  • This Picture Made Me Laugh Out Loud!

    Babies are the cutest 🙂

    A friend sent me this picture a while ago and I haven’t stopped laughing since. I can totally relate to that! It’s so funny and adorable at the same time.

    Sometimes with my son #PrinceMax, it is the very moment you take off his diaper that he would decide to relieve himself. And he can do so in such an interesting angle that it would land right in your face if you’re ‘lucky’.

    This is one photoshoot the little boy’s parents would never forget. The look on the mother’s face is priceless. And the cutest part will be when he grows up to see this.

    Taking pictures is a great way to preserve great memories. Pictures like this remind me of such.

    Any mums, dads, aunties, uncles or caregivers in the house? Please share some stories of interesting moments like this with your little ones that made you laugh out loud. Or perhaps, do you have any childhood photo where you were doing something really funny. Let’s hear your story!

  • Throwback Thursday: What Was Your Childhood Nickname?

    Some days back, I went out with a friend and we were in a public place when out of nowhere, someone screamed ‘Fanta!’ Apparently, the person was calling a lady standing beside us!

    She turned around and saw her childhood friend waving frantically at her, who eventually ran up and gave her a big hug. The lady’s name is Fatima and she is very fair… Lol

    I’m sure many of us have had our names twisted into really funny nicknames when we were kids. Chioma became Chin-Chin, Lola became Lollipop, Chika became Chikito, Bola became Button and much more.

    Sometimes the nicknames are coined from our real names, sometimes from our hobbies, sometimes from our tribe. Sometimes kids use it to tease their friends with distinctive parts of their body, like ‘Head Boy‘. I used to have a really slim classmate in school who was called ‘Pencil‘. I’ve heard someone being called ‘Igbo‘ by his Hausa friends…. and the list goes on.

    So let’s have a nice Throwback Thursday. What nickname did your friends call you when you were younger? How did they come about that nickname? Do they still call you that name?

    Have a fab Thursday!
