tee ball

Noah is playing tee ball this summer! Since he turned five in April, he was eligible to play with 5-7 year olds. We thought about doing soccer but he always said no. For some reason, he's more interested in baseball. He likes to play in the backyard with Daddy.

So here are some shots from his first practice a couple weeks ago. This was supposed to be his first game but it ended up being a bye. So when he played the following week, it was so cute. After his first hit off the tee, he ran to third. =) Once he got that figured out and and was on first and had to run again, he ran straight on from first onto this little coaches mound behind first base. It was so cute. Wish I had got it on video b/c now he won't do that again.

Noah is throwing grounders to daddy. That way, there is a little more control as to where the ball goes. If he overhands it, you never know where it will end up!

Cuteness

It's still a little difficult for him to open his glove to get the ball in there, so mostly he uses the glove to stop the ball and then he picks it up =)

Here comes daddy's grounder! Noah does seem to enjoy playing, especially if we pile on the praise. He looks so happy when we do that =)
