Nova bank~

Here is Nova's Piggy bank~

Here is Nova's Train bank~

And here is our NOVA bank~
Yes folks, today Nova swallowed a penny. Last night we had emptied the pig, (we keep it up on our entertainment center downstairs), and Nova put the money back in.

Then we went upstairs and got ready for bed, and he wanted to empty the train bank as well. So we emptied and refilled the train.

Evidently we missed a penny from the pig in the living room and he found it!!

I was gone doing hair for a wedding party. Kevin calls me and says, "I think Nova swallowed a coin." He said Nova came up to him and said, "you get the money out?" and pointed to his belly. UGH!!! (Insert parental hysterics here) Then he pointed to his esophagus area and said "I broke?" It must have been lodged there, hurting the little guy.

He had been eating raisins, so even if Kevin saw him do it he wouldn't have *known* he had anything else! Thank God he told daddy, and that it went down!

Off to Urgent Care they went. Yep~ looks like a penny, and it was already in his stomach. (Whew!)

Guess I'm on poop patrol tomorrow........

We just feel so blessed. He could've easily choked.

We're still in awe that he even did this! He will not try new foods, and many times will literally gag when trying to swallow something.

You just never know what these kids will do! If this is the worst that ever happens I will be SO happy!
