That's number for Poison Control, just in case you need it. We needed it twice this summer. Once when Joshua got a hold of my flavored calcium supplements. Fortunately they only cause constipation (which they didn’t). The second time was when Tobin decided to flounder around during a diaper change involving butt paste and managed to lick some straying Boudreaux’s off his hand. It clearly states on the tube to call poison control immediately if ingested. So, Kurt made the call to see what we need to do. Again, only causes constipation if a lot in ingested. (why they make it sound so imminently dangerous on the tube I don’t know …) The best part about this call was that flustered Kurt told the operator he had been changing his son’s six month old diaper. Now that would be toxic!
Ah, good ol' Mr. Yuk. Sadly I ordered these stickers two years ago and never got them. We'll have the number memorized soon enough.

Didn't you have to call poison control when Joshua ate the paint in his room??? Or was that before summer?
Ahh, yes that was pre-summer.
we had to call poison control when megan was around 6 months because she had gotten into the diaper bag and was sucking (like a passey) on the open end of a desitin creamy tube! she had it all over her mouth and inside it...and again they said that she should be fine. yay for diaper creams!
I take flavored calcium supplements too...and when our friends from northern VA came to visit with their 1-year-old daughter, you can bet I hid them. (no offense)
