Pete went to his first Red Sox game on Sunday! We met Nana, Grampa and Auntie Liz at Fenway and had so much fun. Pete hadn’t napped all day, so I was a little worried about how he’d do, but he loved it and lasted almost 7 innings. Since the Sox are terrible aren’t doing so great, it wasn’t crowded, which was perfect for us. Pete was able to wander around a little bit without bothering too many people. He was so cute. I think he was a little taken aback by all the clapping when we first got there, but then he got really into it. He clapped like crazy when Pedroioa hit a home run and he started dancing to all the player’s introduction songs. He said “Go Sox!” a lot and got so excited a few times he could barely contain himself.
I love seeing things though Pete’s eyes. He’s such a curious little guy and it is so awesome experiencing new things with him. I’ve said it before, but Pat and I both marvel at him on a daily basis. At the end of the day, we collapse on the couch and remark about how great a kid Pete is. How he amazes us every single day. How incredibly lucky we are to be his parents. A daily comment from one of us is “our son is awesome”. We may be slightly biased, but he really is just an awesome kid who we are so incredibly proud of and love so much.
UPDATE: Per request, smaller collages so the pictures are bigger 🙂
Dad & I frequently remark how smart & awesome Pete is & don’t feel that we are biased in the least! We are incredibly proud of you all & love you all every much.
The Red Sox game looks like it was a lot of fun and a great family day for the Marrs.
Great post and pictures, Laurie. We had so much fun watching Pete and experiencing his reactions to all things Fenway!! His Nana and Grampa spent way more time watching Pete than the game 🙂 Pete makes everything so special…we are so blessed to spend these times with you, Pat, Pete and Liz!
You should have had a “My first Red Sox game” sign and you’d be on TV and Jerry Remy would have sent you over some free hot dogs. I hope you haven’t introduced him to a lifetime of frustration as a Red Sox fan. Not another 86 year dry spell.
Best Red Sox game all season long. And they lost!
