T is for T-Ball

The day we found out we were having a boy, Jesse's first comment was that he was going to be a baseball player. His nursery was a baseball theme and his big boy room is also done in baseball. And...his middle name is Michael which Jesse says is because of Michael Young who plays for the Texas Rangers (but it's actually my dad's middle name so he's actually named after my dad). Anyway...baseball is supposed to be in my son's blood so yesterday was a milestone day for us -- Grayson's first t-ball game. He, of course, plays for the Texas Rangers. And Jesse is, of course, the coach. Needless to say, watching 13 4-year-olds attempt to play any organized sport is going to be comical and it was. I hated to break this to my husband but I'm not sure if my son is going to be drafted to the Majors just yet. I know we have a few years to get there so maybe the skill and interest of the game will come with time. He seemed a lot more interested in his cheering section and eating dirt on second base than he did with the actual game. But...it was all rather humorous and a good first attempt!! Go Grayson and Go Rangers!!

I would like to know when my son became old enough to play sports!! It is too soon for this.

 Jesse helping Grayson with his swing. One sock up, one sock down...that's how we roll!

And he swings! But...he ran to the pitcher's mound instead of first base! Ha ha. 

 Making sure his fans are paying attention before he bats!

 Looking handsome in the dugout!

 Getting ready to high-5 the Angels after the game. 

 1... 2... 3....GO RANGERS!!

 Post-Game: Grayson & Dad!
