baseball season

Ahhh...the joys of another season of baseball. So, this year we signed little john up for babe ruth baseball in clovis because we wanted him to be involved in a more competitive league. the league we participated in last season in sanger was terrible! Little did we know when we signed him up that we would have to make the 30 minute trek into clovis 3 times a week (2 games & 1 practice). It is getting old now- especially when the two little ones are hungry because we have to be there to warm up at 5:00 and the games don't end until 7:00. Then keeping them happy can be tricky. Most nights we don't make it home until 7:25. Then we have dinner, reading and baths which means straight to bed. It is worth it though, because we have a great coach who has been giving little john great batting tips. He sees the potential in him so he has really been working with him. At the beginning of the season he was one of the best hitters on the team, but something changed with him and he has been swinging funny. He has an incredibly powerful swing and if he could learn to get his body positioned right, he is going to slam it!! He is getting it and every time daddy and him practice, he gets better.
