It's that time of year again! We have been enjoying t-ball practices and games. We are playing (well, Isaac is playing) through the YMCA and we really like it. The coaches are great and so encouraging with the kids. And the kids all get to have several chances with the coach pitching the ball to them before they have to hit it off of the tee. And they make sure that each kid hits the ball and gets to run...no outs! I love it. The pictures below are of Isaac's first game. He is #15.

Go Isaac!
I love this...he was running from 1st to 2nd base and was not going to go any further until the kid on 2nd moved over. He's pointing and telling them to run to 3rd.
This is what Josiah does during the practices and games. He and this little girl catch bugs. And there are plenty to catch.
He also talks her into playing chase. I laugh at how Josiah can get older kids to play with him. Today I told him that there was a little girl that might like to play with him. He said, "No, she is too little. I want to play with a bigger kid."
Olivia also likes to look for bugs. There are some really slow flying bugs here called Love bugs. Even Olivia can catch them.

I don't have pictures of today's game, but Isaac made a home run and was awarded with the game ball. He was absolutely thrilled! He was given the ball and didn't even know why. We had to tell him that he made a home run. Ha!

Isaac, I'm so proud of you for hitting a home run!! You are amazing. I just can't believe it!!!
Josiah, you are really good at chasing. I can't believe you tricked Buff and told him you were Isaac!
Olivia, did you catch many love bugs? I love you, my little buggie!
Mom- You'll have to go back and look at the Sigh of Relief post. I added a couple of pictures of Olivia.
Aw so precious! WTG Isaac!!!!! I love the pics Amy
Congratulations on your home run Isaac! You look so handsome in your uniform....wish we were close enough to watch you play, chase Josiah and help Olivia catch the "love" bug. Amy, I noticed in the pictures that noone was sitting in their car to watch the game due to 40mph wind! :)
I just love looking at your pictures, you are such a talented photographer!
Mom- I'll pass on the message.
Kara- Thanks. And he was pretty excited.
Katy- Jay tried to send you guys a text as soon as he hit the home run. But my phone wasn't with me and I had a lot of 3's running through my head, but wasn't sure if I knew where they went. :)
And, no. We wish there was a breeze to blow the humidity away. But there actually isn't a place to park around the field. It makes for lots of fun getting to know all of the parents.
Sarah- Thank you so much.
