The day after the <a href=\"http:\/\/dondailey.wordpress.com\/2008\/09\/09\/rock-and-roll\/\">rock incident<\/a> Gina said she thought there was something in her other nostril. We had had corn that night and Gina allowed as how there might be a piece of corn in her nose. I looked but didn&#8217;t see anything and told Gina she was being too sensitive in light of recent events.<\/p>\n<p>For the last several days, Abby has had a stuffy nose and a hard time sleeping at night. But she never mentioned anything being in her nose. (She had tried to tell Gina about the rock in her nose and it took a couple of hours for Gina to figure out what she was saying.) After Abby&#8217;s bath tonight Gina tipped Abby&#8217;s head back to look at a sore on the side of her nose. She got a good view way back in there and spotted something white.<\/p>\n<p>We got the tweezers and a flashlight and laid Abby on the bed in the guest bedroom and attempted to extract the item. We didn&#8217;t know it was button at the time and she wasn&#8217;t talking about it. She screamed and thrashed around. I realized we were in front of the window. Anybody looking in would be justified in thinking he was seeing two grownups trying to lobotomized a baby through the nose. We moved to the back bedroom and closed the blinds.<\/p>\n<p>I put on my spelunker&#8217;s headlamp so i could get a good look and two tries later pulled the button out. She claims there&#8217;s nothing left up in there, but I want to get her head x-rayed to make sure.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The picture above is a kinda close-up of Abby&#8217;s nose.
