Name That Dog

NamelessNancy has always had a hard time with names.  She didn't learn her own until she was 3.  All of her best friends at school are named Boy and Girl.  Sometimes the parents get really fancy and name their kid Thatoneboy or Theothergirl.

One exercise that we do with her, is challenge her to name her stuff animals.  We might remember that we've had some success when she named her stuffed bunny Pervert Manager Herbert Nininger.  Tonight, we had another victory with the naming of, not one, but two of her puppies.

The one with light pink spots is named Otter.

The one with dark pink spots is named Effer.

Effer?

Haha! that's like when you're in a public place and your little guy sees the big truck drive by and yells "_uck!" Lovely, huh?

Just like that.

We had a few similar instances at some point, when my daughter used to insist that we take her to see the fish tanks when we took her to a Wal-Mart. Back in the day, when her speech still wasn't all there, she used to yell out "BISH!"

Most people just looked at us funny, but one lady looked sick and then asked, "Did she just say....?"

No, fish. Way to make fun of a kid with a speech delay. >:(

We just ran away.

Lil Bit introduced herself to a lady at church this weekend..."I'm Lana Paige...and I'm smartass..."


yea. That happened... LOVE it when Daddy forgets she's standing directly below him while he's talking about her :-)

Daddies are good at that. I keep having to remind Mr. A that the kids can both understand and repeat after him now. He keeps arguing that even if they say "jackass" they don't know what it means.

No, but everyone they're repeating it to knows.
