Our Little Goober :9

So, for a long time now, we've been calling Jared "Goober." I don't know exactly how old he was when we started. Ryan came up with the name and it stuck. We were kind of wondering what the name really meant or if it meant anything, so we looked it up. We had to look in an urban dictionary to find the definition we wanted. But, here it is; we liked the second one best.
 
Our little Goober. =)

1. goober
basically a goober is just a kindhearted, rather oblivious goofball. it's term of endearment really. it comes from the ancient scottish verb "to goub", which has to do with doing a dance and smiling sheepishly while doing so, exposing the goubs in one's teeth.
2. goober
A term of endearment used in place of a person's real name; a nickmame. The first word that comes to mind when your baby starts to crawl, walk, talk. Used only in the most loving of ways with no negative connation at all. A loving nickname for someone who is pure, innocent, warms your heart and makes you smile.
