One hundred and seventy-two...

Avery and Rowdy both earned this medal for participating in T-Ball this year. I think these are pretty cool. A trophy is nice but these were really nice. The bottom photo is an assignment I received from an on-line class I am taking...I will probably be posting many of my assignments here...so I apologize in advance if I am boring you with all the photography stuff.

When Rowdy and Avery's team is on the field, guess who likes to hang out in the dugout? I don't mind because it is actually the safest place for him. This is all considering his second favorite place to be is out on the field and I have had to chase him out there several times.

the rays of sunshine in the sunrise photo were done in photoshop, but these rays of sunshine and sun flare where done completely by accident : )

The game was over. We had just eaten hot dogs from the consession stand and she says to me, "Mom, can I go run the bases?". Do you remember when you were a kid and you would just run for no reason? As an adult it really does seem strange that we have to carve out a 20-30 minute time slot three times a week to run (exercise). Imagine how different it would be if we ran for no reason.

He is getting better and better with each practice. He is enjoying himself this year and showing a confidence that wasn't there in years past!

Ron was asking Bodie to pick up the balls on the ground and put them in the bucket. Picking up things and putting them into a container is a very big thing for a almost two year old. So naturally I thought I would get some cute shots of him doing just that...well, to my utter shock he did this instead...

...are you kidding me! Way to go Bodie! Do you think I should contact the Major Baseball League now?

What is it about those cute little blondie wisps of hair coming out of her t-ball hat that just makes me smile and so proud of her. Maybe it's because she is one of three girls on an all boys team. (we did that so we wouldn't be going to two different games and practices) Also, it might be because although she is a solid two years younger than Rowdy, she keeps up with him like they were born on the same day. In fact, as I was at their practice last night I could help but feel as though they were the same age...she was rounding those bases as fast as she possibily could and doing a pretty good job of throwing and batting.

Side note...Ron bought a new bat just for her and of course it is PINK and she could not be more thrilled!

We started t-ball last week. Taking pictures of the kids and keep track of Bodie has proved to be difficult. I need to bring his stroller next time!
