Baseball-Mania

Thank you, Aunt Erica, for sharing your Rangers tickets while we were in Texas!! Baseball has now been in almost every conversation since. I saw a t-ball set at Wal-Mart and had to get it. The first words out of Jay's mouth in the morning now are, "Lets go play BASEBALL!!" He's actually pretty good for a 2 year old! Karah has even started saying something that resembles baseball!! (Ba-BAW) Yesterday after dinner, the whole family went outside to play baseball. Mommy and Daddy even took turns batting! It was hilarious. Dan pitched the ball to me, and I hit quite a few. I pitched the ball to him, and it was apparent that baseball isn't his favorite sport to play. I started making fun of him, yelling "STEEERIIIIKE!!" Karah was sitting in the wagon nearby. One time after I yelled, she imitated my voice ("EEEEEE-UUUUUUH)!! It is kind of hard to describe in writing, but it was high pitched first, then slid down to low, just like I did. Dan and I were rolling with laughter. She has also learned how to play catch. We are working on getting a video of that. It is hilarious!! Jayden has been such a good big brother. He loves to play catch with her. When he saw Daddy and I hitting the ball without the Tee, he had to try. He hit one by himself, then needed some help afterwards. The neighborhood kids have been so great with the kids. They were great outfielders and coaches to Jayden. We had so much fun! I think that baseball is here to stay!!
