Sports begin....

So this past weekend we had our first sports practice with our kids. Stephen is on a T-ball team called the Bats and we are so excited. Since Stephen was 2 years old he was throwing a baseball (like a pitcher) and has been interested in baseball ever since. We signed him up this year to play t-ball and even though we have only had one practice, it has grown his love for the sport even more. Saturday was our first practice, and the coach is a neighbor so she even let Scottie participate in the practice. The coaches are great with the kids. Stephen learned about trapping the ball, running the bases, throwing properly and hitting off the tee. Some of these skills we have practiced in the front yard but others we are sure glad he is in t-ball for. He wants to learn to catch a ball this season and I think he will! He hit the ball the farthest this practice and was very proud. I look forward to updating you on the season but for now here are some pics of our first practice!!
