So Braxton started baseball last week. It has been so fun to watch him play on a team. He is really pretty good on his own but then when he gets with all the kids, he is too busy watching them to play. So we have had to try to talk him into aiming at their heads when he bats (he gets nervous, since we have always taught him to make sure no one was in his way when he hits.) They all get to bat once an "inning", and they get to run the bases. Since there are no outs, it always ends in a tie. When they play outfield it looks a little more like football than baseball. Because three and four year olds have to do everything themselves they all think they need to get the ball. It doesn't matter where it lands on the field they all go running for it and then pile on each other as they try to wrestle it away from who ever got it. Once they get the ball they are supposed to throw it to first. But they always just seem to jump up and down with the ball high in the air as if they are the winner. It's really hilarious. I love watching them play. I'm just waiting for Braxton to get over the fact that there are so many other kids there and play as he does at home with us as a family. Hope you enjoy the pictures.
