After 3 weeks of practices, Mason had his very first T-ball game last night. Derek has been waiting for this day since the day we found out Mason was boy (a little over 4 years ago). Mason was so excited to play and his excitement continued through out the whole game. It's a little hard to watch 3 and 4 year old kids being told how to play baseball, but I got through it. They only get through 2 innings in the hour game, but everybody got to bat twice. Mason hit the ball twice and loved running the bases. Derek is the coach and he did a great job. He had it so organized that he batted 10 players in 9 minutes when it took the other team at least 25 minutes to bat 10 players. What else would you expect from a high school baseball coach! Here a few pictures from the game. I love this little man!
Pre game warm up with uncle Ryan. He is the only kid wearing baseball pants and cleats. Again...what else would you expect?
Pre game huddle. Very serious.
Derek has taught Mason to hit left handed. Mason knows no other way. He is getting used to hitting off the T again. He has has been hitting pitched ball for almost 2 years now so it was a change.
He played left field and first base. He loved getting all the balls thrown to him at first base. He did great too!
After a long hot game, he wanted to do the splits for the camera.

He is a little man! What a stud. I'm glad that he loves baseball - for Derek's sake!
It is so cute that he is wearing little baseball pants and shoes. Blake and I keep talking about getting Gavin into some sport. Maybe someday.
Yeah! The fun has begun! He is so cute.
