Kids and sporting events

I have to share with everyone that this past weekend we took Jillian to her 2nd Milwaukee Bucks basketball game. This child has been to more sporting events in her short life than I did in my first 10 years..(no need to check with the authorities cause I'm sure I'm wrong.) So far Jillian has been to one Brewers game, two Bucks games, and a triple A youth hockey game at the Petit Center. ACTUALLY, counting the games she went to while en utero, that brings her total games to 5 Brewers, 2 Bucks, 1 Chicago Fire, and a triple A youth hockey game, not to mention all of the high school basketball and soccer games Kelley was coaching at.

Suprisingly she really enjoys these events...maybe not so suprisingly since she went to so many en utero! The first Brewers game was the test...she screamed all the way there, but as soon as we got into the stadium and the lights and noise got her attention she was set. She stayed awake and interested for four innings, then drifted off to sleep for four innings. She didn't even wake up when Prince hit an home run and the fireworks went off! We knew after that game that we might have hit gold with a child who likes sporting events (well Jason feels that way anyway!). It was pretty much the same thing at the Bucks game...she just loves those lights! I am amazed at how well this girl sleeps through things! I am sure these won't be the last games she goes to and hopefully she participates in some sports herself when the time comes...
