The Kids Get an Upgrade, Too
By Christine | May 15, 2008
Since I’m going to the trouble of “upgrading” my husband’s blog name, I decided to give the kids an upgrade as well. We really do call my 8 year-old Miss Boo at home (and have since she was born) but I’ve noticed that Boo is a very common nickname.
Who knew?
Because she lives and breathes horses, I’m going to call her Pony Girl. I think she’s gonna love it.
My 6 year-old’s nicknames are many. MANY. She has a first name (not telling) and personality (total goofball) that have spawned more nicknames than we can count. Even though we do call her Sissy sometimes, she’s too much of an original for such an unoriginal name.
One of my favorite nicknames that she earned when she was two is Honey Bunches of Noes. You can probably guess how she got it, and it’s not because she liked the cereal. So from here on out, I’m calling her Honey Bunch.
Now if I could only give my van an upgrade…sigh…

I’ve noticed that you, me and Lara use the nickname Boo for at least one of our children. LOL Great minds think alike. I’m sure we each have our own story for why we do that though.

That’s funny, my nickname to my nieces and nephews is “Aunt Sissy” and my Grandpa called me “Honey Bunch” growing up. Do I get an upgrade too?

This was the cutest post about nicknames. The Honey Bunches of Noes…is that because she says no so much? Hehe, it’s cute.

Dianna, it was you and Lara I had in mind. I’ve always noticed that and just thought it was because we’re so awesome LOL!
