Summer Baseball

This summer, Cambree was old enough to play Tee-Ball. Kaleb was also in the Tee-Ball age group, but he would have been a year older than the little ones that signed up to play. So since he has been practicing hitting a ball being pitched to him, Cory asked to have him just play on the Pee-Wee team with the 6-8 year olds. He did just as well as the other kids on his team, so we were glad we got him moved up.
Cambree only wore the helmet once! It was bigger than she is!

Every week when it was time for Baseball, I had to convice Cambree that she was going to play. She was so excited in the beginning, but then wasn't quite sure about wanting to play after she did it a couple of times. Once we got there and she got going, she did pretty good. She just didn't like to get "sweaty." Here's how she thought would be the best way to play 3rd base:

Kaleb was a lot more outgoing this year about playing. The first year he played when he was 3, he just clung to my leg and we always had to run the bases with him or else he wouldn't do it. Now he punches his fist in his mitt, just waiting for the ball to come to him:

He really liked the batting part, but not so much the running part!
