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!

Lending a Helping Hand...

Remington,

Today, our neighbor Mrs. Drais, brought her 15 month old daughter, Rachel, for a visit. You were soo excited your muscles tensed up and you started to shake. Once you had calmed down, you walked directly up to her and said: "come." Then you bent down to look directly into her eyes. It was the darn cutest friend moment EVER!

You got little Rachel to go down your slide, but while you were waiting for your turn decided to help catch her. Although Rachel is younger and shorter than you, she is a cute little chunk and probably weighs a little more than you do. To watch you want to be so helpful and teach your friend NOT to be scared going down the slide, to try to help catch her so she wouldn't fall was one of the cutest and kindest things I've ever observed.

You love being social, and I think you will always be a leader and helpful to others.

I am very, very proud of you.

Love Forever and X Infinity,

Mommie.
