The Perfect 3yr Old Day

Part of growing up is finding out that we don't always get to do what we want to do. And though we often remind Gehrig of that, Saturday turned out to be a day where everything pretty much went his way.

First, Daddy's baseball practice was cancelled which meant a whole day together!! Yippee! The Gs and I needed a good catch up day after missing him so much Masters week. We started the day at Panera for some yummy breakfast (G's choice).

Then, Gehrig and Daddy bought G's first pair of baseball cleats. I'm not sure who was more excited! Gehrig rode around in the car all day with the shoebox proudly in his lap and B told us all about getting his first cleats. It was the cutest thing.

Our next stop was Party City. Gehrig turns 4 next month (sniff sniff) and we let him pick out his party theme and accessories. It was fun making the hard decision!

Gehrig's friend, Cooper, invited him to go play putt-putt next. He said afterwards, "Mom, we had SO much fun!"

After a quick lunch and nap, we headed to Gehrig's tball team pictures and exhibition game! This Daddy's dream come true. :)

The Dodgers.

Introducing the line-up.

Swinging the bat...he did a great job!

And the slide into home!

Gehrig's biggest fan. :)

Playing the field. Something about this pictures makes him look old.

Opening day = inflatables and carnival rides. 3yr old perfect.

Finally, we met Jessica and Eric for dinner. G loves them and literally clapped his hands when we told him we were going to meet them! (At "Peppers," aka Chili's.)

I don't know how we can do much better than that! Now back to real life!!
