Dear Eleanor,
This week you went to your first sporting event! Daddy & I took you to the Metrodome to see a Twins game. Daddy really wanted to take you along because this is going to be the last season the Twins play ball in the Metrodome. Starting next season they will be playing at Target Field. We parked at Gramma Pam's work downtown & so we got to bring you into her work and show you off to all of her co-workers. They all thought you were adorable (of course) and loved your cute pink Twins t-shirt. The game was sponsored by a vendor of daddy's work so there was a picnic before the game & we knew a few other people there. You did great! You were awake & happy during the picnic despite the heat and then once we got into the dome we wrapped you up in a blanket & you fell asleep before the first inning was over! You slept good through the loud cheering and only woke up a few times, but went right back to sleep each time. The Twins won that game vs the Kansas City Royals 7 - 1 , so now you can say you were at a winning Twins baseball game in the Metrodome.
You & I have been working on sitting a little bit lately. You can "tripod" sit for a very short time. Tripod sitting is when you have your hands on the floor between your legs to help hold you up. You really seem to enjoy sitting up, but it isn't very long before you tip over. I've been putting pillows all around you so when you do tip over your landing is nice & soft. You just smile when you land on the pillows. It probably won't be long before you can sit all alone!
You've really been enjoying solid foods. So far you've tried peas, sweet potatos, bananas & green beans! The sweet potatos seemed to be your favorite. Next is pears & apples, yummy!
Love,
Mommy
