Last night was the boys first ever T-Ball practice! They are so grown up!!
We got to the field a little early so we let the boys run around and play (with their cousin and best bud Cooper). I think they were later disappointed to learn the soccer goal was not used for T-ball.. and poor Cooper didn't get to use his "football bat" and there was no "golf club" for Brock to use. So much to learn!
It was VERY hot and the boys were pretty crabby by the time things got started (especially Brock and Cooper who also missed their nap on this day) but they all did pretty well.
For this practice the coaches were assessing their "skills" to determine what team to put them on. They had little score cards that the coaches rated them on Fielding, Batting, Throwing, and catching. Brock wanted nothing to do with any of it at first, but by the end was getting more into it. In the batting section he hit both balls that were pitched to him and one off the Tee. He got a "4" out of 5 in this area. Not bad for an almost 3 year old! (oh, and he choose to use the only pink bat available.)
Brodey did a great job doing what the coaches told him to do and did really well in fielding and throwing. And looked soo sooo cute. :)
We are not too sure if Brock is right handed or left handed. He bats both ways equally well and normally throws with his right. Last night however he would catch with his left hand, then take is glove off and throw with his left hand also. Very interesting.
They have their first game next Saturday at 9am! Can't wait!

They are just too cute! This will definitely make for some entertainment!!
That is so funny about the pink bat. Kent's favorite colors are pink and purple. I think it's because he was one of two boys in his preschool class and these colors were new to him. We are doing VBS right now and you should see his crafts- a whole lotta pink!
