Joey’s First Yankees Game

Before Mike arrived with the rental car, Joey demonstrated his stellar driving technique.

In the rental car, Joey spent a considerable amount of time playing with his doodle pad.

This was the view from our seats.

Joseph liked watching the game and playing with his Momma.

Yankees Hat

We bought Joseph a toddler size hat when the boys and I took a trip to NYC last year.
As you’ll see in the pictures below, it seems he like Daddy’s hat better.

At first, he’s not exactly into it.

Before you know it, he’s happily knocking it off his head and his silly parents are putting it back onto this head.
That's not how you where it JoeyUh oh you're going to lose your hatHey what's that

Ah, it's a hatCheck out those teeth 

Then he seems to pose for the camera…

A Day in Leesburg

On Friday, Jessica and Theresa went to Leesburg for the day.
Even though it was rainy, they had a wonderful time.

Good friends hang out under one umbrella.

Fredericksburg

We took a trip with Tom and Gloria to Fredericksburg.
It was awesome.

First, we ate at a really good Irish restaurant.
Joey liked being held by Momma, Gloria, and playing with Tom.

He also liked sitting on the seat by himself.
IMG_1326

After a while though, he got tired of the Paparazzi.

It was little cold outside but we braved it to check out the Apothecary.

On the way back to the car, some silliness ensued.
