Ranger's Game

Every kid that grows up in this area must have memories of going to Texas Rangers games. Well, Molly is no exception.
A Rangers game is fun no matter where you sit,right? Well, let me take that statement back. We had a chance to sit right behind home plate for Molly's first game at 7 weeks old. Had is the key word there! Let me set this up for you...

We went to the game with Dicky's parents and ate at Chili's before the game. We wanted to beat traffic so we left early and got a snack. All is going well, we arrive at the park with plenty of time to get situated and find out seats. Molly is in her Baby Bjorn and I am carrying the carseat. We happened to have an extra ticket, so we figured we would bring the seat to put her in incase we felt the need. So along with the seat, I am carrying the HUGE diaper bag that probably had more in it than I needed. Hey..I am new at this, give me a break. :) Finally, we walk into the park and we are standing to the side waiting for Dicky's parents to get some money from the ATM. A nice lady says to us, "How old is she?" to which I reply that she was 7 weeks old that day. She went on to tell us how impressed she was that we were there with her, she made Molly a certificate for her first game, and then asked us where were sitting. We told her where (the nosebleeds) and she told us to go ahead and sit down and she would try to get us some upgraded seats. There would be a man in a red Ozarka shirt that would come find us. We hurried to our seats and sat to wait, and wait, and wait. We never saw a man. Oh, well. Wait!!! We were sitting in the wrong seats! NOOOOO!!!! Later on in the game, they showed another couple that got the upgraded seats from Ozarka and they were right behind HOME PLATE! Oh well, we had fun and the Rangers won 6-0!

We finally got in the car to head home around 10:00 PM, pulled over at 10:30 to feed her because she was screaming hysterically, and then she had a major explosion in her diaper around 11:30. We got home at midnight and gave her a much needed bath. We all three slept well that night!

So, those of you with young babies, if you are considering taking them to a game, be prepared for an adventure!
