Percentages

Doctor said Ayden is in 90% for height and 60% for weight. I guess that means he's going to bump his head and flying will cost twice as much.

Hines Ward Part 2

An oration of last nights events as told by Ayden Olexa (since Daddy doesn't watch that show).

This is where men are made.  On the frozen tundra and the hardwood of a ballroom floor.  Vince Lombardi once said, "I firmly believe that any man's finest hour, the greatest fulfillment of all that he holds dear, is that moment when he has worked his heart out in a good cause and lies exhausted on the field of battle -- victorious."   It is within this context that the underdog became victorious last night through a myriad of  sashays and toe tapping promenades.    This highly contested battle was fraught with risk and peril, but in the end, the coveted Mirror Ball Trophy found it's way home.  Lombardi Trophy be damned!

Stand tall Steelers Nation...sweet, sweet, victory is ours once again.

   

Hines Ward

Ayden has cast his vote for Dancing With The Stars finale.  He wants to let everyone know that he is the one that watches the show, not his manly Daddy.

The Rapture

Fear not faithful followers, Super Baby survived the Rapture!  I know the lack of a blog on Sunday had the world wondering, "What happened to Super Baby?"  Well rest assured we are all doing well in Pittsburgh, PA.  It was not without worry.  When the Pittsburgh Pirates took two from the Detroit Tigers and were one game away from a sweep, for a brief second, I thought Harold Camping might have known something I didn't.  However, Saturday came and went, the Pirates lost on Sunday, and I explained to Ayden that the world was still in tact and that his future was still promising.  He looked at me inquisitively and then pooped his pants.  I'm not sure he understood the gravitas of the situation but isn't that the beauty of children.
