Noah's First T-Ball Game

Well, having boys has officially started. Last year we asked Michal Kate if she wanted to play t-ball and her answer to Richard was "Daddy, I'm a ballerina." So we didn't go that route with her, she greatly enjoys her tumble/cheer, ballet, and tap! This year, Noah really wanted to play baseball and he is old enough, the cut off being April 1st! We have been practicing a couple nights a week and then Monday was his First Game as a Green Monster!
Before the game Richard let Jack play on the playground and Jack chose to go down the very short tube slide head first, well he didn't catch himself and with all the rain we have had so here is our little pig pin. He was not happy about this at all.


This is Noah's first up to bat. In our league we play 2 innings and everyone bats and runs all the bases, there are no outs, and no score, they are just trying to teach the kids the basics of baseball. At each at bat they get 3 pitches and then they hit off the t. He did hit it off the t and it rolled right in front of him. My favorite part is all the kids when they hit the ball they all turn around to the coach catching behind them like "what do I do now!!!" of course the answer is RUN! This is Noah's second up to bat and he hit this ball of the pitch! The very first pitch! I was a proud mama.

After running all the bases and coming into home.
Obviously, not where he is supposed to be but I thought it was cute!
Go Green Monsters!
