Anyone who knows anything about me knows that I'm a sucker for traditions. One of our many spring traditions is going to see the KC Royals when they come up to play the Cleveland Indians. We've lived here 5 springs and this year marked our 5th time in attendance. Luckily, this year the in-laws were in town and treated us to some fabulous tickets!
For the last 3 years, we've gone from staying only the first few innings to staying almost the entire game this past Monday night. The little man did awesome and thanks to ice cream and other snacks, he sat in his seat like a champ.
Love the far right picture below where Derek is explaining baseball and he's intently listening.
I do love a good Royals game, but I absolutely love when there is 'special' entertainment. Take, for example, a squirrel that got onto the field that wouldn't leave. They attempted many times to capture this guy and the crowd kept cheering him on each time he ran free. It was quite hilarious. (Sorry - phone videos don't make for the best quality blog videos)
And now for your viewing pleasure, each of our former years put together...

Can't wait to have our daughter join in the tradition next year as well as not looking/feeling like a hippo.




I love the progression photos - so fun!! And you don't look like a hippo by the way. ;)
ReplyDeleteCan I please just say that your kid is so freaking adorable! I could eat him up. And while I'm not a baseball fan, I adore this tradition of yours, especially with the yearly pic. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures! I love the family progression pictures. He is so cute and your baby bump is adorable!
ReplyDeleteYou look great! Opening day was always a tradition of ours, but I was pregnant last year and we hadn't told anyone yet, so we avoided it altogether and this year Henry was only 5 months and we just weren't ready to take to something so big. We're hoping to take him later this season! Love the progression photos!
ReplyDeleteOMG I was dying laughing over that squirrel when we were watching the game!!
ReplyDeleteHow fun and what a great tradition. :-)
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures, such a fun tradition to have!
ReplyDeleteI love the past pictures and see how your family (and belly!) have grown! Can't wait for baby girl to join y'all next year!
ReplyDeleteI love this tradition! & the fact that Drew was good the whole game, that is completely awesome! As for the squirrel, that was pretty dang funny - "let him play!" Ha! :)
ReplyDeleteI love that you have a picture from each year and it shows your family growing! Traditions are the best!
ReplyDeleteYay go Royals! We had Monday night's game on tv...as we do each night! Cute pictures and a fun tradition!
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome tradition! I love the annual photos. I've always been hesitant to take R to a Braves game, but these pics make me want to, especially now that S is here. I think the tradition seems worth the effort to drag two little ones to the stadium.
ReplyDeleteFirst, you don't look like a hippo! Second, you and your husband DO NOT age!!! Seriously!!! What's your secret? :)
ReplyDeleteI love that you have this tradition!! So sweet -- and those photos are great :)
