ball game

Phewww....I have a lot of pictures for this post. Sorry.

So we hit a big milestone for our little family. We finally have a child old enough for organized sports. Man it really feels like a long time coming. Oliver has been dying to get in there and play since he was 2. We signed him up for t-ball with his cousin Jack. I think he is going to love it. Although today before the game he got a little teary eyed...because he didn't quite know what to expect, so cute and so Oli. Once we were there he really loved it though.

Man it is amazing how little he knew about baseball. I doubt we have EVER had a baseball game on in our house. He is going to learn quickly I think. Now look at those beautiful mountains. What?? Amazing.


My brother in law Joey Coaches a little league team, I think in my professional opinion that he is a great coach. He was nice enough to give Oliver some pointers when it was his turn to bat. Cortney needed to be able to take the pictures, so he couldn't do it.


Rob kept trying to go and play. Poor kid so hard to understand.


I think I must be cheering in this picture. I sure hope so. (I love how Rob is just crawling in my lap, and I don't even seem to notice)


Goo girl chowing down on a sandwich. I love this baby with everything in me. She is awesome.


Rob and Carolina spent most of the time just wandering around. I thought this was so cute because the both found their brother's hats. They were acting so grown up.


Look at that eye contact. If it was me I would have been closing my eyes.


Poor Cali...she had 2 soccer games and two baseball games to go to today. 4 full hours of sports. ayeyeyaya. Then on top of that these girls were crawling all over her.


Tyson's game was after this one...so he warmed up a little.


Meanwhile...Oliver and Jack paid close attention to the game that was going on.


I love Jack. SO much personality in such a tiny body. Look at that face. Awesome. (Joey wants his kids to wear baseball pants...Jack's are a little big, but nothing compared to how they fit last year...it was a riot. And of course Oli is begging me for some.)


For the first like 6 plays of the game Oliver would run and get the ball he got it every time. So much that I was laughing really hard. At first he would run the ball all the way over to first base. Finally I ran over and told him to THROW it to first base. I love how serious he is.


Jack playing catcher. Oliver said Jack was making this face because the other team didn't know how to hit the ball off of the tee "AT ALL". hahaa


A mad scramble for the ball.

It was a great afternoon. I was so proud of both Jack and Oli. It is so weird for me to be at this stage. So I know I am posting tons of pictures but...he it is a first for us. And very exciting.

One funny thing from the game...Oliver got the ball after the other team hit it and he ran to first base...then to second. Then he waited for the next hitter and ran to third. It was so funny. Cortney ran out there and told him that it wasn't his turn to run the bases. Too cute.
