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!

Month 8 Recap, November 26 through December 18th...



Remington, Where does the time go? Starting at your 7 month point where you started to be soo active, it seems that we are busy every day. Time for Mommie is flying! This month, your 8th month, was an adventure! Mommie stayed up for two days to ensure that your home would be decorated for the Holiday's. This month saw you get on your hands and knees and bounce or stand holding onto something and bounce -- all the bouncing and the fact that you like to practice it has led me to add a new nickname for you. It is "Mommie's Tigger." Although you were an active bouncer there was no crawling or walking. You would get where you wanted to go and get what you needed by rolling or by bucking backwards while laying on your back. The latter movement was pretty innovative and cute, if you ask me.

You were also very creative in getting the things done that you though were important -- especially with play. Your favorite toy this month was a Playskool puzzle with kogs. The kogs moved clockwise with music and had all of the primary colors. We would play it for hours...Mommie would say: "round and round and round it goes,where it stops nobody knows!" You would take the kogs off and put them back on and put other toys on the center kog.

Other things you liked to do: play with your dinosaur, watch Elmo, read with Mom. It was a fun and productive month!

Love Forever and x Infinity,

Mommie.
