young (ages 3-5) and were around them as mom or dad? Or did you call them by their name? My cousins wife refers to him as dad whenever the kids are around.

My wife called me by my name at first...then the twins started doing it (they are 3 now). It took a couple of months to get back to calling me Daddy.

I refer to my wife as mommy when talking to the kids about her, but I usually call her "Honey" when talking to her around them. So, every now and then my smart arse kids will call out "Honey" when looking for her

No kids.

My parents always called one another by their names. If they were referring to the other parent in conversation with us kids, it was Your Mom/Dad.

Depends on if I'm including the kids in the conversation.

When addressing her, I use her name. When talking about her to them, I use Mommy/Mom.

Is that not normal?

Our son is 2.5, so we still call each other mom and dad, but it depends on the situation. One reason we do it is because he's started trolling us by calling us by our first names with a cheesy grin and then laughing his head off .

This.

If I'm saying something usually on behalf of the kids and I'm wanting them to hear it, I'll go with Mom Mom, as my 3 year old twins call her.
