CHAD

Chad cracks us up on a daily basis with the things that come out of his mouth, even when he stutters and it takes five second to say the one word he's looking for. Here are a few things he's said that we had to write down. In the past few months, Chad says that he loves things.... EVERYTHING. We say, "Do you want to play tee-ball?" And he'd respond, "Yeah! I love tee-ball! I love it!" One day Mary had to take Chad to the doctor so she told him to get in the car. He asked if we were going to the store and Mary didn't want to tell him yet where they were going so she said, "No, we're going.......somewhere else." To which Chad responded enthusiastically, "Yeah! I love else!" On another occasion Mark said to Chad, "What time is it?" (no, he doesn't tell time yet, but Mark was having a teaching moment,) and said, "Look, it's one thirty." And you can guess what Chad said next,....."Yeah, I love thirties!"

He just loves life and the simplest things! Recently, he's also been referring to himself as "Chaddy". We say, "Are you a monster?" And he says, "I'm not a monster I'm Chaddy." We only call him that occasionally so we figure he wants to be like everyone else in the family. Daddy, Mommy, Alli, and......Chaddy.
