Four Auk-del



That is how it comes out when you are 2. Thor is learning that he is more than just Thor. We are working in the car on saying our WHOLE name. IT is interesting what he thinks his name is, as he goes by many aliases:

Boogie
Boogieman
Baby Butt Baier (we like the alteration, he, as do all my boys, clearly has a Holst butt. But that is another entry.)
Hang Low Holst (only when the diaper is full)
Silly Boy

When the earthquake hit Haiti I started worrying about if Thor could tell a stranger his name, you know, in case a earthquake ever hit South Central Iowa. I realized that when asked his name he would give me a different answer each time. Mostly Boogie, as that is what I call him most often. (I know, only in the south can we refer to our children as Boogers and mean it as a term of endearment) So we started working on it.

So far, if he is ever lost he can clearly say with out any 2 year old gibberish:

Boogie
Baby Butt Baier
Silly Boy

That should help a police officer if he ever got lost.

So now when asked what is his name he clearly and loudly states:

Four Auk-del

That should definitely help anyone should there be an emergency.

This week we will work on adding Baier.
