Wordless{ish} Wednesday - Baseball and Firetrucks

Last weekend, Bubs and I hauled our butts out of bed early on Saturday to go run the Game Day 5k...partly because I really want to keep running at least one race a month, but also because it meant you got 2-for-1 tickets to the Spring Training game later that day. 

Although it was not the best organized race I've ever done, the game was decent.  The Washington Nationals got slaughtered by the Cardinals, but we didn't care either way (we're Philly fans, you know), so we just went for the park food and the fresh air.  The first and last game we ever took him to was when he was only about 3 months old, so this was a whole new experience.

First Baseball Game - March 2011 - 3 Months Old

Nash did so well during the game...although a couple of kids next to us had a baseball.  Once he caught sight of that ball, it was all he could think about.  After about 10 minutes of fighting him off, we decided to take a walk and check out the fire trucks.

This truck was from NYC and was actually used during 9/11 (the entire crew died that day).  It was finally decommissioned in 2010 and they've been visiting stations around the country.    It was pretty awesome to see it, and Nash was enthralled!  He kept trying to close the giant doors...

Hectic Week

This week has been pretty hectic!  On Saturday we went to a birthday party for Cooper, who is the 1-year-old son of our friends Slice and Casey.  It was so cute, and we got to see him and little Bradley, who is only 6 months old.  It really got us excited for little man to make his debut.  I think I even leaned down in the car and said, "Ok, whenever you're ready" to the belly.  Hehe...

Then on Sunday we got up early and drove all the way to Jacksonville to watch the Eagles game.  We went with this large group of people, and even Mindy met us up there.  It was insanely hot, and we were all disgustingly gross before the game even started (we tailgated for about 3 hours).  We had awesome seats and everyone enjoyed my homemade tank top!

#1 Draft Pick - 2030

Then we had our follow up appointment on Monday.  This is because they saw a bright spot on baby's heart when they looked closer at the ultrasound we had at 20 weeks.  The appointment was a surprise, and we were even more surprised to learn we would be getting another ultrasound!  So we thought we were going just for a meeting and instead got to see his little face again!  He certainly is cute and even smiled for us at one point.  I think he looks like Joe (or Damian), but I think he might have my chin.  hehe...  We also stopped by Sweet! By Good Golly Miss Holly (Molly?) in Orlando and got some minis.  I bought a dozen in different flavors and have been eating one a day (I froze half to save for next week).

This week I have been trying to get some stuff done around the house.  Tomorrow I am going to Tampa to clean my mom's apartment for her as a surprise for when she gets out of rehab.  I have drill this weekend, so have some Army work to do on Friday to prepare.
