On Saturday night we went to the girls very first baseball game! Oscar received tickets from work and it was a 7pm game, the girls took a nice nap in the afternoon and we packed pjs for the drive home. We parked rather far away but sprung for a pedicab ride to the stadium, which was a lot of fun for the girls.We decided to pack a dinner rather than the expense of feeding us all a ridiculously priced hot dog there, so we brought our own turkey hot dogs, chips and hummus and raspberry almond coffee cake. It was good and a great way to keep the girls in their seats and watching the game.
It was the Nats vs. Mets and wonderfully for us the Nats won! 
The girls enjoyed all the clapping, the standing and clapping for home runs which were also accompanied by fireworks, and learning about the game. Around inning seven we went down to the playground (yes National Stadium has a playground for kids) and let the girls run around. Luli loved it and climbed up high and ran around quite a bit. Fiona on the other hand was nervous and scared of all the big kids running so fast around her, it was rather chaotic. Once we were done running around we began our trek back to the car (sans pedicab) and then got the girls into pjs, brushed teeth and headed home. Amazingly the girls stayed awake the whole ride home!
