Archie

I went to pick up RJ from nursery Sunday and they handed me this paper.
I said: "Oh that's not his."
 Teacher: "Oh it's his, that what we call him."
I busted up laughing, because I thought it was funny, like they assign each kid a nickname.
Teacher: "We couldn't remember what you said, we were all like, "what did she say his name was?"

So I said thanks and left, and realized she got "Archie" from "R.J."  He's only 2, but I thought he could say his name pretty well so you could understand, but then I remembered they couldn't understand me.

I guess I need to enunciate better.
But in the mean time we've been calling him Archie.
Is Archie short for Archibald or something?

Here's what Archie's been up to.
I left the room for a few minutes, and he climbed up on the counter, grabbed the whole watermelon, plopped it on his lap, and went to town.  It was a mess.  He's even taken a stack of napkins and was soaking up the juice from the bottom of his crater he'd eaten.

  4. You can send him with a name tag on. Make a cute little missionary tag, but put his full name.
    Pretty cute kid. Love that he was trying to soak up his mess.
