Go Barons!

Thursday night we took Sipsey to her first baseball game! The Birmingham Barons played the Mississippi Braves. It was hard to choose which team to root for (growing up loving the Atlanta Braves) but in the end we chose the Barons! The School of Public Health had a "social" there, so I got in for free. It was Thirsty Thursday, so beers were $1 (I didn't partake) and a basket of wings was $2. We never go anywhere with Sipsey so I didn't know how it would go, but she was great! She was the center of attention and was passed around all night. I fed her baby food in the stands and we nursed in the car before going inside. You should've seen how much stuff I'd packed in her diaper bag...4 jars of baby food (just in case), spoons, teething toys, burp cloths, a bottle (just in case), bibs, diapers, wipes, an extra outfit, a camera, my wallet, cellphone, keys, changing pad, and probably a whole lot more. I felt like Mary Poppins! We could've lived for days on the contents of that bag! Sipsey was pooped from all the attention and it was way past her bedtime, so she zonked out in my arms and stayed that way through all the yelling, whistling, booing and general hootin' and a hollerin'. The only bad part of the night was having to leave the game early to get home at a decent time!
