Baylor- Fall Ball

I did not get to take many pictures of Baylor playing Fall Ball this season, mostly because I was usually with the other ball playing boys when he was playing or it was Sunday afternoon nap time for the little ones. They played in a great tournament in Southaven Mississippi where they started off "stinkin it up" only to work their way back up to the top. In the championship game they were up by 3 in the final inning. The other team was up to bat with 2 outs. The other team hit a "shot" out to right field and even though our right fielder did everything in his power (diving after the ball) to get to it, it was just a good hit. They scored 4 runs and won the game 8 to 7. It made for a long ride home, but I am very proud of the way they battled back to be the second runner-up.

Baylor also got to try his hand at a little pitching this fall. He loves it!

Cruz

I love this little baseball head, and am thankful that he enjoys running in circles at the field. Of course Mommy never gets to sit down, but at least he loves being outside.





Eliza also does very well at the baseball field, but she was too busy collecting grandaddy longlegs for the scared bigger girls that I did not get any photos of her.

Callan- Fall Ball Ends

Callan had a good season too. He spent most of the games playing catcher and is really learning to get behind the ball. Adjusting to that machine is hard, but I think he has finally got the hang of it.

Favorite Foto Friday

Isn't it just TUTU cute?

... I just had to laugh. Sissy gets up from her photo session and little man thinks it is his turn. He cracks me up without words, I cannot imagine what his personality is going to be like when he starts talking.

Wordless Wednesday!

Pumpkin Fun

Callan could not take it any longer... he has seen too many pumpkins around the neighborhood. If he asked one time he asked five thousand and one times if we could carve our pumpkins. I told him we would not until a few days before Halloween because they would rot on the porch. I hit my limit... I caved... we carved.

All hands IN!

Cruz was not afraid of pumpkin guts!
This was the "Okay... everyone look at me and smile" photo. 1 for 4 obedience... not so hot, and the chance that Cruz looking with a smiling expression was pure luck is quite high... even a fluke.
Baylor was late to the game, finishing up some homework. So he got some alone time with the pumpkin. =)
Our finished product... an owl sitting on a branch, and 3 ghost.
It shall also be noted that it has not even been a week and the pumpkins are ROTTEN through and through on our front porch... but I am saving them for the penicillin I am sure to be creating with all that red and green mold.
