T-Ball, Round Two

After finishing up Little League season, Evan started round two of t-ball at the Y. I now know why the Little League season starts so early. It's hot, hot, hot playing baseball in July. I never thought I'd wish for an 8 am game. Between the heat and doing double duty as bench control mom while Dan and Brian coach, I haven't taken nearly as many pictures. But here are a few from a mid-morning game a few weeks ago.

Dan is in his element coaching baseball. This picture makes me laugh because he looks like he's being so serious. Way to make the kid cry, Dan! I kid, I kid. I'm pretty sure the player had just done something good and Dan and Brian are really good at the positive feedback.





Teddy told me I wasn't supposed to be taking pictures. Man, I thought it was just MY kid who got tired of the camera! Tough guy!









I think the kids enjoy this part as much as anything else. Well, that and the post-game snacks.

Birthdays and Father's Day

I'm waaaaay behind in blogging. We decided in late June to take our house off the market and plan a quick vacation. Still need to do the "get ready for baby" work, so I'm really hoping this kiddo doesn't arrive (too) early!

After Evan's birthday, his best buddy, Teddy, turned 5 just a couple of weeks later. After their t-ball game that day we went to their place for a little water slide fun and birthday cake.





Notice the sneaky sister? Well played, Jill.



Post-cake craziness..





The next day was Father's Day. Dan spent it relaxing on the couch with his favorite little dude.





Dan came home with a box of baseball cards "for Evan." I'm not sure who enjoyed this more (well, yes I am). We'll be replacing the lovely blue carpet in this room and turning it into Evan's "big boy room" soon!
