When Tommy was 2, he got a couple of toy alligators from grandma Arlene. When you would squeeze said alligators, they would make a
squeaky noise, that sounded like "
chicky". So Tommy started calling them
chicky gators. It was Tommy's favorite toy, and his favorite animal became the
chicky. Our family often still calls alligators "
chicky gators", and Tommy is 19 now. For a very long time, I mean for YEARS, Tommy told people he was going to be a
chicky gator wrestler when he grew up. I still think he should try it.
Anyways, the point is. He liked chicky's so much that grandma Rose made him a shirt with chicky on it, and wrote "chicky gator" over it.
Now that shirt fits Tyrel. Waaaaah, they grow up so fast. I so vividly remember Tommy getting that shirt, and now it fits MY baby.
When I told
Tyrel I wanted to see his shirt to take a picture, he held up the front so I could 'see it better'. Well, you can't see it better that way, but it was cute.
