Meet "Waggy"

They just finished up a unit on dinosaurs in Sienna's preschool class. Today Sienna came home with a dinosaur egg (and her friend, Lauren).
First Sienna tried to break it open with her hammer.
She gave it a few good whacks with no luck.
Then she resorted to using the plastic screwdriver.
That did the trick!
It's a baby dinosaur!!
I asked Sienna if the dinosaur had a name, and without hesitation, she said, "Waggy!"
Sienna has always been quick to come up with names for her various animals. A few months ago, everything was named something like Mahas, Sha Sha or Rashash. She has a black bear named Freddy, a bunny named Rock Star, and a dog named Lovey. Now we have Waggy, the dinosaur!
Isabella also came up with interesting names for her baby dolls. She received several baby dolls when Sienna was born and Isabella was only two years old. They are named Baby Oprah, Baby Guinness and Baby Bulldog. Although Baby Oprah is white, Isabella knew the name since I watched Oprah on a fairly regular basis at that time. Those days are over! Baby Guinness is named after one of our former neighbors' dogs, Guinness and Dublin (not the beer!). Mike came up with the name Baby Bulldog for the last baby because she has a squished up face. He should have known that a name like that would stick!!

My cousin, Megan, used to give her dolls funny names, too. She had a Cabbage Patch Kid Preemie doll named Preemie along with a doll named Arastis (named by her dad, my Uncle Ken). Come to think of it, I used to have dolls named Miss Wiggy and Baby Naked!! I guess it runs in the family!
