T-Ball

Daddy is coaching outfield - making Ben pay attention is more like it. He looks so serious out there. :)

Go Christian!!!

Christian- 2nd Base

Run Ben Run!


Ben - Right Field.

Much improvement out of Christian this year. Every time he makes a play he quickly turns to Daddy for gratification. He told me today that he was tired of playing t-ball and ready for football. Football? This is definately coming from a conversation between he and his father because I haven't said anything about the sport. He even knows how old he has to be to play. Then he proceeds to tell me how he wants to play football and wrestle with other kids and use his strength. That little guy does love to wrestle and loves to show off his muscles. Ha! Why not soccer. Soccer is great! Fun, safe, engaging, safe....

Ben is the youngest one on the team. 3 years old, but he made the cut. Every time he walks up to the plate to bat he takes his time and slowly passes all of his adoring fans making sure that they all see him as he smiles and struts just so. It is really comical, and it's even funnier to see the parents respond to him. He is definitely loved by all and could care less about playing the game. He mostly loves the attention and cheers he receives when he hits the ball. While running the bases, he once passed third base and ran straight into the dugout to take of his helmet and have a seat. The crowd roared with laughter and I'm sure Ben felt like he had done something grand. Many times he has ran out on the field and forgot his glove, or went up to bat only to realize he left his bat in the dugout. I think he is a little too young to be playing but he begged to play and we caved. I think he just really wanted to be like his big brother.
