My mommy and daddy are big fans of the Colorado Rockies. They took me to games all summer while I grew in my mommy's tummy. The Rockies hit a big winning streak at the end of the season and ended up being tied with the San Diego Padres at the end of the season. When I was 2 days old the Rockies and Padres had a one game playoff to determine which team got to go to the playoffs. We were all excited for the game but my parents were a little worried because the doctor was concerned that my digestive system was not working right yet. All night my parents kept checking my diaper to see if things were moving yet. As the big game got to the 13th inning the Padres were up two runs. My daddy was almost in tears because he didn't believe that the Rockies could come up with more magic. My mommy told him not to give up yet. The bottom of the 13th inning started and the Rockies got the two runs they needed to go to extra innings. Then the magic kicked in- my mommy took my diaper off and was blowing on me trying to get me to pee. Just then a base hit allowed Matt Holliday to slide into home to win the game. My daddy jumped up in excitement and I added to the celebration with my own personal "fountain".
The Rockies made it to the playoffs and had to play the Phillies. The first two games were in Philly so we watched the games as a family. Yesterday my daddy and Grandpa Buck were lucky enough to go see them play at Coors Field. I wanted to go with them but it was too cold for me so I stayed home with Mommy and Grandma Buck. I did join in the fun though by sporting my Rockies gear. It was a little big this year but next year I'm going to be big enough for my gear. My gear must have been good because the Rockies swept the Phillies and won all the games they needed to make it to the next round. Next up the Arizona Diamondbacks!!!

So far the Rockies have not lost yet in my lifetime. Daddy tells me I'm his lucky charm. I hope the Rockies make it all the way to the World Series because mommy said I can go to a game if they make it.
