baseball

Today was our first day of baseball games! And it was super crappy weather! All week it's been beautiful, we have been wearing shorts & having the a/c on in the car.  Today, we were in long sleeves, jackets, and had the heater on.  It was super windy which doesn't help baseball games! 

David's game was first today, they won 12-6! Great job Giants!! (orange team)  David is their catcher, which he LOVES, and I don't, he plays great as catcher and enjoys it but it is such a high stress position for me I think sometimes I'd rather him be out in the outfield picking flowers!  It is pretty neat though, about today David's cousin Scott is on the same team this season, Scott is one of their pitchers (actually pitching in the picture below), D & Scott did amazing this morning during the first 4 innings they were together, they had no runs scored against them!  Good job boys!

 The picture above is David catching, the picture below is David at bat.  He had 3 at bats today & got walked each time!

 Tommy's game was at 11 today.  It was SO much windier for his game than David's making it a lot colder.  Tommy doesn't do very well in the cold, but he played great!! In t-ball they don't keep score, but we won. 

Tommy is in the center of this picture 

 We have spent the longest time trying to figure out if Tommy is right or left handed... He colors right handed, writes left, uses a fork/spoon with his right but picks up with his left,  so of course it would only be natural for him to catch right handed and bat left!! So here is T batting

 And I love this picture of Tommy, he is running to home plate, but is running pretty slow right on the chalk line so that he can "get all the white off"!!

Overall, the boys had a great first day of baseball.  Nathan was in heaven playing at the playgrounds and riding his bike around today.  Kinda funny, in this league they do the numbers on the jersey 1-12 1 being the smallest & 12 being the biggest.  Tommy is #1, David is #12.
