the pieces of my life

So, while I refer to Doodles as Doodles in this blog, in real life, that name has been pretty much been tossed to the wayside. It still comes out occasionally, but I just as often call him Bugs, Squirmy Wormy, or, my favorite, Monkey. Many of the books I’ve read said that name recognition starts about now so every so often I call him by his actual name. Zilch. Today, I tried it again and got nothing. But when I called out, “Hey Monkey Man!” he looked up from his toy, right into my eyes. I think I may have to start referring to him by his given name a bit more often.
