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!

You -- A Delight! (Wednesday, May 5, 2010)...



Dear Duckie: You are growing sooo fast! During your play time today, while you were on your tummy, you couldn't stop gazing at your Exersaucer -- so I decided that although you aren't quite sitting up by yourself, that we'd see what would happen when you were placed in it. YOU LOVE YOUR EXERSAUCER!!! You were cooing and gurgling and just plain talkin' up a storm at the toys on it. In the photo I took, I captured you saying: "oooohhhh." In so many ways my heart strings were torn today...because you are maturing faster than I expected/wanted. However, I am delighted to see you happy, content, playing and developing. Although in the back of my mind I know you will mature, grow-up, age, it hit me HARD today that you won't be my baby forever. Right now I am so fortunate to be able to enjoy you. Every sound you vocalize, every gaze you display, every expression you make is an utter delight. I love you so very, very much!

Love Forever and x Infinity,

Mommie.
