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!

20 Month Recap....

Good heavens,Remington! I am not sure where to start...we had sooo many fun things that occurred during your 20th month! This month was roughly from 11-19-11 through 12-18-11. During this time, you enjoyed your first official haircut, Thanksgiving, a family day with your Sisters, Nieces, and Nephew (Collette, Jackie, Stephanie, Aryana, and Ares); a Father/Son day at Thanksgiving Point's Dinosaur Museum, a visit with Santa Claus, and many self-induced adventures. I have decided to choose my favorite photos from each event....I am thrilled we have so many pleasurable memories and expriences. I love you sooo much!

Love Forever and X Infinity,

Mommie.
