Utah-Man-Am-I Guy

Utah-Man-Am-I-Guy is the latest superhero to take up residence at my house. He emerged yesterday when Joop (his big brother) came home with this season's gridiron gear.

Here are some of Utah-Man-Am-I Guy's superhero stats:

Age: 3

Hair: Blonde

Eyes: Brown, dreamy

Smile: Adorable

Favorite food: Chocolate chips

Superhero Costume: Red Ute Football Practice helmet c. 1985, Red converse all-star sneakers c. 2010, Target.

Super powers: Blankie Punch, Tackle Hug (starts out as a tackle, turns into a hug), and playing "oofball."

Superhero Theme Song: (University of Utah Fight Song, but with the words changed slightly)

"Utah Man Sir, Be a Yoo-oote-Guy. Buh-bum-buh-bum-buh-bum!"

Nemesis: Anyone on the bad guy team, but especially blue cougars and and purple horned frogs.

Weakness: Peanut butter sandwich for lunch caused dire need to drink milk, but Utah-Man-Am-I Guy can't figure out how to get the cup past the face-guard of the helmet. Eustachian tubes slightly kinked.

Here is Utah-Man-Am-I Guy out of character, relaxing at the beach.

Could that have possible been any cuter? I think not! I will forgive him for being all red since he has no hope in that family! The beach picture is adorable also. So talented you are!
