I've decided to rename my children...

First of all, I love my kids names.  And if up to this point you have been reading my blog, or if you (are lucky enough to..) know me, you know their names as well.  And, I'm sure you think they are fabulous.  I'm not bragging here, because I really did not name them.  My hubby did.  So I cannot take credit.

Since beginnig to blog, I have been unsure about how much of myself to reveal, and in what way to do it.  But recently, I am happy that I have many new readers that I have met through the blogosphere (who knew?).  Up until now, I am sometimes hesitant to use my kids names.  Now, more time has passed and I have found my blogging voice.  I feel more comfortable about talking about the family, and so I have decided to rename them.

My oldest daughter, for future blog posts will be called by one of her favorite names, The Boober.  Here she is modeling after a haircut.


And my littlest, cuddliest munchkin will be affectionately known as The Hot Pocket.  This is also a nickname that she embraces. What a face!

So, there it is.  Now I can talk about them freely and not worry about it.
Whew...one less thing to stress about!
Happy Weekend.

You know I use a sweet pseudonym for my daughter. It's the way to go for me. Plus, I call her Little Bird in for reals more than I do her "real" name. Her therapists use it, too. Chelsea Handler refers to her cha-cha as her hot pocket. I like your use much better ;-)

Hot Pocket could also go by "Not Yet" or "Swo-wy". and Boober could also go by "Nice To Meet You" or "Tired!!"

@Dani G: Love the Chelsea Handler info! I never knew that...who knew such a cute name could be turned around like that!
