Just like his Uncle

Last night Hunter was sitting on my lap a eating few jelly beans I had put in a small bowl for him while I read a magazine. He jumped off my lap and looked panicked. I can't remember what he said to me to make me realize that he had just stuck one of those jelly beans up his nose, but I immediately flashed back to a story my mom has repeatedly told about my brother when he was about Hunter's age, sticking a bean from a game up his nose. Ironic since yesterday was my brother's birthday!

I tried several times to get him to blow it out, (how we got the bean out of my brother's nose) but each time he would inhale first. I thought since I could see it I would try to extract it with tweezers, but that totally freaked him out and he started to panic even more. His nose also started to bleed, so I tried one last time, I put a tissue over his nose and told him to blow really hard. Two tries and the jelly bean popped out!
