Haters Gonna Hate: I Took My Newborn To The TD Garden And I Don’t Care What You Say About It

This was when I took Barrett to the TD Garden for his first Celtics game. I sang the National Anthem before the game.

Before I had my baby I asked Facebook whether or not they thought it was a good idea to bring my baby to a concert. The answers were vicious and mean saying that bringing a baby to ANY large event would be a disruption and bad for the people around me. Feel free to scroll through the comments and you'll see what I'm talking about!

But my husband and I have made a promise that we are going to bring our baby everywhere with us, and that included the TD Garden for the Boston Celtics vs Washington Wizards game on Oct 30, 2022. I sang the National Anthem before the game and we brought the baby with us! The baby goes everywhere with us to be honest and we wouldn't want it any other way. So far Barrett has been to three concerts, a Boston College Football game, the Celtics game, restaurants, car rides, country fairs and everything in between. Barrett pretty much slept the entire game. (Give him a bottle and he'll sleep through anything!)

Here are some of my favorite photos from the Celtics game!
