T-Ball Time

Back in February we decided it would be fun to sign Colin up for t-ball.  We really had no idea of what to expect but were so excited.  It ended up being a pretty big commitment - 2 practices every week and a game - but it was such a great experience for all of us.  Most importantly, he loved it and I really think it helped to boost his confidence.  Plus, the kid is good!  Not baseball progeny/next big thing good but he did really well and we were so proud of him.  At least once during every game he would ask if it was almost over, but I think it was mostly because he was a big fan of the post game snacks that were passed out!

Practice started in March and they kicked off the beginning of the season with a parade on Opening Day.  Loved it!!!

We were nervous signing him up because we didn't know what to expect or how he would react.  In social situations Colin is either 100% totally comfortable or 100% totally shy and in 'freak-out mode'.  He was a little shy/nervous at first and then he got comfortable and started to really enjoy everything - practices, games, his teammates.  He surpassed our expectations and we could not have been any more proud of this sweet boy who is growing up way too fast.  Now we can't wait until next year!
