Ball

Isaiah has started his second year of machine-pitch. We are off to a super start. Here are some highlights of the first game of the season.

It was team photo day. Here is the customary shot. Isaiah is in the standing row and is second from right.

Isaiah's first swing of the season. If you look very closely you'll see his eyes are shut. I'm going to just guess I got him while blinking. I don't "think" he shuts his eyes when he swings.
Do you see that blur of blue? Yep, that's Isaiah running from 2nd to 3rd base. That's speed, pure speed.
And here we have Isaiah about to hit home. It appears as though he didn't run a straight line and veered wide a bit. Actually, he's multi-tasking and will be picking up that bat between him and home. He had to veer out to grab it mid-stride. Amazing, I tell you.

awww what a cutie! I remember T ball. That didn't last long in our house though. Only one summer and that was enough for mine. They hated it and soccer too. I hope he has lots of fun out there!!

Isaiah is having fun, thanks Birdie. I think this year is the best so far as he's more comfortable with the machine-pitch part and his batting has really improved.

Isaiah played soccer for awhile too but got tired of all the running. ha!
