Henceforth and forever
Heidi August 11th, 2011
Yes! It is time to give new names to my little wigglers.
New names that are the real nicknames we are currently using. That way, I can ease the load on my neurons as they try to fire and retrieve the correct name for each child– no matter if I’m talking, tweeting or blogging.
Also, I wanted to even out the royal ranking. :)
Thank you for understanding!
I now dub thee: Sir Brother
Boots started calling him “Broda” a few months before Baby was born and it has stuck. Now we all call him Brother and I like it. :)
I now dub thee: Sir Boots
He’s still Boots around here, so he gets to keep his name the same. :)
I now dub thee: Sir Baby
Yes, henceforth and forever, we will call him Baby. Or. Until Boots thinks up a different name for him and then I’ll change it. :)
And there you have it!
Brother, Boots and Baby.
Now, if Boots come across a “lamily” picture and stops to label it (one of his many adorable pastimes), you will know exactly who he’s talking about!
Or.
If he stubs a toe and comes to tell you which one he stubbed, you’ll understand him when he says, “Mommy Toe!” or “Broda Toe!” or “Baby Toe!”
I love how he has named his toes! Too cute :)
I love the “named toes” thing too! :D
That reminds me – one time when Matt was little (4 maybe?) he was running around and hurt his big toe. I asked which toe he got an “owie” on and he said (while hopping around from the pain), “Right – here! On – my – mom-my – toe!!” ;) LOL
The new names are great…we’ll see if I remember them as well as Boots does (with 28 grandchildren, I’m lucky to get the real names let alone the nicknames!)
