Baseball season has started up for us again. We now officially have three kids we have to shuttle back and forth to practices and games. So for my friends that I see on a regular basis, I'll see you around June sometime. But contrary to what you may think, I love it. It's fun to watch the kids as they grow and get better at sports. You can really see a difference in them from season to season.
This past weekend we watched my oldest son Z. play in a weekend tournament. He is with a new team this spring. And we decided on this team not for their winning records (which they didn't really have) but for the coaches and parents of the other boys out there playing. We are really enjoying being on this new team. Since we've joined them, the boys have finally started to click and they are finally playing pretty good. They finally finished a tournament and got a bit of hardware (ie. trophies, medals, rings) to show for it. They didn't win this tournament so they didn't get the championship rings (which I'm still laughing over) but they were all so excited to have done so well. Hoss my youngest son is now the official bat boy for this team and even he received a medal. Talk about an excited 6 yr old.
So if you start to hear more and more talk about baseball than you really want to, I'm sorry. But that's pretty much all I'm going to be doing for the next 3 months so I won't have much else to talk about.
So pull up a chair, grab some sunflower seeds and start spitting, it's baseball season.

We are starting our first season as a baseball family. Luckily M and C are playing t-ball on the same team. Still, life will be interesting when their games conflict with T's, who may have some softball games in surrounding towns. :)
We've started too. My husband is coaching this year, which has thrilled my son. We have several boys who have never played baseball before, so we are a "young" team (in our league, players are assigned randomly to each team). We lost our first game 13-12, but considering we were losing 6-0 at the end of the first inning, we were excited with the finish. I love baseball season!
