The many names of Zachary

Since day one, we have given Zachary many names. So we never forget them, here is a list...

*Baby Zachary

*Zachary Chien

*Zachary Chi

*Zacha

*Zacha Chi

*Zach

*Zachy

*Z-Dog

*Z-Chi

*Z

*Chi Chi


Zach's most used nickname is Chi Chi. I call him this a lot of the time. When asked his name, he says: "Chi Chi." When asked :"Where's Chi Chi or Where's Zachary," he points to himself. So, he knows that he is both Chi Chi and Zachary and he responds to both. Although, he always refers to himself as Chi Chi. He says things like..."Chi Chi shoes, Chi Chi binky, Chi Chi pillow, Chi Chi car." He also yells "Chi Chi" when he sees himself in a picture. Very cute! I think Chi Chi will be his nickname for a very long time. We'll see how he likes it when he's older.

Halloween Fun!

We have been busy celebrating Halloween with Zach. Our little party animal went to two parties and trick or treating with his good friend Quan. Every time he sees his spider costume, he says: "Party!"

Trick or treating could not have been any more fun with Zach and Quan. We spent the evening in Quan's neighborhood. The boys got a big kick out of being free to run around outside at night. They would climb the stairs at each house, knock on the door and Zach would say: "Trick, Treat." After each hand was filled with the good stuff, they would say: "Bye-Bye" and be on their way. At first, Zach didn't even know he was getting candy. He has never actually had candy before. So, he happily put the treats in his bag and went on to the next house. After pizza for dinner, we went back out to hit some more houses. At last, I let Zach try some candy. His first bite was a chocolate bar. Well, that was it. From then on, at each house, after saying "Trick, Treat," Zach would quickly say "bite." Needless to say, he ate his fair share of candy on Halloween. Now, we are back to no candy. He's way too young to already be addicted to candy :)
