Play Ball!

Today was Hank's first Tigers game and man, did he have a great time. We had perfect weather and he made it through about 8 innings before melting down.

Hank's first impressions


A lady handed Hank a little paper schedule and for about five minutes he wouldn't stop staring at it. Here we are in the middle of the baseball field right where Magglio Ordóñez plays, and he wants to look at a little piece of paper.

"Cheese!"


He was a little unsure about the Merry-Go-Round,
but after a few spins he warmed up to it.


He was way into the big foam claws in the gift shop.


"RAAARRR!"


I think we wore him out.

This weird yellow orb in the sky

There was this weird yellow orb in the sky this week. It turned out to be the Sun and we had just forgotten what it looked like. We took some pictures of the boy (surprise surprise).

Hank Loves Italian Cookies

Hank is very cute when he says "Cookie," "Please" and "Yay!" so we tried to grab this (rather long) movie where he says all three.



Also he's got some orange sunglasses to wear to Tigers games this summer and he looks very cool in them.


Are you talkin' to me?
Are you?
Talkin' to me?


I'm the only one here,
so you must be talkin' to me.
