Water, water everywhere

While Isabella enjoyed the game much more than the zoo, she did like slashing her hands around in a tub full of toys and water.

Play a song for us Mr. Piano Man

I wonder if Isabella has considered a career in the music industry?

Future batgirl

Isabella had a ball at the game. In addition to watching the game and people, Isabella enjoyed spending time in the play area (which also included a room full of free baseball video games for kids of all ages). She's taking a break from a few innings of serious playing.

Daddy, do I know that man?

Isabella really enjoyed her first Major League Baseball game. She especially liked people watching, such as the rather happy group sitting behind us.

Momma, I wanna see the big bird

Ashley was all smiles but Isabella had other ideas. She was trying to focus her attention on the big screen that displayed a flashing red bird.

View from our seats

This is a view from our seats, though the camera is zoomed in a little bit. The game was the closest I've ever sat during a Major League Baseball game.

Chillin 15 rows up

When we walked inside Busch Stadium a Cardinals employee asked where our seats were located. After I told him they were in the top deck, he offered us seats down closer - way down closer. Here we are, 15 rows up from the great St. Louis first baseman Albert Pujols. Too bad my Nationals lost but the amazing seats made my evening.
