Jonah's official nickname is "Scrappy". It fits him perfectly. Before all of our boys were born and we contemplated different first and middle names for each of them, we always tested out the possible nicknames that went with each name......the good and the bad. Therefore, it is especially funny that both Wyatt and Jonah have nicknames that have absolutely nothing to do with their actual names. Wyatt has always been "pork chop" or "chop" for as long as I can remember (for obvious size reasons) and Jonah was immediately "Scrappy". He was very little but so feisty, like Scrappy Doo from Scooby Doo. He makes a big statement with a little body! I had a friend (who didn't know Jonah's nickname) tell me that it seems like the youngest children in a family are always "pretty Scrappy". Jonah also talks the most in our house and can already roll over. It seems like he knows that he has to start early if he is going to measure up against his "big brothers" (did I mention that Sam weighs 14 lbs 12 oz at 3 months?!?!). I think that eventually Jonah will learn to love and appreciate his nickname "Scrappy", because we sure do love and appreciate him!!!
