100 Weeks

The other day my inbox included a mom365 email with the subject being 100 Weeks Old:  What's up with your toddler?  I find it funny that these emails still come through counting Chase's age by weeks. I often think to myself can I finally stop saying he is so many months old when he hits two next month? So in honor of Chase's 100th week, I'm going to try to squeeze in 100 tidbits about the little man before he wakes up from nap.
