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!

Christmas 2011












Pictures Bottom to Top: The First 5 Pictures = Remington Mesmerized by Daddy's Train, "Christmas Stash - Part I," "The Tree, Christmas Day 2011," "Remington Christmas Morning," "Remington and Daddy Christmas Morning (in Reme's Play Room)," "Christmas Stash -- Part II."

Reme, Christmas this year was soo much fun. You didn't really get into the idea of Christmas until the latter part of the day. The morning consisted of you opening all of your gifts from Santa. You got a little overwhelmed. Mommie went to sleep and when I woke up we finished opening presents from Mom and Dad and Grandma Halverson.

When we finished, I put some items under the tree until I had a better opportunity to properly put them away...you kept going back to the tree as if you wanted to open more presents. It was sooo, sooo cute! I absolutely loved your enthusiasm!

When your Aunt Joyce and I were little we would always open our stockings first, which made Grandma a little impatient,and I can totally understand why now. I am so glad you opened presents first and your stocking last!!! It was a blast doing it that way.

I hope we have many years of fabulous memories for they are certainly a treasure. May all of your Christmases be cheery and bright.

Love Forever and X Infinity,

Mommie.
