The First Game

Chloe had her very first t-ball game Saturday morning. She said on the way there that she was a little nervous. (It was really cute.) She did fantastic! You couldn't even tell she was nervous. She even tried to hit without the tee! So proud. The game was organized chaos. All of the girls on out team are new...first year to play. Which means in a nutshell, they like to play in the dirt, and frequently forget what they should be doing. The first three batters forgot to run to first base after they hit the ball...even with my standing behind first base yelling for them to "Run! Run! Run!" My favorite part though was watching them fielding the balls. So cute to watch their faces as it rolls past them. We played three innings, where we went through the entire batting roster. They started getting the hang of it by the end. I think they will be a lot better next weekend. What matters most is they all had a blast. Oh and the slushies were a great way to cool off afterwards.

1st practice

Chloe girl had her very first tee ball practice yesterday. She did really well and loved it.

She ran bases, did warm up stretches, caught grounders and even took a turn at bat. She only showed a one sign of being like her Momma..."Mommy, I'm hot." I think I heard her say it about twenty-some times in an hour and a half. Other than that, her attention stayed focused (as well as a five year old can stay focused.) I only caught her digging for worms in the field once. Hee hee. She seemed to enjoy herself very much. We have lots of practicing ahead of us. She is a wee bit afraid of the ball...who isn't? She did very well at bat, she can hit them pretty far for as small as she is. She played first base and third base and liked both. Hopefully she will take after her Mommy and be a first base regular...wink wink. She was very excited that the two head coaches asked her Mommy to be an assistant coach, of course I said yes. She thinks that is very special and so does Mommy. We are all very excited for the next practice.
