Lilypie First Birthday tickers

Take me out to the Ball game!








Lauren had the bright idea to take the boys to see as Astros games. I thought what the heck that will be fun. Well lets just say I don't think we will be running off and buying season tickets anytime soon. We timed it so that we would get there right as the game was starting. Lauren made the mistake last time her and Reece whet and got there during batting practice so about an hour into the game he was ready to go. I wish we would have made it that long. Here is a pic of what was going on at the top of the 2nd Inning!






Yes I said TOP of 2nd Inning! The DS was already out. Good thinking Ernie to pack them, but 2nd Inning. I looked and Lauren and said we paid $45 a piece for these tickets and they are playing DS. I messed up and told them that they were have fireworks after the game so guess what we had to stay the whole time. Much like most of the Astro games it was pretty uneventful. In about the 5th inning I was getting asked when it was going to be over. I had to break the news that it had a long time left. The boys starting getting very restless, this was getting on Ernie's last nerve. She tried to be so sweet, she bought them any and everything to try to get them to sit still. But like most stuff there it was full of sugar. This only gave them more energy. About 10:30 we decided that we would try to leave. That didn't work. They hadn't seen fireworks yet. I got a evil look from La and a "Thanks Tia" for saying something about fireworks. We finally got to see the fireworks, it was worth it and the boys loved them. They both fell asleep on the way home. When I carried Reece to Lauren 's car he opened his eyes and said, "Tia I had a great time". That made me forget about the last 7 hrs. Funny how kids can do that.

Lauren, that is what Reece came up with when he was a baby, so it has stuck.
