Go Cubs Go... Go Cubs Go!

Saturday night Brian, Stella and I went to watch the Cubs play the Diamondbacks.  I can't say that this was Stella's first time at Chase field, but what I can say is that this was her first time at Chase field since she has become so mobile.  We had awesome seat, eleven rows behind home plate.
 Stella enjoyed the fact that no one was sitting next to us.  She ran up and down the row the entire first three innings.  Luckily the gentlemen behind us were with their kids too, so me constantly chasing her wasn't that big of a deal.  We tried everything to try and distract her and get her to sit down... finally we found the trick!
POPCORN... I know that they are not technically supposed to have it until three, but we made an exception to the rule.  After she ate some of the popcorn, played in the popcorn, and then finally dumped out the popcorn, she quickly realized that the container could be used as a hat.  She is so
gifted :-)
I tried to get a good picture of Stella and daddy, but that would require her to stop squirming for about ten-seconds and as you could see that did not happen.
 We had an excellent time at the game, Stella even gave Baxter a kiss but by the time Brian got his camera out again she wasn't in the staying still for a picture mood.
The Cubs pulled out a victory this game which is the first time I have actually been to a game that they have won... go figure!  Now let's hope for the same when we go see them in St. Louis in June.
