Chad is now 14, but still hangs on to some of his childhood! When he was very young, he came down with a mouth disease that caused him not to be able to continue the use of bottles. So, we put milk in a sippy cup and added chocolate to entice him. He called it - "choc-at mulk!" For YEARS, he had to have "choc-at mulk" to go to sleep at night, so Grandma had a sippy cup at her house to use while he stayed at her house during Friday night youth activities or when we were out of town. She still has it and over the years, he would still pull it out to carry his drink around the house. Recently, when we went by to visit Grandma and Grandpa, in came Chad with that itty-bitty sippy cup filled with milk! I had to get out my phone and take a picture of this big kid drinking from his sippy cup! Some days they seem grown, others they remind you that they are not quite yet.

Ha Ha!!!! Redonia was that way with her sippy cup butttttttttt Mr. Trent was worse by his "paci". I think if he found one today he may still suck it! ha I know that Chad is just loving this post! Have a great weekend.
Brother Gene! That is awesome!I know Chad told me that he did that on Wednesday night, but the picture is absolutely hilarious! I do remember when I was 4 putting red Kool-Aide in my old bottle and drinking it, but since then i usually drink out of the big girl glass.
LOL!!!
What a "cut up". LOL
This is hilarious!! You need to have this on a slideshow when he gets married.
LOL! I do remember him having to have chocolate milk. If I remember right, it had to be chocolate syrup in the milk and not the Nestle Quik stuff. Anyway, it looks like he needs a little bigger sippy cup since he is a big boy now!
