Fall Baseball '09

I totally lied when I said I would blog on Fridays. When I set a deadline for myself I just rebel against it. Lame I know. I just can't take the pressure! Just kidding. It's really not that serious. I'll do it when I can! The truth is now that I'm working... things like laundry, errands, a standing lunch date with my husband are getting in the way of my great blogging intentions. Moving on....

Baseball has begun! It's really different this year. Josh has moved up to kid-pitch ball. He's on a team of older kids who are really good. He's not seeing a whole lot of play-time yet, but he's learning so much.

They lost the first game by one point. The second game, they smoked the other team! 13-1 And (I have to brag) Josh stole home!!! We are proud of him & we're proud of his love and committment to the game and team.

Mr. Justin is playing t-ball again. If you remember last spring, he didn't want to play and then he did, then it was too late, blah, blah, blah. So I signed him up, then I didn't tell him until the day of practice so he wouldn't have time to think about it. He's loving it! Here he is with his buddy Brennan. They kind of look alike in this picture don't they? Justin is on the left with the giant batting helmut on his head.

 

Even though it's really time-consuming, I LOVE Baseball season. I love seeing my boys out on the field learning new skills becoming confident with them. Their smiles make the three practices a week and two games per weekend all worth it! I'm just a little worried about how we're going to do it when all three boys are playing!
