Batter Up

"practicing" while big brother is playing

Love this pic of Camille loving on Victoria while we were watching Coop play

Cooper played his first baseball in October. "Fall Ball" was an instant hit with him. He really thought he was a major leaguer. When I signed him up, I figured it was tee ball....well, much to my dismay, it was machine pitch. He had never even swung a bat or had a glove. Every other kid seemed to be a professional, but he didn't notice and thankfully was a quick learner.

His first game started late so while we waited, we watched the other game on the field finishing up. One of the "line drives" hit the kid on the pitcher's mound and BOOM--he was flat on the ground. Then during our game, another line drive and BOOM--knocked a tooth out of our shortstop. Cooper looked up at me and said, "Am I gonna die?" I was actually pondering those same panicky thoughts, so I just said, "I don't know...go ask your coach"

Grandma and Grandpa came in town to watch our all star!
