This past Sunday, Ben and I found ourselves overbooked. Ben originally thought the animation geek-fest he wanted to attend started at 5pm, but it actually started at 2. This directly conflicted with my noonish practice time since driving 10 miles in LA takes at least an hour.
I could’ve stayed home and taken what some would consider a much needed nap, but no. I am determined to: get my game back, lose the baby weight and (even more importantly) get the little dude accustomed to people and new places.
So, I marched in to practice and announced that my son would happily hang with anyone willing to babysit so Momma can scrimmage. There were many takers. A lot of new girls hang out after practice to watch/learn the game and (score!) many of them are Moms. He spent some time with the new girls but was fussy. The true saver of the day was Evie who had a sling in the car (from use with her amazing lil dude, Fin) and put off packing for Rollercon this weekend to calm Tuckasaurus Rex.
Tucker was out almost immediately.
He woke up eventually and when Evie wasn’t flying him down the line Super Baby style, he was watchin some derby. Though Tucker has been to the derby before I’m pretty sure this is the first time he actually watched.
