    I cannot believe what I just accidentally stubbled upon. I often put my big open mouth over my girls' and blow into theirs. I don't know why I ever did it but I do and they laugh hysterically about it when the air shoots out of their noses. Well lily is sick and has a clogged nose. We've been working on blowing it but she just doesn't get that yet at all! So just while we were cuddling I did it and I was surprised when snot shot out all over me. I grabbed a tissue and tried again but with The tissue blocking the blowout. Omg if you blow enough air the snot just comes right out! She can breathe and it was like a funny game to her. You just need an airtight seal lol. Move over nose Frieda hello the mommy biggie blower!

    @grits I was grossed out as an initial reaction but then my inner mommy kicked in. I haven't washed my face or changed my clothes. Nothing a baby wipe couldn't fix ;)

    @rabbitw4 nice! I'll keep that in mind for when mine decide that kind of thing is a good idea.

    Hey, if it works, it works.

    For me it does. Just ask my old bf from high school. He blew instead of kissing and oh boy did he cop it! I snotted ALL over his face. It was a truly awesome moment, I tells ya! =)) :-&

    More people would learn from their mistakes if they weren't so busy denying them

    Well the girls dont like it anymore :( pretty bummed about how fast the novelty wore off. Especially since I've been doing it for so long and they've always loved it. As soon as it benefits them tho... It's like the devil. Sheesh.
