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 Eve and Our Traditions 2011



Reme, this is the outfit you wore for our Christmas Eve festivities. Every year you will open pajamas and three gifts to represent the gifts given to the Christ Child by the three wise-men.

Thereafter we will proceed with our Christmas Story, "The Twenty-Nine Cent Christmas" and the Christmas Pie, whereby we recite: "Little Jack Horner Sat In A Corner Eating His Christmas Pie. He Stuck in His Thumb and Pulled out a Plum and Said: "What a Good Boy Am I.""

For Christmas Day from Mom and Dad you will always get: Something you want, something you need, something to wear, something to read; and a box of your favorite cereal.

You and Dad will always work together to get a Christmas breakfast made for our family...this year you and Dad made pancakes -- boy were they yummy!

I am sure more traditions will be created and developed over the years, and I look forward to all of the artistic creations you will make to add to our beautiful old country charm Christmas tree.
