Addy's first trip to Wrigley...

Good morning, all!

On September 3rd, the whole family made the trip to Chicago for Addy's first trip to Wrigley Field. It was great! We were running a little behind and ended up arriving sometime in the 5th inning. That actually worked out well because I doubt that both kiddos would have lasted the whole game--and it cut down on traffic!

When we were walking into the stadium, one of the ticket takers told us about a neat feature for "First Timers". We got to take Addy to the Customer Relations desk and she got a packet for her first game. It included a plaque, stickers, coloring book, and other fun memorabilia for her first game. We wish that we would have known about the service when we brought Carter to his first game.

The kids behaved very well during the game. Carter kept occupied with a hotdog and lemonade and he watched the game like a hawk. This is quite the change from the games he has attended in the past where he didn't really seem to care much about the game. In typical Addy fashion, she was great and only fussed when she was hungry. She got a bottle part way through the game and was our little angel the rest of the time.

After the game we went to some of the souvenir shops in Wrigleyville. We found a great Cubs shirt for each kiddo and aside from the crowds, had a wonderful time looking at all the cool Cubs "stuff".

Enjoy the photos from our trip.
