A running list of everything but your (real) name.

Everyday i talk to you and you smile back at me as if you know exactly what “stinkerdoodle” means. you think its funny, and most of the time you respond with a heartfelt laughter or crawling excitedly to us.

so the past few days ive been thinking about the long list of nicknames you and everyone else has for you and here im going to compile a list so that someday i can look back and laugh at the silliness.

You are:
Dude (most of the time)

stinker dude

stinker doodle

doodie

doodie butt

stinker butt

stinker boy

fat butt

vampire boy

crazy doodie

baby dude

cutie

cutie dude

cutie doodie

monkey

monkey butt

Mister baby

piggy

mister piggy

The list above is the normal  nicknames that have stuck  with us almost since the day you were born. except “vampire boy” came about and we say it to you in a singing voice because your teeth came in-fangs first. Its totally cute and i hope i always remember your first teeth, you are already cutting your middle ones and no longer will be our little vampire.

The list above is used 99% of the time throughout the week and your REAL name is only used when we refer to you outside of our immediate family, its a little bit weird and im sure we will all grow out of it soon enough. As for now, the only time you really hear your real name is when your singing bear says it in a british accent, so you might be a little confused when you learn that your name is not “Ahh-nuh”
