Theodore Allen Vanderwiel was born February 27th, 2019. It's crazy to think 7 years have already passed since we said hello and goodbye to our beautiful baby boy. He is loved and so very missed. 

Angels in the Outfield was the first No Foot Too Small event we participated in and has become a family favorite. We've celebrated Theo at home + the ballpark - both in sunshine and chilly weather. Our family and friends have enjoyed CELEBRATING together as we remember all the babies gone too soon. Check out our TEAM THEO photos over the years below! 

We'd love to have you celebrate Theo with us! Join us at the ballpark + order a Team Theo t-shirt or jersey + help us reach our goal of raising $1000 for No Foot Too Small in honor of our son. 

We're excited to come together to participate in 2026 Cedar Rapids Angels in the Outfield, a fundraiser supporting No Foot Too Small. TEAM THEO has raised $10,427 since 2020 and we are excited to continue giving back to an organization that has given our family so much! Every donation—big or small—helps us reach our fundraising goal and directly impacts this important cause.
