T-BALL

Its ridiculous. SERIOUSLY! We are SO proud of this boy. And its a BALL GAME. I mean REALLY. Get a grip parents.
But no, not us. We're loving Cam and this baseball thing.

First, its SO fun to see him LOVE it! He's into it big time. Concentrates and is all "game faced" when he's on the field. The other thing, he's good. Now, I know I sound like one of "those" parents, but since the kid has been swinging a baseball bat of some kind and throwing any ball he can since the age of about 8 months...we kinda figured he'd be good. We also realize that he's playing with kids that are doing this for the first time and haven't been hitting the ball in the backyard with mom and dad for a few years. Disclaimer aside: here's our official brag

He can hit!
He can throw pretty straight!
And he's learned how to field a ball pretty well, now there is a nasty bruise on his chin...

Stu's been helping as a volunteer coach and Cam's been thrilled with that. The one night daddy wasn't able to be at the game Cam was a bit more nervous. So when he's in the majors Stu will be his lucky charm :) We also enjoyed the night he played against his buddy, Ben. They would grin at each other when one was one first base and the other was fielding first and have a short chat. TOO CUTE! Also, we have some awesome coaches! They don't take it too seriously and yet they're teaching the kids all kids of stuff! We've been so fortunate to have the best first organized sports experience!

Anyhow its been fun! And apparently here the ballpark is the place to be. Every night we see people we know. One night there were some little girls yelling, "Hi Cam, Hi Emery!" and I don't know them. Cam looks up at me and says, "Yeah, I know a lot of people". Cracked me up!

Emery is more into the playground part of the whole baseball thing. She also likes to see "dabid" (david) and say hi. (our youth minister's son). Its a beautiful thing!

AND aren't their uniforms the CUTEST???
