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!

Love You Forever...

My dearest Remington,

You are becoming quite the gentleman. You continually say: "Thank you, Daddy" or "Thank you, Mommie" when either of us has done something for you. You say: "bless you" to me, Dad, or Maxwell Tiberius (Max, our Cocker Spaniel) when we cough or sneeze.

You love our cats and are starting to be very gentle towards them. Dojah MaShae even purred as you were petting him today (you used to pull his tail and pin him like a winning wrestler).

Tonight, you asked to "go night-night" and grabbed Mommies hand and started the night-time routine of saying goodnight to Max, the cats, Rambo the goldfish, and all the rooms of the house. You wanted to see Dad in "Daddy's bed" but then said "own bed" and we went to your room. You snuggled into your bed and fell fast asleep.

I can't believe you are growing up soo fast sweet boy. I hope you are always polite, kind, caring, and have good manners.

Like the mother in the book Love You Forever: "I'll love you forever, I'll like you for always, and as long as I'm living my Baby you'll be."

I am proud of you and very besotted...what in the world did I ever do without your special personality in my life?

Love Forever and X Infinity,

Mommie.
