What’s UP?
Posted by PaulJul 29
Well, since you asked.
And many of you have. What’s UP with UP?

The observant of you may have noticed that every time I use the word UP, it is in caps.
Some of you may have figured it out already.
For the rest, here’s why.
I have two nephews and four nieces.
Over the years I’ve gone from Unkie Paul, to Uncle Paul, to Crazy Uncle Paul, to simply UP.
I believe it was Jenny, my lovely niece from over at Mommin It UP who started it.

And well, it stuck.
All my nieces are lovely, all are wonderful, but Jenny got me started on this crazy ride in the blogosphere. So, what’s UP with UP? It’s a tribute to her, just a daily way of saying thanks for the encouragement, pimping me out to all her bloggie friends, and sharing me with her readers.
Though Jenny’s blogged about many, many things, from CVS to her grandparents, to her kids bathroom habits, I’m the only Uncle she’s blogged about – thus far. You can check out what she’s had to say about me here. And, she’s even let me “guest blog” on her blog!
Now you know, that’s what’s UP with UP.

Good story! Thanks to Jenny and Andrea for turning me on to your blog. It is always insightful and I usaully learn something from all the historical post. The Fashion Friday on the other hand is usually a good laugh!

UP is a favorite of all of his nieces and nephews, even the new generation. They love his humor.

I am super stoked you have your own blog, I learn so much on a daily basis and I will have to agree with Paul (aka Mr. Mommysnacks) that Fashion Friday is a fantastic post!

Everytime I think about skipping a Fashion Friday, someone says they look forward to it! Thanks for the cred!
