7/16: Nationals Baseball Game

Gavin's 1st experience on the Metro! He liked sitting with Pop looking out the window. Whew - this was also my first time ever on the Metro, I'm glad we survived! It's crazy having to keep track of when you have to get off and on, sometimes to have to run to catch the next one. Lindsey and Gavin had the doors closing on them at one point, good thing Jason was there to save the day! Our ride on the metro to the baseball game was good, not too crowded and no creepy people near us - the ride home was another story!
We made it to our seats! Thankfully there was free "stroller check-in" - we had no room at our seats for anything other then ourselves.
It was soooo hot/humid. (Can you see how sweaty Gavin was?) He napped for about 30 minutes, which was a nice break for us trying to keep him entertained and it also gave him that extra energy to make the late night out.
Awake and half naked! We had to keep the boy cool somehow :) Here he is cheering on the team!

A family shot before we get back on the metro. We left at the end of the 7th inning trying to beat the crowd, but several other people had the same idea as us and it was still a madhouse. You can see Gavin's new skill of pointing above - He's saying "Daddy, Push me over there!"
I'm a bad baseball fan, I can't tell you if they won or lost?!
On the ride back home Gavin started having a mini meltdown and we had to do some serious entertainment to keep him busy. (Sorry to all the passengers that had to listen to us sing Little Bunny Foo Foo over and over and over!) We also had a little incident behind us of an annoying guy making a teenager mad, thus leading to the teenager showing him the knife he had in his pocket!! Creepy!
