Cleveland Happenings

Here are some of the few things we have been able to do the past few months.

We went to a Cleveland Indians baseball game. This was our first time going as a family- it was alot of fun. We thought that Macie would really enjoy it, and she kind of did. During the first inning there were 2 homeruns- well- with each homerun they do fireworks. Basically the fireworks scared her to death and all she wanted to do the rest of the time was sit on my lap and hug me as tight as she could while saying "it's time to go!" I think near the end she had calmed down enough that she was enjoying herself. The funniest part about this game is that in EVERY prayer we now say- she adds in "and go to the ballgame"- I don't know where she picked this up, but it is pretty funny, seeing how we thought that she didn't even enjoy herself.

We also had the chance to go to an airshow- they do an airshow here every year over labor day weekend, so Geoff took Macie with some friends and they had a good time. I decided not to go because Addie was just a little to small and I still wanted her to be able to hear throughout life- so we just stayed home. When they got home, Macie came running up to me and gave me the biggest hug and said "a scary mommy, planes really loud, I go home!" So cute and so funny- she also talked about this experience for the next 3 weeks. Apparently big things like this really impact her. I'm just glad that it didn't make her afraid of planes, seeing that we will be flying on one in December.
