Spring Training in Arizona!

We traveled to Phoenix this past weekend for what has become an annual tradition: Spring Training! Sean has gone almost every year to celebrate Dan's birthday, and I've gone a bunch of times to visit Jess & Jason. This year schedules and plans aligned that we could do one big family trip! We got to help Dan celebrate his 30th birthday in style, and spend a lot of good time with the Boes Family (and baby Payton)!


Landon went to his first ever Spring Training baseball game on Friday afternoon (the Angels hosted the Indians at Tempe Stadium). It was hot, so the babies (and their Mamas) didn't last the entire game, but still enjoyed the experience!




On Saturday, he attended his first-ever tailgate and second baseball game (the Rangers hosted the Diamondbacks at Surprise Stadium). The weather was amazing: overcast & much cooler than Friday, so the babies not only got to enjoy the tailgate, but also made it through the entire game!





Overall, Landon traveled well and adjusted by taking naps wherever he could (in the Baby Bjorn, on a blanket in the grass, in the car...wherever)! We're so lucky to have such a happy, adaptable baby. He rolls with whatever we throw his way...so, we'll continue to travel and do the things we enjoy with him at our side!



More updates on our little man:

  • Landon is cutting his first 2 teeth (you can actually see them coming through his lower gum)! 
  • Landon has mastered the art of eating solid foods. He opens his mouth when he sees the spoon, and swallows the majority of what we put in his mouth. Now it is time to introduce variety! So far he's eaten Rice Cereal, Pureed Carrots, and Pureed Sweet Potato. This weekend, he'll have his first fruit!
