#2's Turn!

#2 also played baseball with #1, yes I put them on the same team so that I wouldn't have to do too much driving and have games every night for 2 months. He was afraid of the ball at the beginning of the season. The coach ended up telling the boys they couldn't warm up together because #1 would really scare #2. By the end of the season he had played catcher for another pitcher. He had caught some amazing pop flies and had really grown as a ball player! I am so proud of him and he is excited to play next year!




Catching Up

Since I really have little positive things to share right now I decided to catch up on the things I have missed over the past few months.
The first thing I will catch up on is pictures from baseball. I will start with #1 he is quite the little baseball player. He was the starting pitcher for his team this year. He did quite well. He would frequently face three batters an inning. His throw is so fast that by the end of the season none of the catchers on the team could catch for him because they had injured their hand catching his fast balls. His coach estimated his fast ball at about 78 miles an hour. I would really love to get his pitch clocked to find out how accurate that was. He made the All-Star team and they started practicing tonight. We are pretty proud of him.



This is a picture I took so I could remember how long he is getting. He is so excited he is only 1.5 inches shorter than me. He measures atleast every other day to see if he is taller than me yet! Look how long those legs are....
