Take Me Out to the Ball Game!



we had such a fun weekend! fri night dan and i were able to grab dessert at applebees (i ordered an oriental chicken salad as well- i LOVE the dressing!). sat we had a nice, lazy morning and then headed to the Diamondbacks game. i don't care for baseball, but it was still fun to get out of the house and go somewhere. we decided to take madison and she was wonderful! she was entranced by the lady sitting behind us who had inch-long, bright red nails and kept tapping them on madison's seat. we bought some food, despite knowing it was a rip-off - what is more American than eating a big ol' hot dog at a baseball game?

afterward we headed to Toy 'R Us to shop around for madison. we decided she needed some 'developmentally appropriate' toys. we came home with too much but it was so fun! she was pulling stuffed animals off the shelves about as fast as we put them back up; she was so happy to just walk around from toy to toy. in the end we got a bunch of stuff, but her favorite is s little doll umbrella stroller. she loves to push it EVERYWHERE around the house or outside. but she will NOT let her doll sit in it- she throws her right out!

it was just a fun, relaxed weekend and it was fun to be able to just spend good quality time with each other. (the only bummer was that we forgot the camera!)
