Take Me Out To The Ball Game


We took The Boy to his first baseball game. And the Royals actually won a game! We had a blast and he was pretty good. He fell asleep in the 7th & slept through the fireworks at the end of the game.

The other morning when I was changing him, he wasn't done pooping and with his diaper off, he actually made two turd shaped turds. (As opposed to the wedges of poop that get formed because of the diaper.)

He's starting to move around in the crib while he's sleeping. It's our fault. We were with friends who have a son 5 weeks younger than The Boy. They were telling us how he moves around all the time in his crib. We said how The Boy never moves an inch - wakes up exactly how you left him. Two or three days after that comment he wakes up once on his stomach with his head at the foot of the crib and once sideways.

There's been a couple times in the past few days where I've been able to sooth The Boy when The Mom could not. It's kind of nice to be able to sooth him, but I do feel bad because I know how terrible it feels to not be able to sooth him.

He likes to roll from back to front, front to back, back to front, etc. etc. etc. But so far he just does it back and forth and stays in one spot. As soon as he realizes he can keep rolling in the same direction - look out!

Take him to as many "sit still" events as you can before he can't sit still for more than 2 minutes and you have to pay admission. I got Gavin to a few baseball games in the old Busch but we missed the perfect time for Hockey. Damn lockout! Taking away possible memories!

good point. unfortunately I don't think I can afford playoff tix or the trip to the nearest playoff game. we'll just have to make do with local events.

The sad thing is you have just as much of a chance to see a local NHL playoff game as I do!
