This just happened to me as well! Quite nerve-wracking but I felt much better after I called poison control and the lady said as long as he swallowed it and wasn’t coughing or choking he’d be fine. She suggested lots of fluids and snacks to hep it pass quickly.

Thank you for posting! We recently had our AC repaired and ever since little wads of yellow insulation have been falling out of one of our vents. I just pulled a little blob of it out of my baby’s mouth. Thankfully, she didn’t ingest any, but I was very relieved to read your post!

These suppliers usually make a point of offering a large variety of products from different manufactures so as to give the customers a wide range from which to choose.the insulation suppliers ought to be willing to help and give customers advice on the best products from which companies which can do a particular job. If you are businessman that deals in large scale building then they will certainly be with you all the way giving you advice and making sure that you always come back. They also offer services of high quality, support to all their clients, products which are of high quality at affordable prices and any other service that you might inquire of them.There are many people who have homes and do not know the first thing about energy saving benefits that can be attained by insulation. In such a case it would be wiser to talk to these insulation suppliers

Thank you for this! My stomach dropped to the floor when I thought my daughter ate insulation. She is eight though yes I said eight. We are redoing our bathroom and she was in there playing with it supposed to be brushing her teeth. Yes I asked her about it. But it looks like cotton candy. Yes I’m sure she absolutely knows better than to put it in her mouth. But I’m a mom and my brain goes right to the worst case scenario ever. I did go to the manufacturers website and it does list all the side affects, dangers and warnings. Your blog made me laugh and feel reassured. Thank you for that.

[...] a better alternative. One day, as I browsed the crunchy mom blogs, I came across a great post about reusing old butter wrappers to grease cooking surfaces. Basically, you save the paper wrappers from sticks of butter for later use. You store them in the [...]

Joy,

I just saw your reply. I hope you got connected with RR for more info about Jack. It took them a while to get back to us too. The reasons we didn’t qualify were money and my husband isn’t old enough (not more than 15 yrs older than Jack). Honestly it just wasn’t the right timing for us. We pray for Jack to find a family, every, every day. Morning and night. I’m not that familiar with Russia because my experience has always been with China and that was when my parents adopted 8 years ago. I definatly feel God’s calling for us to adopt but my husband says we need to wait until we can buy a house next year. Still I check RR frequently and read adoption blogs as well. May God bless you in your journey !

I have realized some new points from your web-site about pc's. Another thing I've always presumed is that computers have become an item that each home must have for many people reasons. They supply you with convenient ways to organize households, pay bills, shop, study, pay attention to music and in many cases watch tv series. An innovative solution to complete these types of tasks is to use a notebook. These pc's are mobile ones, small, effective and mobile. Drop by my webpage . thanks..!

P.S. Sara- would love to talk to you. I’m sorry that it didn’t work out for you. That must have been very disappointing. Thank you for praying for Jack. I cannot describe how much I would like to be his mom. I am thinking about him all the time. I have added St. Petersburg to my phone’s time zone set so I can always see (without doing the math ) what time it is for him, and think and pray about what he might be doing during that part of his day. We have two (younger) biological daughters. My husband and I have always planned on adopting (we’ve been married 11 years), and now that we feel that we’re done having bio-kids, we discussed recently how soon we would pursue adoption. My husband said that he thought when our younger daughter was in kindergarten would be a good time (she is 2.5). I was okay with that until Sunday night. I have been looking at Reece’s Rainbow kids for over a month. God has slowly been cracking my heart open to the idea of a special-needs adoption. The kids on RR are all so precious, beautiful, and heart-breaking, but there wasn’t one (nor was I exactly looking for one) that said, “It’s me! Come get me!”. With Jack, that’s how I feel. Now there is urgency. Oh, and we don’t have a homestudy or anything yet. I actually don’t know that much about the process of adopting from Russia. I always thought we’d go the route of African adoption. Anyway, I know about the three visits, the $33K, but not so much else. Anyone who can point me in the next step, I’d greatly appreciate it! Just kind of jumping in head-first on this! I did send an email into Reece’s Rainbow for more info on Jack. Just waiting to hear back. I think they’ve had a busy day with World Down Syndrome Day.

P.P.S. Pretty unrelated, but Hannah, I was a cloth-diapering mama, too. I’m one of those Crunchy Christians. And my dad is a tea-partier.

One more thing- prayers for my husband’s heart are appreciated. He wants to adopt but understandably is concerned about the practical (money!) side of things. I know that God will make a way for us if this is what he’s calling us to do… but my husband hasn’t had the benefit of reading all of the adoption blogs with miraculous stories of financial providence, like I have. Anyway, prayers appreciated! Thank you!

Hi, I am so glad to have found this (via Project Hopeful). I initially saw Jack on Reece’s Rainbow on Sunday, and have thought of little else since. I am VERY interested in adopting him, and my husband is getting there. Anyway, I am just drinking in these other pictures of him- he is so precious! I pray pray pray that our family may adopt him, but regardless if it’s us or someone else- thank you so much for fundraising for him! Is there some way you can email me or I email you… I’d love to discuss further any insight you have into his situation. Thank you! Joy.
