Take Me Out to the Ballgame!!

It's been a while.  So I'll try to gradually get  caught up before the end of the school year, when I will not have internet anymore :(

We took Owen to his first baseball game a few weeks ago.  Well,technically second but he was only a few months old for his first Iowa Cubs game.  Matt and I expected him to last an inning or so.  We were suprised.  Owen LOVED it!  He was watching, cheering, yelling, clapping, you name it.  He had a blast.  He would watch them get ready to hit, yell for us to watch, talk about where the ball should go and the guys running.  We had seats right behind home plate and they hit a couple foul balls over our heads, then he talked about them hitting the ball up in the sky the rest of the night.  He wanted them to hit foul balls so that he could see the ball go up over his head.  There was of couple mascots around, he wanted to get close and touch them but did not want them to actually hug him.  We stayed through about 4 innings before he was ready to leave so that he could run around.

This was his initial reaction to the game.  So excited he could hardly contain himself.

Look at that hair.  We're going to have to get him a trim before summer temps hit I think.

Cannot wait to take him to many more Iowa Cubs baseball games.  He is getting to the age that he can actually enjoy things and remember what we did.  It's going to be a fun summer!
