Toilet Auger= $8
Gro-beast Alligator= $1.00
NOT paying a plumber $100+= priceless.
I told him to smile...that it was for Kaden's posterity... but he said he didn't want Kaden to think he was happy about it.So now you know how to remove an object from the toilet drain-
#1Use wet-vac to remove all water/waste from toilet bowl and tank. (Plug your nose!)
#2 Rip toilet off the floor, make lots of noise, spend 2 hrs trying to push object out of drain with various every-day household objects.
#3 Place toilet in the bathtub, go to home depot and purchase a new wax ring (for when you replace the toilet), and a "Household Toilet Auger"
#4 Sleep
#5 Wake up first thing, remove object from toilet per auger directions, insert SIGH of relief.
#6 Replace toilet- feeling very proud of handyman skills.
The End
(whew!)

Gross! Way to go Tyler- I think we would have gone with the plumber!!
What a hilarious nightmare!!!
I am so proud of you - nice to know someone so handy is so close to me :)
...a grow in water alligator: clever kid!!!!
OMGosh that is so funny! I'm glad you guys figured it out and that Tyler was able to fix it! hehehe Poor kid probably feels bad. I can't say that we've ever had to deal with things put in toilets. I have had to deal with keys in garbage cans though.....
Good job Tyler. I love having a husband that can do things. It save so much money.
I'm so sorry! What a crappy way to spend the day. Love that you got pictures though, you'll look back at it and laugh (I hope)
Heeheheeeheeheeehee. This is WAY to funny. Toilet repairs "stink". I do not know what is worse... the removal of objects or that nasty wax ring. I think it would be funny to work at home depot to hear all of the "so how would I go about________, because my child did_______?"
Yeah Kaden felt pretty bad- everytime Ty would come downstairs he'd ask if he got it yet- when the answer was 'no' kaden just said "oh.." and got the saddest look on his face. We didn't get mad at him, these things happen...
