Play Ball....again!

It's Day Two of the world series, well at least for me and Cooper. It's more like Day 5 for the rest of the teams. We played yesterday morning and blew them out at 28-7 and then headed out to get some lunch because we had to be back at the ballpark to play another game at 6. That game was more of an intense game. The other team led the entire game, their coaches were protesting every call the officials made. The dear hubby was working the dug out and screwed up the line up and two of our players batted out of order. It wouldn't have been pretty for him if we didn't end up winning that game. With that said we came back in the 5th and went up 25-20 and held them in the 6th to 25-23. By the skin of our teeth, we pulled it out. We were going to come back to the hotel and let the boys swim, however that plan was scratched when they fell asleep on the 10min drive from the ballpark to the hotel. We were all exhausted. I also managed to loose Cooper yesterday. That ballpark is pure chaos. There are alot of fields and lot of teams and we are packed in there like sardines. It's like being on the streets of New Orleans during Mardi Gras. I panicked, couldn't breath. Another dad took off with me, he went in one direction and went the other. I felt like the idiot only after I realized that he was sitting next to our dugout eating m&m's off the ground. I had tears in my eyes and he thought he was in trouble for eating the m&m's. I actually could have care less what he was eating, just thankful he was there. On a much lighter note, Carter ate an entire piece of Tuna roll at lunch. No gagging or vomiting, he said he liked it but never asked for another piece. But I was proud that he tried it. We are now getting ready to play another game today at 11:30. If we win that game, we are done for the day and hitting the streets of Chattanooga. If we lose that game, play another at 4:30. It is now double elimination...but we are going to be here till the end. Go AMERICANS!!
