Happy One-Month Birthday!
Braeden turned one month old today! To celebrate, we took him to Joe’s to watch the basketball games. We went early, for the first group of games, so we were only there about 10:30 - 2:00. Our friends loved having him there and played “pass the baby”. Mom and Dad love that game because we get a break and can eat lunch with two hands.
Later that night, I went back to Joe’s to watch the Illini game. Brian stayed home with Braeden. Although the bars in Illinois are smoke-free, people tend to be sloppy drunk by the time the late games come on during March Madness. We didn’t want to take any chances so Braeden only got to go during the day. Anyway, it was nice to get out and have some “normal” fun with my friends - watching basketball and drinking beer. Just like the good ol’ days… except for my one beer limit.
Sadly, the Illini didn’t win this one for Braeden but he’s got lots and lots of years of frustration and disappointment ahead of him. He may as well get used to it now.
