Doctor Tywer

Hello again to all my friends!  (Quick, what show is that from??)  Straight to business today.

• We got to see Baby Maisie and the boys again (and Aunt Heidi).  Tyler is still OBSESSED with Maisie.  He would sit by her and "guard" her like a dog.

Don't worry, I'll watch Maisie.

• I guess it's only right Ty was guarding Maisie because he act like a dog a lot.  From crawling around and barking to taking his dry cereal out of its container and putting it on the floor so he can eat it like a dog.  I really should clean our floors more often. 
• At the farm, Ty and the boys were on fire!  They all take turns picking on each other, helping each other, tattle-telling on each other, etc, etc, etc. Overall though, they play together great!!  I personally enjoy how ornery they all are.  :)  From Freddie looking and Grandma and then intentionally dumping his juice all over the table to Tyler jumping on the couch and then stopping when we walk in the room and blaming it on Freddie to Gus  filling a sink with toy cars and water then blaming in on Freddie.  Poor Freddie...I think I see a theme.  Good thing we are I am smart and they can't pull the wool over my eyes! ;)
• Ty also got a haircut.  Dad has been requesting it for a few months now, but I just kept forgetting when we were around his hairdresser (Grandma Wheat).  I finally remembered because he was getting Albert Einstein looking hair....

Albert Einstein no more!

• After the farm, we went to Ark City for a baby shower (and a Cowley Basketball game).  Ty was not impressed when we told him he wasn't going to the baby shower for two reasons: 1) It was for Stephanie & Jeff. 2) He needed to see the baby, even though I told him the baby wasn't there.  He got over it fast enough because he got to stay with Grandma Karen.  
• He did go to the Cowley Basketball game with us though.  He was pretty into it.  He was going to leave with Grandma before the game was over, but he kept INSISTING that he needed to see Dane more.

Watching the game intently.

• Grandma Karen has this little cow statute that Ty likes to play with.  He named is Maisie.  She even had to sleep in his/Grandma's room.
• One Wednesday when Grandma Karen was watching Ty, she asked him if he wanted to go to McDonald's for lunch.  He asked her what that was and she explained it was where they could get chicken nuggets or a cheeseburger.  He got excited and said he wanted: Chicken strips, a banana, and ice cream.  (They sometimes get Braum's so he was most definitely referring to their food.)  Grandma took him to Braum's.  
• You know how most kids recognize the McDonald's Arches?  Ty recognizes the Braum's Ice Cream Cone.  Anyone that knows me well knows my sweet tooth is never ending so I love that he knows good ice cream!  :)
• In the morning Ty-Guy usually watches a show or two so I can get ready. One morning he was whining about not wanting to watch whatever was on, so I was looking through the guide and saw "Dora" was on.  When I asked him if he wanted to watch it, he got mad and said, "NO MOM!  Dora is a girl show."  I wasn't sure I understood him correctly so I asked him what he said, he really wasn't impressed he had to say it twice.  
• Ty takes a bite of his lasagna and says, "Mmmmmm. This is dewicious."
• Tyler, the Stinker, found a present that I had gotten for a friend's son (I seriously bought it over a year ago--->bad friend).  The present was a bucket with bath/water squirt toys and was in the closet that I keep the wrapping paper.  When Ty found it I was folding laundry and didn't notice he had it at first.  I figured it out when I heard tissue paper.  I went to see what he was up to and he proudly held up the buck, sketchily stuffed with tissue paper, and said, "Mom.  Look what I got you.  My birthday present."  I laughed, said thanks, and held my hand out for him to give it to me and he said, "Um. I think it is my Birthday."  Guess who has new bath toys?
• Tyler got tubes in his ears in November 2011 and we go to check-ups for his ears about every 6 months.  When we went in December, we made a check-up in 8 weeks (last week) because it wasn't looking good.  When we see the doctor, he writes on his tablet and does his check-up on Ty.  After we saw the doc this time, we went to a waiting room to get a hearing test and then to schedule surgery.  As we were in the waiting room, Tyler got out his Magna-Doodle and starting carrying it around saying, "Me Dr. Tywer.  I give you check-up, Mom."  (Anything that looks like a tablet now means he is a doctor.)  In case you were wondering, surgery is Wednesday.  We are getting tubes put back in and also his adenoids taken out. I can remember how much fun it was when he was waking up from his anesthesia <insert eye roll and sarcastic snort> so I'm really looking forward to that.  Seriously though, I'm not complaining because this is way minor compared to other surgeries so I am just counting my blessings.

It's rough being this awesome.

So much more to tell, but this old lady is tired!  Have a great week!!!
