My Oh My! We took Tyson to his first Mariner's game!

From the moment we found out we were pregnant, one of the many thing we were really excited about was bringing our baby to Mariner's Opening Night.  Adam and I have made going to Opening Night a tradition and have gone every year since we've been together.  This year was especially special for us because we got to bring our 3 month old son.

Adam worked that day and I was on Spring Break from school.  We were both SO excited for the work day to be over so we could get what we had been waiting so long for started.  I bought Tyson a Mariner's hoodie a month before the game and couldn't wait to put him in it.

We weren't really sure how it was going to go with a 3 month old.  It was the furthest we had driven him (from Bonney Lake to Seattle).  He is generally really good in the car but not driving a constant 45 minutes before made us wonder how it was going to go.  The unknown and firsts are always kind of scary and having your first child means there are a lot of unknowns and firsts.  Tyson did great, he slept most of the way there and talked to us for the rest.  He is quite the talker!

Adam packed him into the stadium using our Baby Bjorn for the first time. Adam and Tyson both looked so cute together, there's just something so special about seeing a father and his son at the ball park.   We sat with Staci and her boyfriend Brett.  Staci surprised us with giving Tyson an adorable little Mariner's hat for Tyson's first game.  It's a little big now, but I can't wait until he grows into it.

The game went great.  We sat in the Club Level, hoping it would be a little calmer, but we just so happened to sit next to a couple really loud, young guys.  Every time Tyson fell asleep, they would yell and wake him up.  We had know idea how loud a Mariner's game could get!  We learned our lesson and bough earphones for the next game.

Tyson is going to be one spoiled boy.  He will be going to the Mariner's game to celebrate his Auntie Marci's birthday at the end of the month.  We rented a suite for the night so Tyson's Mariner's game experience will be in Club Level seats and Suite Level seats so far.  We hope Tyson grows up loving the Mariner's as much as we do.
