Dan came back from San Antonio last night, and I am glad. In addition to a suitcase full of dirty laundry, he came bearing gifts for Kate. Several LARGE shopping bags were stuffed full of baby clothes bought by the female members of the Wachdorf/Dubovik clan during an excursion to the fantastic outlet malls. This is going to be a fashionable baby, thanks entirely to the impeccable taste of her many female relatives. Thanks, ladies!
But Dan also bought the baby a gift from him during his time in Texas. It's a book. But not just any book. A book called "Texas A&M Aggies 1 2 3: My First Counting Book." He is enormously proud of this purchase. It is shaped like a football helmet, and teaches the baby to count things like mascots, athletes, trophies and pennants. It will also ensure that Kate knows the vital fact that there are 100 yards in a football field.
I think this is Dan's attempt to make sure that his daughter is more sports-literate than her mom while simultaneously brainwashing her into wanting to attend A & M. I guess we'll find out if it works in 18 years or so.
In the meantime, here's Dan, posing with his propaganda:

Good work, Dan the man! Let the mind games begin!
Never let the influence of a certain "I had a bad experience in Yazoo City, MS. when I was seven years old and therefore I will NEVER play sports again" pregnant women dominate little Kate!
Stand strong, Dan the man.
Thanks and gig'em!
