Kitty Litter won't Kill You, but.......

.....boy, is it gross.

Last night, Wes found Ava just as she was putting a piece of clumped (i.e. "used") kitty litter into her mouth. Luckily, she didn't swallow, but paid as serious price as we began the cleaning process. It took one mini-toothbrush, 3 washcloths, a hand towel, 6 wipes, two parents and all four hands to get the nasty stuff completely out of her mouth. Poor baby. She cried and cried but it had to be done.

Poison Control confirmed that she wouldn't be harmed. After putting Ava to bed an hour late (with a raw mouth) Wes announced, "I'm making a very strong Long Island Iced Tea". And that was the end of that.
