Home run!

One Saturday in September we made trek out to the Bronx to see a game at Yankee Stadium.  It was quite the adventure with a little guy.

To get there we took a train to a bus to a train.  Needless to say, we missed the opening pitch. But there were teddy bears left at admissions so Jaime has a blue Yankee's teddy bear from going to his first baseball game.

We found our seats and began the process of annoying everyone around us. ;) It was lots of fun to see Jaime take it all in.  But he was squirmy. And he kept losing his shoe.

Dan took James to toddle around while I enjoyed the game.

But Jaime did enjoy watching the game and the crowds. He loved all the clapping.  When the Yankee's hit a homerun he just loved all the cheering and joined it. It was pretty much the cutest.

But then he was exhausted and we had a long trek home so we decided to cut out.  We made it through a fair percentage of the game with a 14 month old so not bad.

I grew up watching and cheering for the Twins. After moving to Chicago I did kind of cheer for the Cubs but never adopted them as 'my team'.  I wonder if the Yankees will be Jaime's team.
