A penny saved (but where is it?)

We are both starting to learn the value of money, mostly change but hey, money is money, right? So here we are goofing around in Mateo's room and I find another penny. My piggy bank is all the way in my room and I don't want Mateo to grab it from me, especially because it is most likely his penny. I'm wearing a diaper so I don't have any pockets. Where can I hide the penny? I know!! I'll just pop it in my mouth and ... oh oh! Now, how am I going to get it back? Oh good, here comes Poppa. He doesn't look too impressed though, but he'll know what to do.

Huh? It will come out WHERE?!?!

Momma flipped out and called the Health Services to see what will happen to me. Poppa said "Feed him a quarter and see if he makes change." Funny guy! Apparently everything will be OK in a couple of days according to the nurse. We just have to keep any eye on my "coin return", whatever that is. Guess I won't be doing THAT again.
