It seems the love for baseball gene that Dan carries has been passed along to Evan. As long as Evan doesn't start talking about his fantasy baseball team (or stealing my iPad to check the scores), I'll retain my sanity. It seems they're not the only fanatics though. Thanks to Evan and his best pal, Teddy, Dan has found a kindred baseball spirit in Teddy's dad, Brian. They're co-coaching the boys' baseball team at the Y this summer so we're all getting our fill of America's pastime. I even caved to the peer pressure and bought a Reds maternity t-shirt.
Last weekend we all headed out to the Louisville Bats game, the AAA farm team for the Cincinnati Reds. Teddy and Evan are only two weeks apart in age, so we reasoned it was an extended celebration of the boys' birthdays and "baseball strategy" for coaching 4 and 5 year olds had to be discussed (I can barely type that with a straight face - ha!). Baseball jokes aside, we've really enjoyed getting to know them and hanging out.
Amy thinks the boys look like they could be brothers. They do get them mixed up at school a lot. Of course they're usually in cahoots so it's easy to do!
(See why I had to buy the Reds shirt now? My inner teenager had to fit in!)

Can't go to the ballpark without buying treats!
