Bananas and Baltimore

Ida Jane turned eight months on Cinco de Mayo. As a treat, Mom and Dad thought she might enjoy her first taste of something sweet, bananas.



We were wrong. Who knew a baby would prefer peas?

Ida Jane did, however, enjoy her birthday trip up to see family, including Great Aunt Carol, visiting from Hawaii.



She had fun meeting her Pop for the very first time. She was charming everyone with her bright eyes.



Today she went to her first baseball game, and while she fell asleep in the fourth and mom and dad retreated in the fifth, she enjoyed every minute while she was awake. Here she is right before the first pitch with mom. Since Dad is an Indians fan, and Mom roots for the Red Sox, we've decided the best solution is for Ida Jane to become an Orioles fan. That way, everyone wins. (Except the O's, unfortunately!)

What a lucky girl. I bet Pop was quite smitten with out little pumpkin. A new "doll baby" in the family. Aunt Carol is pretty awesome too. Can't wait to see you next week.
Love,
Aunt Kris, Uncle Jeff, Ryan and Katie
