Remington's Nick-names...

*Reme -- derived from your name, shortened.

*Duckie
-- because in one of the first ultrasound pictures we had of you in utero, you resembeled a little duck with plumage atop the head. Your face was turned towards what looked like a duck's preening feathers at tail's end.

*Son-shine -- because Daddy sings a special song for you, all about you being his Son.

*Little Him -- this moniker came about because someone was talking to you about your Dad. They said: "we know you love Him (meaning Daddy)." After that, I started calling you "Little Him."

*Squeaker -- from Aunt Joyce because you squeaked at her every time she picked you up.

*Little Man -- from Daddy whenever he sings to you or says loving things to you.

*Cuddle Bug
-- because you snuggle with Mommie whenever she burps you or whenever you are sleeping in her arms.

*Mommie's Tigger -- because as you are learning to walk and crawl you either get on your hands and knees and rock back and forth in a bouncing motion OR stand up and bounce, bounce, bounce. Also, you enjoy being bounced on the bed, or in your Exer-saucer. Sometimes you will stand on the couch, holding on to the back of the couch, me or Daddy and bounce away!

*Speed Racer -- because as you are crawling you move lightening fast!!!!!

*Mister -- Daddy started calling you "Mister" after you turned one year of age because you are maturing so fast. It is a nick-name that came about quite by accident...Daddy was trying to spit out Little Man, but somehow the words Mister Man came out and then got shortened to 'Mister.'

*Lil' Tornado -- because you are a whirlwind! You are interested in EVERYTHING and get into EVERYTHING...and as my adventurer...I think it is wonderful!

*Haaaaamm Sanwich -- because you have an amazing sense of humor!!! This nick-name started when you were 18 months old. You have the funnest personality!

Mommie's Return to Work...



Reme: This picture is of you and Daddy on May 13th, 2010. It is a milestone (at least for me) because it was my first day back to work. You were not quite at your 2 month milestone, but my maternity leave was 8 weeks (56 days), so I returned on a Thursday. I love how my two guys are sittin' up together to watch the news (you LOVE to sit up by your Dad). Your expression in this photo cracks me up! You made the face just after we learned that the weather was going to be crummy. I am just certain you understood that would mean no walks outside for a while. I can't beleive how much you understand and consolidate in your mind about your daily activities. It is written that babies learn the majority of their vocabulary their first year of life. I hope you have a wide plethora of verbiage to draw from when you express yourself...words are wonderful! XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOX...

Love Forever and x Infinity,

Mommie.
