First day of T-Ball

DJ seems to have a knack for crushing a wiffle ball off of the tee in Sonny and Eleanor's back yard.  Therefore, we registered DJ to play T-Ball with the local recreation team.  He is a part of the Carroll Manor Orioles, and his first practice was on April 12.


He was a little wigged out at first but once he calmed down, he started to get interested.  Sort of.  More times than not, it was more fun to play with the dirt on the infield than to pay attention.  It's just too hard to resist kicking the dirt with one's cleats.  We are not surprised.  


He seemed to have a good time.  The coach is great, and they didn't spend long doing any one thing.  They ran the bases, hit the ball off of the tee, played catch, and learned how to throw.  DJ tried hitting left handed, and he was a little awkward.  So we told the coach to try righty next time and see how he does, even though he does everything else with his left hand.....
