Take Lotte out to the ball game

It's September and it's a crazy time in our lives here in Lotte's world, with Halloween just around the corner, Football starting and last but by no means the least baseball post season coming up. Baseball is something very important to all of us here. I remember as a child going with my family as a family at times to see the South Bend White Sox and even getting to see Bo Jackson play for them. Chocolate daddy grew up seeing the Brewers with his family, his "other" family and Evan, his best friend and Lotte's Godfather. So when we got pregnant last year we knew we were going to have a baseball fan but we didn't think it would be like this....

Lotte LOVES baseball more then anything, at just a few months old she would be taken away by her uncle Jimmy to go watch the game and she watches. It's truly the cutest thing to see ever.  So July 4th with her godfather and Chocolate daddy's other family we took Lotte to her 1st live brewer game. We were in the middle of teething and  it was really warm so we went not sure how long we were going to be there but we went and stayed till the 8th with Lotte only sleeping a little during the game because she was watching more then anything.

So come game number 2 we went with Uncle Jimmy and Aunt Laurel, for some super cuteness, and found out when the Brewers mess up Lotte will rip them a new one as she was going off in her special baby talk. This time she made it thur the whole game and only slept about 1 inning during the game.

That brings up to tonight's game, Chocolate Daddy won 2 Club level tickets to the game off the radio(woohoo RIGHT!!??!!)! We had a week to plan/wait till to game so Little miss got a new hair bow and tutu to pay tribute to old school Brewers due to the last time the Brewers won the division was back in 1982 when they wore Blue and Gold. Now she's got 2 Brewers tutus and i think she loves them both and looks too cute in everything.

Get to today game day, lots to get done before we can go watch the game. I get Little Miss hooked up to her Jackson Pollock site and get to working on making a few things for the game and the week only to come back and catch her RED HANDED doing things she's not suppose to. She's one smart 7 month old! 

That's not JACKSON POLLOCK!!!!

Caught ya!!

  So like I said, We didn't think she'd be that into baseball. She even made sure to take an extra long second nap so she'd be awake most of the game as well as a quick nap while we were waiting to get in and for everything to start.

Watching sports makes for great learning because we use it to help with the whole clapping thing and hope she doesn't learn the whole swearing thing I sometimes do when someone does something dumb!

Her full outfit to show off her support of her team.

Someone's upset they were asked to look at the camera while Fielder was up to bat.

Lotte should of been up for power fan but that didn't happen she was robbed! We (me and Chocolate daddy) laugh because we see people who bring kids and then bring things like a portable dvd player or headphones so the kids can play on mommy or daddy's phones. To us that's Crazy because baseball is so much fun to do as a family and a great way to teach kids things like "guess the swear word the coach just yelled at the umpire". No really Miller Park has some great things for kids to do besides watch the game.  

Fighting sleep to watch the game because the Brewers were down by 1

Fielder Hit a homer and that was all she wrote till it was time for mommy and daddy to leave.

She had a ball in the end!

 With a baseball fan like Lotte it's hard not to love the game and she knows when to be happy and when to cry.  We hope she'll be able to see and root for her team in the World Series but only time will tell. And for those that didn't know Brewer won 6-4 over the Pirates.
