Poison Control

I had to call Poison Control this evening. Mason had gotten a hold of my prenatal vitamins and was able to open the bottle. I don't know how he was able to get it open, because I have trouble most of the time getting it open myself. Anyway, we noticed he had something in his mouth and then Adam told me the lid was off of my prenatals. He bit half of a pill and ate it. Gross. I can't stand the taste of the vitamins, but he apparently didn't mind too much. You would think he would be okay, since it's just a vitamin, but I needed to make sure for myself. After speaking with Poison Control, they told me that he is going to be fine and there is nothing to worry about, since he only digested a half of a pill. If he had taken a couple, he might start vomitting and have an upset stomach due to the iron in the vitamin. Atleast it was only a vitamin and nothing else.

I am so glad that Mason is ok! This is such a PERFECT GOD given remind to me that I need to finish toddler proofing our house. I started but didn't finish!

I took a Vicodin out of the bottle and put it on the counter so I could get a drink. I turned around and couldnt find it. AJ was eating something. I started screaming because I was so scared. Travis said saw the pill on the counter and by daddy instinct just put it back in the container. I felt so dumb. I always get a drink first now.
