I am still searching for what exactly to call Bentley when I refer to him on my blog.
I call Parker “P” or “P Man” because it fits him.
But, with Bentley…I call him Bentley.
I really do NOT want people to shorten his name to Ben. No offense to people with the name Ben. I like it. It’s just I like Bentley because it’s different. Ben is common. Common is not me.
So what do you think I should call him? I sometimes shorten it to Bent or Bents when I am texting?? And I really can’t call him “B” because that’s what we call my grandma.
So do you all hate Bents?
Because I haven’t posted any new pics of the two lately…here they are…being brothers for sure. P is already trying to pester him by pulling his ears. Nice.
And because this may be the ONLY picture I have captured of P Man wearing pants…I had to post it. I wanted to prove to you guys that he does, once in a blue moon, wear pants.
Someone may need to warn him that the belly hanging out of the shirt is not hot.
Hey, I wasn’t gonna tell him. I was too excited he let daddy put the pants on him.

I love Bents! Super cute! My hubby always gets called Beezer or just B. I for whatever reason got dubbed Snick when I was a tot. Brandon even calls me that now, hmmm!

My oldest is named Benjamin and I did NOT want him called Ben. When he was in preschool his teachers would call him Ben and it drove me crazy (and really irritated me when my MIL would write Ben when we never called him that). Well at some point I figured it was so much easier for him to write Ben than Benjamin and he has pretty much been Ben ever since. Not what I wanted when I named him, but that’s how it went.
Personally I like Bents, probably because I have a Cooper that we often call Coop or Coops.

My maiden name is Bentley (love that you’re using it as a first name) and people could never find a way to shorten it when I was growing up. They never tried “Bents” though, that’s kind of cute!
