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!

Train Track "House"...






Dear Reme:

You really love to build train tunnels, which you call "train track house's" with your Dad. You are pretty talented and truly help build some remarkable upward growing architectural structures that you incorporate into your train play. The photos in this post were taken 1-30-2012, and you and Dad built the tunnel displayed in the photos. It was built using wooden alphabet blocks. I think it is really cool and am soo glad you and Daddy got pictures. On this day you and Daddy were so engrossed in building that you and he stayed in jammies for the day (to stay uber comfortable). The pajamas you are wearing say: "Chillin' with Dad," which completely described your day of bonding -- the two of you were like two peas in a pod -- dedicated and determined to make an incredible train tunnel. I cherish how proud, dedicated, persistent, and determined you are Remington. I hope that you always carry those qualities into every aspect of your life. Even more importantly, I hope you always have interesting talents and hobbies that you make time for and finance. I believe that cultivating one's interests brings much happiness, diverts one from bad behavior, and is positive to enriching one's journey in life.

Love Forever and X Infinity,

Mommie.
