A toddler’s eating habits are by far some of the most curious. You for instance seems to be a strict vegetarian even though Mommy and I will eat chicken, beef and fish. You’ll have none of it. You like vegetables and fruit, but when it comes to cake, you’d rather not. Although you do enjoy French Fries and chips a little too much this seems to be more that offset by your love of anything green. And then of course, you like salsa. Not chips AND salsa. You like chips, you like salsa, but you’d rather they didn’t really touch. Here’s some video of you eating one of the two

One might wonder why Abby has her head cocked to the right like she does. As I was taking pictures I decided that a portrait shot was called for. I turned the camera to the side to get it and she turned her head to match. It was one of the cutest/funniest things I’ve seen her do in at least a day.
Last night the Boston Red Sox swept the Chicago Rockies in the World series 4-0. We got to watch the game together until the 7th. At that time I asked you if you were ready for nigh-nigh and you were off to the races toward your room. This wasn’t too big a deal because the Rockies were down 3-0 so off we went to your room for our nightly ritual:
- Turn off the big light
- Turn on the night light
- Singing of ‘Take me out to the ball game‘
- Putting you in your crib
Of course after you went to bed the game got interesting. The Sox scored a run to make it 3-0 in the top of the 7th. The Rockies scored 1 in the bottom of the 7th. Then in the 8th the Rockies scored 2. Of course since the Sox has scored 1 in the top of the 8th they were still down 4-3. The Rockies did a good job of not letting any more scoring occur in the top of the 9th, but with Jonathon “Crazy Eyes” Pappelbon pitching, there wasn’t much hope, and just like that, the Red Sox were World Series Champions.
Overall I think you enjoyed the post-season, though not as much as if the Dodgers had made it to the playoffs. Maybe next year …
