It's a YMCA league for 4 and 5 year olds, and one of our little SB buddies is also on the team, and his dad is coaching it. It's just a great scenario, where we get to hang out with friends and feel comfortable with Nate participating. Apparently I have been missing out on the joy of watching 4 and 5 year olds play T-ball! It is hilarious. They have no idea what they are doing, they are running in circles, they're picking flowers, they're piling on top of each other to get the ball. I love every minute of it.
This video shows a pretty good hit! And then getting lost on the way to first base ...
Blake is out on the field the whole time, cause they need extra coaches to keep all the kids running in the right direction, and to help Nate if needed.
When did he get so big.
Um, then he walked off the field and sat down for awhile. He gets bored in the outfield.
Giving high fives after the game. (Nobody won, nobody lost!)
Last weekend I took some of the adults with SB to a Bats (local minor league team) game.
And since Nate is playing T-ball now, I took him too. Before the game he had a hotdog and fruit, then during the game he ate popcorn, cotton candy, a sno-cone, and ice cream--Ha! And we only made it to the 4th inning! We had a great time, but it was sooooo hot, and once we got past Nate's bedtime I could tell a meltdown was imminent. I was right--it happened in the car. But it was a lot of fun for me to get to take Nate somewhere just me and him (and 20 adults with SB, but who's counting).
Oh, and if you can't tell, we are not athletic people, or even interested in sports. So this venture into T-ball is probably a short lived novelty. :) But we're enjoying it while it lasts.
Running Home!
