Because Hubby works in a hospital and also goes to school, he's exposed to a lot of cooties. Which means Baby and I are exposed to a lot of cooties. A lot meaning we had a house full of sickies six weeks ago and we have a house full of sickies now. Fan-freaking-tastic. Which means I've been getting a lot of practice de-snotting Baby.
Let me tell you: not all boogies are created equal. And you can't really pretend like they are. You need different boogie tools for different boogies.
Remember that boogie bulb everyone told you to steal from the hospital when your baby was born? They can keep it.
When you need to suck humongous boogies out of a tiny baby nose, you need a snot sucker that a) you can see into and b) uses more force than that little bulb thingie inflating. Yes, the NoseFrida is more expensive, but it is totally worth the price! It's so rewarding to see boogies get sucked out of Baby's nose... and he loves it. Which may have more to do with me calling myself a big weirdo in a goofy voice than the actual snot sucking...
Is it weird that I enjoy getting Baby's boogies?
But I digress. You also need an Oogie Bear for smaller boogies. Think of it like an ice cream scooper, but for boogies. Mmmm, ice cream. I'll have to make some once the cooties subside and my taste buds can thoroughly enjoy things again...
How do you feel about de-snotting other human beings? Are there any other tools you think I need to add to my boogie-fighting arsenal?
