Mother's Day

My second Mother's Day was nice. Shawn got us tickets to the Cardinals game. The weather was chilly, and we had Keira all bundled up. She was really well-behaved, and only got fussy toward the end of the game. Mom had offered to let her stay with them for the day, but I wasn't about to spend Mother's Day without my baby girl. OH! And this morning, I got the best gift of all....she said "I love you"!! (It sounded more like "I lah lou", but I had just said it to her, and she was repeating it back to me, so I knew what she said. Last year, she smiled her first real smile at me on Mother's Day. I love her so much it makes my heart hurt!

Back to the game, though...It was our first trip to the new stadium. I was impressed, overall. I had heard some things, both positive and negative, but I liked it. I thought the layout was nice, and I really enjoyed the view from our seats. I also liked the fact that we could see into the stadium from the upper level of the parking garage. I did not, however, like the stairs to get to our level, but we discovered on the way out that we could take the ramp instead, if we wanted to.

The Cards lost (7-6), and Albert didn't hit homerun #20, but it was a good time anyway. Plus, I got a really cute PINK Cardinals tote bag! I'll post some of our photos later.
