Kjell the Football Fan

After a brief scare, when Kjell claimed that he preferred the Beavers to the Ducks, Kjell is back on track and loving on some football. We play football at home every day. Our games consist of Kjell running laps of the house carrying the football and telling us when to cheer. It's pretty fun for him and pretty entertaining for his folks. As he's been watching Duck games on TV and in person and after attending one Willamette game, he has started to add to his list of plays. His favorite move is the "spin move" that we learned while in attendance at the Utah vs. Oregon game at Autzen stadium. I have a photo from the game below and a look at the spin move that inspired Kjell below the photo. Kjell was a total trooper at the game. I was hoping that he'd make it to halftime, but he watched the whole game. He told me to stand when everyone else stood so that he could see the game. Then, the next weekend, he was indignant that D'mitri was joining me for the game, rather than Kjell. I'm so proud.
