Well, Tyler had his first game last night and what an awesome high for TJ and I! We have been waiting for this day since he was young enough to hold a bat and swing. As we all know, according to TJ, baseball is life! He has been working with Tyler for years to perfect his swing first and foremost and most recently, throwing and catching. Tyler looked so cute in his uniform and his over sized hat! He of course has all NIKE gear! Nike bag, shoes, Easton bat and glove and pants. He looks like a pro even down to the black under his eyes just like his daddy wore. He was first to bat yesterday and did VERY well. People sitting around us were all talking about what a "slugger" he was. In T-Ball the rules are you hit and run to only first base and when the next batter hits you take the next base and so on. He enjoyed every moment of running each base and was so excited to score the first run of the game! During the game the coaches rotate the players through all the different positions to make sure that each child gets a chance. So this game Tyler played second base, short stop and catcher! I loved watching him. But the ultimate highlight of the night, which unfortunately I missed due to the sick babies, was the last at bat. Tyler was the last to hit and the last hitter gets to run the bases as far as they can get to like the real players. So Tyler steps up to the plate and just smashes a line drive, does a one hop and continues into the outfield! He ran the bases and got a HOME RUN!!!!! He's the man! TJ was the happiest daddy ever. His first game and already smashing home runs! And by the way, they won the game too! Here are a few shots of his first at bat.
