I really like the fact that we named her Ellen, but most of the time it seems a bit too grown-up. But that’s ok — that’s what nick-names are for. But for some reason (probably because she changes so fast) no single nickname seems to stick. So here’s a list, in no particular order.
- Little girl
- The Frog
- Tater-tot
- Destructo-bot
- Cabbage head
- Potato-person
You forgot “Sweet Angel”.
That’s funny, and scary how close some of the names are to Heidi’s:
Bug
Destructo-Girl
Bean Head
Noodnik
Cheeky Girl
Her nickname in China was Yiyi (from Huan-Yi); we rarely use that any more, though I still like it.
From Carly: “I’m offended. Destructo-bot is my nickname… (hehehe)”
From both girls: “This is our favorite picture of Ellen so far. We miss all of you so much.”
