Tiger Cub

Aiden Cole watched his very first NCAA final four game- and the Memphis Tigers won!!! Although our dear G-dad was sorely missed, we all rallied in the second half (A slept through the first half) and cheered on our team. Mom and Aiden were dressed in Tiger duds, and we snapped some great pics for G-dad and Uncle Spanky.

You could feel the tension in the air... we do live in a Tiger house after all, but the poor baby had a naptime nightmare that U of M lost. Aiden Cole woke up screaming and I soothed him back to the land of nod with his binkie and promises that Derick Rose would kick some booty and all the Tigers would improve their free-throw status for the special game.

Several hours and some Indian take out later, it was indeed a close game. The tension finally got to him as Aiden Cole projectile vomited all over Gram at 12.9 seconds... but as the buzzer sounded, we all cheered (and wiped off spit up). Gram was proud to call Aunt Kaki and inform her of our victory as Mom set out to texting the Bernal crew in San Antonio.

A few Coronas and diaper changes later, Aiden Cole lies on his Gram, with sweet dreams of the Tigers winning the tournament. We both want to send a shout out to our G-Dad and Uncle Spanky in San Antonio, watching Kansas beat UNC, eagerly awaiting Monday night's game.

When I told Dad that Aiden spit up all over Mom in the last 12.9 seconds, he sent me a text that said: Nelson did the same thing on the lady in from of us.

I cracked up. What a hilarious image!
