Ady's and Riley's First Brewer Game!!! GO BREWERS!!!!

On Friday, August 27th we brought the twins to their first Milwaukee Brewers game.  I am a huge BREWER fan and am beginning to recruit 2 new fans!  We went with four of our friends (two couples).  So we had 6 adults to our twins - talk about totalling outnumbering them!

We got through the game with zero meltdowns and didn't get home until midnight!  WOW!!!!!

How to get through a Brewer Game with zero meltdowns:

• One "Sharing size" bag of M & M's.
• One bag of Nacho Cheese Doritos, Cool Ranch Doritos, and Frito's Scoops.
• Two toddler lawn seats to make them feel cool and part of the gang.

BELOW - How cute are those chairs?????  They were just munching away and sucking on their tailgating drinks (juice)!!!!!

• Their own water bottles (theirs were filled with juice - I better make sure to make that understood!) as we enjoyed our tailgating beverages.
• 4 cell phones so they could talk to each other and play with them (Sara and I know not to give them ours because they have re-programmed them, called people, texted people, and thrown them into pools before).
• 2 potty's in the parking lot (We took them to the driver's side of our van, opened the door, dropped their pants, Sara held each one at a time, I blocked the view, and they peed between our van and a car next to us).
• Shoulder rides into the park.
• Once there...
• A picture with the Bernie Brewer statue.

BELOW - We spotted the Bernie Brewer statue on the way in and had to stop for a picture to get the full experience!!!!

• Sitting down and switching laps/seats about 87 times.
• Their own water bottle...again!
• Their own tub of popcorn.

BELOW - Ady and Mommy - Popcorn smiles!!!!!!             

                                               

RIGHT - Riley is trying to clap and eat popcorn at the same time - that is tough!!!!!!!!

• The WAVE!
• Watching Bernie Brewer and hoping for a Brewer home run so he can go down the slide - COME ON FELLAS!!!!
• Switching laps/seats about 43 more times.

BELOW - Daddy and Ady - Trying to explain what the hell is going on (the rules of baseball).

THE WAVE - Oh man did we love it - we tried to teach the concept and follow it all around the park.  Sometimes they just kept their arms up for a while.....

...Then we got to the point where we yelled while we did the wave - oh my was that fun!!!!!

 

• Cheering/watching the sausage race!
• Handing out high-fives for hits/runs and just to do it!
• Two potty breaks to the restroom.
• FINALLY watching Bernie go down the slide after a Brewers 7-2 win (Home runs would have really helped...)
• Watching a 15 minute fireworks show after the game out in the parking lot - total luck at that because we didn't know about the fireworks show until it was announced at the game!
• DORA on their DVD players on the way home.

WHAT A GAME - I think I saw a total of 15 minutes of it!
