True Irish Fan

We introduced Benjamin to his first Notre Dame experience on Saturday. As Irish fans know things are usually a bit scary and frustrating during the games. Benjamin was not too happy with the beginning of game.

He wanted to know what was going on with the offense and why weren't they able to convert on third down.
As the game went on, he learned that the luck of the Irish can bring some surprising moments and it raised his spirits.
He was very happy in the end that the Irish we able to pull off a win in their home opener.

Is that my hand?

Ben has discovered his hands. He is constantly using them and putting them in his mouth. He has even found his thumb!
