You gotta fight

Anyone born between 1970 and 1985 should know how the rest goes, but I titled this post this way to remind me to introduce Ben to a little Beastie when he's perusing these pages.

Yes, this was a weekend of partying.  Our friend Peter Hall turned 2 and celebrated with pizza and cake on Saturday and the TS family kindly allowed us to join in their festivities of all things food and football-the Superbowl.  The Green Bay Packers packers beat the Pittsburgh Steelers in a pretty good game.  As per usual though food was the best part and there were a couple of good commercials.  Volkswagen and eTrade stole the show.  I know I'm a biased Mama but I do think Ben would be a good eTrade baby.

 "playing" at Cadyn's play-date

In other news this week, Ben tried sweet potatoes and, of course, loves them.  In fact, I'll be shocked if there is a food this monster does not like.  Acorn squash is up next.  We had another great play-date with Cadyn and Charlotte and their Mamas, (at Cadyn's house this time) and are looking forward to the next one.  Ben is OH SO CLOSE to rolling over.  I think he's gonna wait until right before his six month appointment just to keep me nervous.  Another blast of winter is on its way tomorrow and Wednesday but the pantry is stocked with hot chocolate and Similac, so bring it on.
