Baseball surprise

Last night when Colin went to bed I told him there would be a surprise on the couch when he woke up.  It was Ant Ant.  She came down to watch Colin play one of his baseball games.  He was so excited.  All these pictures are from her.  It was an exciting game.  One of the players on Colin's team tried to steal 3rd base (which you aren't supposed to do in T-ball I guess)  They are looking more like a regular baseball team and some of these kids have really learned how to hit. 

 Colin is on the right.  He told me he was playing 2nd base so i was video taping the guy on the left for a while.  I think the sort of look alike :)  The boy in the middle is Colin's best friend Noah.

 

 Playing catcher. Colin is number 4.  Ant Ant made a shirt that said "Colin's number 1 fan." Colin thought it should say "Colin's number 4 fan" since he was number four and couldn't figure out why she put number 1. 

 Now he is playing pitcher.  We played 3 innings this time since we were the last game played today.  So they got to try out a bunch of different positions.  (they switch halfway during the inning to a new position)

 He's a natural. Look at that ball going straight for him. 

 I'm not sure if he caught it right away but he took off straight for home to tag that cubs player out. 

 Noah slid into home right before Colin did so Colin had to slide too.  They aren't really supposed to slide but its still fun to do. 

Thanks Ant Ant for coming and cheering for the Braves!

 Joel had a great time today at the game.  He picked flowers and played under a tree with a bunch of older kids. Maybe this whole t-ball thing isn't so bad.
