A weekend of firsts

A weekend of firsts for Clara. She went to her first baseball game (and it was her first professional sporting event), and to a mall to shop :) .

On Friday evening, we saw the Durham Bulls play my hometeam the Toledo Mud Hens. Durham won. Clara enjoyed herself, her eyes were wide open, just looking at everything. And at one point, she even took a quick nap. Only a baby can fall asleep in all that commotion.

A nice couple saw us and offered two of their tickets (game was sold out by the time we arrived). We ended up sitting right behind first base. Mike protected his little girl from the foul balls. And we had to be alert, a couple of times they came right over our heads.

It was a fun time and Clara was out late. But she did so well.

On Saturday, we headed to Southpoint Mall to shop. Clara's first trip to a mall. She definitely is a girl, she enjoyed shopping. She spent a lot of time with daddy, while mommy looked for and tried on lots of clothes. Again, another busy day and late night for Clara. She did real well but got fussy on the way home. She was tired. So we fed her and put her straight to bed when we got home.

All the business of the weekend seemed to catch up with Clara on Monday. She fell asleep around 6:50pm yesterday and I had to wake her up to feed her and put her to bed for the night.

We tried out the bumbo chair and Clara seems to really like it. She leans back like it is her easy chair. So cute. I'll post pictures at some point. Thanks Fine Arts Department at Holly Springs High for the bumbo chair.
