I am so incredibly busy at work ('tis holiday season, ya know) I feel awful for not getting to blog recently. But this was the cutest thing so I have to quickly jot it down. Last night Tyler was quietly doing his monkey puzzle and he ran up to me. "Mama, what is in my ear?" he asked.

Fearful of his history of sticking peas and other small objects in his ear, I grabbed him and took a close look. "I don't see anything" I said, "what is it?"

"It's a sound," Tyler replied, "I hear a sound in my ear. Do you see it?" And so it occurred to me that Tyler's ears were ringing. So Daddy made the sound of a ringing ear and we asked if that's what he heard. He confirmed that's what it was.

On Saturday, UC Davis football beat Cal Poly! Shawn and I were talking about how incredibly good the team is this year. Tyler's new favorite thing is to butt in to our conversations with his innocent "Excuuuse me. Excuuuse me, Mama. What are you talking about?"

I replied "We are talking about UC Davis." To which, Tyler responded "Do I see Davis?" (get it--UC, IC, haha) we cracked up for a long time on that one. Maybe that story is best told instead of read but if I don't write it down I won't remember it. Keep checking back, I'll get caught up to my regular blogging soon!
