Jets Catcher

Baseball season is going well this year.  Alexander has been thoroughly enjoying it and is getting so in to the game.  Currently his favorite position is catcher. 

Here he is in the dugout getting all the gear on.  I honestly don't know how they manage to catch and throw the ball with all that stuff on, let alone see the ball coming.  Heck, I don't know how they catch the ball with the glove on.  I hate wearing a glove.  I guess that's one reason why I never played softball :) 

Here he is warming up with the pitcher.
I love watching them play and cheering them on! 
GO JETS!

Alexander+Baseball=Fun Times

Baseball season is in full swing.  So far Alexander loves playing the catcher position.  I love watching the boys play. Some of the boys are so in to the game while others, well, as we had a talk with Alexander, they (and he sometimes) need to get their heads in the game.  This past weekend the Jets participated in a tournament.  The first game was ugly--ugly weather, ugly playing.  The second game however was impressive!  The boys seemed to have settled in and were more focused. The weather was MUCH better.  The Jets played so well, they were in the lead, but sadly lost at the end. I'm excited for several more fantastic games this season.

Soccer Time!

This morning, bright and early at 8am, John Paul had his first soccer game of the season.  Jaime is the coach again and most of the teammates all go to Ascension with John Paul.  The game turned out to be pretty good despite the boys not being able to practice due to rain on Monday, their practice day.

And one of a future soccer player...
