Little Tarzan

Man it just tears you up when your kids get sick, but Kyle has thankfully provided his own little comic relief.

Ben has been sick since Sunday so we were holding our breath to see if Kyle would get sick and much to our chagrine, he had a fever last night. High enough that the nurse recommended we come in to see the doctor.

When we got there he wanted to do all the normal things including checking his ears. The first time he looked he couldn't see a thing. He said the ear canal was hairy and full of ear wax. Great! Now we get to try to clean this sick little boys ears out which involved me holding his body and the doctor working on his ears.

Needless to say, Kyle got really mad, but then he eventually settled into cry that kind of went up and down over and over and just kind of letting us know he still wasn't happy, but he knew he couldn't do anything about it. When we finished the doctor said, "You know, he sounds a little bit like Tarzan"

I just had to laugh, because a) he was right and b) Mindy had just said that to me that morning.

Poor guy was finally getting calmed down and we started laughing at him. Thankfully, he took that as a compliment and it helped cheer him up a little.
