It's my doody as a mother!

Nearly a year ago I blogged about the fact that my children tend to swallow money and put things like beans in their ears.

On Wednesday, this particular idiot child of  mine ate a quarter.  The coin made it safely through his esophagus and, after hours in the Emergency room,  it was seen on X rays in his stomach.

The Doctors determined he didn't need surgery, so he was allowed to eat.  Here is a picture of my piggy bank son eating food the nurses got him.

They sent him home so we could "monitor" his GI tract. 

In other words, we are currently on poo patrol.

It's Sunday folks...seriously?
 
I cannot explain why my blockheads children do this.

Freud would say they are stuck in the Oral-Fixation Stage!

This is the stage which manifests in chewing or eating objects such as coins:
Thing One swallowed a quarter this week and Stud Boy swallowed a penny years ago.

Humans stuck in this stage also talk excessively:
Darling Daughter not only swallowed a quarter she also talks and talks and talks.

And a third characteristic of the Oral-Fixation Stage is alcoholism: 
Let me just say, if you had to sift through doody for 5 days, you'd call it medicinal!
