Michigan-Notre Dame Football Game - September, 2006

Helena may have been born on October 15, 2005, but her father refused to take Sara to the hospital until the Michigan-Penn State game finished (Michigan won on a last second play...and, as we all know, Helena was born the next day on October 16th).

This season, Michigan had two easy games to open up the season, but week three brought a game at Notre Dame. Helena was proud to celebrate with her parents and their friends as the Wolverines triumphed over the Fighting Irish. For better or for worse, Helena's first phrase might be Go Blue (she has already got the "Go" down pat)!!
