it!
ReplyDeleteMy goodness...that couldn't have tasted good! Especially glad she's okay. How scary was that minute.
ReplyDeleteHave a good day.
Sandra
Oh. my. goodness. Vick's, huh? What do kids think? I'm so glad she's ok!!!
ReplyDeleteYou cracked me up with the decongested comment.
-FringeGirl
Oh my goodness!!!! That smell - how did that seem "tasty"? Bless her heart!
ReplyDeleteOH That must have scared you crazy!!! Glad she is okay! nancy
ReplyDeleteI am glad she is okay... we have had a trip or 2 to the ER for poison control. Turned out to be nothing, but you have to go right?
ReplyDeleteYour blog is super fun to read!
I'm so glad she's ok! Wow! How scary for you!
ReplyDeleteWow. I'm sorry this happened. I'm so happy your baby is okay.
ReplyDeletehorrifying!
ReplyDeleteyou'd think that one little lick of that nasty stuff would stop her from eating it {though, I've never tried...maybe it's yummy :) }
So so glad she's ok. and decongested.
oh girl, I saw that little braclet attached to her foot and memories came flooding back to me, I am so glad she is ok..that can be really scary...and does vick's taste good, if it does they need to change that ASAP....I will forgive you if you don't make the 25th makeover party, you have a WAY better excuse then your dog ate your homework ~ give that baby a little extra squeeze. XO
ReplyDeleteThat's a new one - I am glad she's OK! Posion control comes in handy - just called them about my 1 year old eating toothpaste, and yesterday my 4 year old swallowed a penny. Now I am on poop watch. I'm not getting much done either! :)
ReplyDeleteOh dear. The poison control has been called about 4 times for my 3 year old son.
ReplyDeleteBest of luck.
JEN!!!!!
ReplyDeleteOMG!!!!! I just popped on your blog. I'm so glad she is ok. I just want to know what makes anyone want to keep eating that stuff after the first nasty bite. I mean come on....kids toothpaste is bubble gum flavor. You are gonna have to watch her like a hawk in high school. She is one brave girl. I definitely want her on my team!!!!
XOXOXOXOXO
Oh my heart!!! Now that's a new one...leave it to the little ones to keep you on your toes.
ReplyDeleteGlad all is ok.
Take care
Janet
Wow, glad she is okay!! I guess that would cramp your day just a little!! Very scary! I remember when my daughter ate fish food and I called Poison Control. Luckily I didn't have to go to the ER just watch her encase she started blowing bubbles!!
ReplyDeleteoh my, I'm sure that was just so scary. I'm so glad she is ok!
ReplyDeleteI am so glad she is fine! What a horrible day.
ReplyDeletePraise God that she didn't get hurt.... but that gave me a chuckle~ The little stink-pot. Your very lucky, our poision control center is no longer in service. Can you imagine that? There is a recording telling you to dial 911 or just call a hospital.
ReplyDeleteI am so glad she is OK, probably scared the bejezzers right out of you! I once mistake the generic sore muscle rub for hemarroid cream! yep, I just squirted it right on up there. I danced for a couple of hours! poor baby.
ReplyDeleteI know I shouldn't be laughing but..."And dare I say it? Decongested."
ReplyDelete::snort::
I'm so glad she's ok! And I'm so happy to be back at your blog after my little breaky-break. I have piles of things in need of painting gathering up at the shore house, so I think of you (and the pages I've bookmarked on your blog!) often. :-)
