Reed's First T-ball Game

Reed started T-ball. It's a sight to see a bunch of three and four year olds being cohersed to play "baseball" when half of them would rather be playing in the dirt in the infield and the other half are all but running to the playground that is just 75 yards away. It really is like herding cats. Before the first game we really only practiced in a park and since it was the first time we played on an actual field we might as well have just thrown out all prior practices.

Anyhow some of the pictures turned out really cute since I was pretty much on the field with Reed most of the time. We needed lots of parent participation in order to keep things running smooth so it allowed me lots of picture taking opportunities.

It was smart thinking on the part of the t-ball base manufacturers. Each of the bases honk or whistles almost like a train. Reed thinks they are pretty cool.

Did I mention that Reed likes the train sounds that the bases make?

Here's Reed batting. I like how you can see his eyes getting big as the ball approaches.

So cute!!!

Reed was pretty excited about hitting and running to base. He was excited enough to break out the guns and show me his muscles.

Elsewhere.... we had a good time when Ba got to visit. Gracie is now old enough to remember her Ba and definitely gets some quality time with her Ba.

I think Reed was dressed up for a friends wedding. I know I am biased but he should totally model for baby gap.
