I’ll be calling the baby “Shug” from now on in my blog. I know lots of people use their children’s initials or a nickname for privacy reasons on their blogs, and I’m going to be the protective mommy too, and do the same. My PawPaw called me “Shugie” growing up (“Shug” is pronounced like the first syllable of “sugar”) and so the entire time Av and I were pregnant with the baby, we called him “Shug” since we didn’t find out if it was a girl or a boy – and it was easier than always saying “he” or “she”!
