Gavin: Fall Ball

Gavin has been playing fall baseball. It has been an interesting adventure moving up to Bantum league. We are now playing with outs, strikes and the boys are positioned at pitcher and catcher. Coach pitch continues.
Gavin team is young. They all played instructional/t-ball in the spring. Winning has not been within reach but good experiences have been. We have mixed practice with games and they have learned a lot. Interesting to see them learn plays and the rules of the game. We will continue to work on implementation!
Too many kids, too much time...

Take me out to the ballgame...

Gavin first baseball game! We had a really nice time going to Gav's game today. It was his team's third game but he had to miss so far as he recovered from surgery. It went well [as well as 5-7 yr. olds can do on a ball diamond]. What really matters is that he had fun.
Gavin had spectators as you might imagine. Nora was a grump for the majority of the time we were there. She wanted Daddy [base coaching]. She wanted Gavin, she wanted to play baseball [not yet sweetie]. She wanted to be a cheerleader [but I don't have a skirt]. Never ending. It all turned around when she saw Gavin on third base through the fence and became a big fan of "#2". She decided to cheer him on.

Dylan was excited to point out Gavin or Daddy from time to time and enjoy his lunch in the stroller {Thank goodness}.
