Tommy hasn't quite gotten the hang of "nicknames" and such. Anytime I end my request to him with "Baby" or "Buddy" or some such silly name, he always corrects me. "I'm no Baby... I'm Tommy!"
Lately, we've been teasing him with "Dude"... as in "Hey Dude", "What's up Dude?", etc. He always says, "I'm no dude." Now that we're visiting my parents, my dad has joined in. He calls him Dude a lot, too. Well, now Tommy is confused. (Aren't little kids fun to mess with?) Anyway, yesterday the switch began. After calling him Dude, Tommy promptly turned to my dad and said, "I'm a GREEN Dude" (he was wearing a green sweater.) Then later I asked him what his name was. He responded, "Dude". Poor kid... thinks we changed his name.

With blue candy dripping out of his mouth, I asked him if he was a "blue dude." He replied, "No, I'm Tommy-dude!"
