T-Ball Time

Spring is here and it is time to play some T-ball!! First of all let me start out with saying I can't believe that Landon is old enough to play on a t-ball team! It seems like yesterday that I was saying, "I can't wait til Landon starts to play ball so I can be that Mom in the stands cheering him on." Well the time is here! Landon had his first practice on 4/15. He met his coach "Mr. Jimmy" and his teammates. There are about 12 little boys and two girls on his team. They are all so cute and Landon is one of the smallest ones of the bunch!! Being small doesn't stop Landon from doing his best! He did such a good job running, hitting, and stopping ground balls when they came to him. Coach Jimmy put Bobby to work as the hitting coach at Landon's first practice. He helped each kid with their technique at hitting the ball and made sure they all kept their bats down so that no one would get hurt.

Landon has really enjoyed himself at his practices. He was really proud that his dad was there to help out as well!! Landon has had two more practices since his first one on 4/15. Each time he gotten better and better and becomes more familiar with the rules of the game. I am so excited that he is enjoying playing ball and getting to know other kids. So far he had ruined two pair of pants with grass stains. I can't imagine how many more he will ruin through the years!! He is definitely "ALL BOY" Daddy giving Landon some baseball pointers before sending him to the field

so that he can hit a home run!

Not sure what the boys are looking at but it sure isn't the batter!

At the end of practice the team huddles up to put one hand in the middle and yell "GO EAGLES!" You can only see the top of Landon's head in this picture. Shows you how short he is!!
