In the 'swing' of things...

Baseball and T-ball season is in full swing!! The boys have been asking to play, so we signed them up. It turned out to be a little crazier than I expected because all the games are on weeknights. Each boy has two games a week and one of those days each boy has a game at the exact same time on exact opposite sides of the complex (about a half mile apart). Oh well such is life of a Baseball Mom :D



This is Tucker's 2nd season, last year he played t-ball at the Y, but this year we found a new organization to play for and he was old enough for Coach Pitch!!! He is THRILLED about this and really LOVES it! I am one proud momma, he has hit the ball every time he is up and the last few games, he has been hitting it all the way to the outfield! He needs a little work in the field, on where to throw the ball or when to not throw it, but he can field a ground ball, catch the ball (well, like 75% of the time), and he has a great arm! It is so fun watching him play!





Trey is playing his very first year of t-ball, but is not loving it. He was excited at first, but it is wearing off. A couple of games ago while playing short stop, a boy from the other team (who hit really hard) hit the ball, it bounced and hit Trey right in the mouth. And ever since then, it has been a struggle to get him on the field to play. Once he is out there, he enjoys it, but he is not very happy about playing anymore. I wish he wasn't scared though (or whatever is keeping him from wanting to play..we also think part of it might be because he isn't playing with Tucker and he is used to having Tucker there with him for everything, so that has been a HUGE change for the boys since school started.) He is one of the best hitters on the team. He does need to work on his throwing a bit, but he does a great job when he is actually out there on the field.
