Like a scene from a horror movie.....
The following post was not meant for the faint of heart. Readers beware....
Thinking nothing of it, I sat Hannah on the floor this morning to grab a few cheerios for her to snack on. No big deal, I let her crawl around on the floor quite a bit now. Up until today, I was fairly confident in my ability to keep the floor clear of any objects that should not be within reach of an infant.
I will assuredly have nighmares for the rest of my life about what happened next.
Staring in horror and disbelief, I watched as my precious little Princess Hannah opened her mouth and out fell a June Bug.
A JUNE BUG!!
Even now, hours later, I'm still cringing at the thought.
On a related note: I attended a graduation party today that was held outside in a wooded lot. While I was sitting with Hannah talking to Geoff and Scott, Geoff absently flicked a cricket from his head onto my arm. June Bug moment fresh in my mind, I completely freaked out and shrieked like a moron jumping out of my seat, flailing my arms wildly as everyone stared on.
ugh!
I'm so embarrassing.

I would go into meltdown mode if a cricket was one me.
I heard June Bugs are high in protein.
Ummm.... thanks for the visual. Hey at least you saw it fall out of her mouth and not her putting it in her mouth and disappearing. That's a plus. Crickets creep me the "F" out! I would have freaked regardless of the previous junebug incident...
Moments later the cricket ate the June Bug .... which was in turn ate by little Thomas. Feel better now? HAHA! ;-)
I hope Princess Hannah wasn't in your arms when you began flailing them wildly.
June bugs are a horrible thing to have in one's mouth. gross gross GROSS!!!!!!!! I once became caught in a blizzard of june bugs which flew out of the lawn which we had hoped to sit upon to watch 4th of July fireworks. We ran to the car under siege - and found an entirely different spot to watch the show.
