Up the Nose
Yesterday this little dude was complaining about his nose hurting. After awhile we asked more about it, and he told us he'd put a Lego piece up his nose!
We shined a flashlight and confirmed there was indeed something foreign up his nose. We tried the block-a-nostril-blow-through-the-mouth trick, and it didn't work. So I made an appointment with our doctor. (There's a neat tropical fish tank in the waiting room.)
He couldn't get it out, so he sent us to the ENT in the office upstairs. The ENT sprayed some numbing spray then extracted the "object" with a long, skinny hook thing.
Turns out, it wasn't a Lego, but a small craft googly, wiggle eye covered in snot and blood. What?! How?! Why?? Oh well, at least it came out alright.

On the ride home he said, "I don't like googly eyes! They're scary!"
