Max likes letters and spelling.  Even as a tiny baby I could spell his name and it would make him giggle.  Strange, I know.  Well now that he is getting older, he likes to spell things too.  He can spell his name and a few weeks ago he started spelling Mommy too. (I know he's just repeating what I'm saying and doesn't understand the phonics yet, but that's not the point.)  Anyway, Jeff was a little jealous that I taught him to spell Mommy and not Daddy, so I tried to even things out.  It didn't quite turn out the way Jeff expected. 
If you ask him to spell, Max will say "M-A-X-W-E-L-L Maxwell,  M-O-M-M-M-Y Mommy, D-O-D-O Daddy!"  I promise I didn't teach him that; you can't make this stuff up!
