Dear Reme:
Tonight I am at my place of business and I can't help but smile whenever I think of you. You are maturing FAST; and you have a wonderful personality.
One of the things you have been doing lately to get my attention is to say: umm,umm,umm...it is so cute! I can imagine you saying umm,umm,umm...Moooomie!
You are also doing some pretty darling things when you are playing and in pretend-play-mode. You like to sit down to play with your train, making the chugga, chugga, chugga noises. I think it is awesome that you are emulating our play time...and Momma saying: "Chugga, chugga, chugaa -- Choo-Choo!"
You constantly want to hold cold ice-cubes in your hand, and so in between playing, you will run to the refrigerator and say: "ice, ice, ice." Then you suck on a small sliver of ice cube (I believe you are so interested in this because you are teething).
In the past you have been so independent, not really wanting to hold my hand because you wanted to run and explore, but today, you held my hand during all of our errand running and shopping. As your Mom I was so pleased. I don't EVER want to loose you!!! You are now and forever the ABSOLUTE love of my life! I am the luckiest Mom to have you as my Son.
Another thing you do in terms of independence is HAVE to feed yourself. You do a great job using a small fork and spoon. You often won't eat a thing until you have tried to pick up the food and feed yourself. It is adorable, and one of the many things I love that you do right now.
With all of the new things you accomplish on a daily basis, I hope you always have a sense of adventure and independence and are willing to try new things.
I love you dear Son...
Love Forever and X Infinity,
Mommie.
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!
