Springtime means baseball!


Levi is on his third Little League team this year. They chose the name "Seahawks" (don't tell them that's a name of a football team) He, of course, loves hitting. . . but he also loves playing: catcher (cool outfit!), 1st base, pitcher, 2nd base, third base. . . . well, essentially anything but outfield! So far he has gone through two hats, torn his shirt, and did a good job staining his white pants. Why do they make WHITE baseball pants anyway?!?!? That has to be every baseball mom's question, as she scrubs grass and mud stains from white pants for the umpteenth time. Our baseball photos will be very realistic this year. They played a game BEFORE the pictures. . .groan, sigh, mutter. Does anyone know a first grader who does not LOVE to slide to any base reguardless of need?!?!



Calder and Ansel have also caught the baseball fever. They are constantly playing baseball together. Ansel has taken to carrying around a ball and bat everywhere he goes- Just in case! He can be heard frequently saying "pitch it mommy?!" and "run the bases!" And if no one is around, he just pitches it to himself. I have to admit, he does a better job pitching it to himself, than I do.

Hi Cami,
I love that you have a blog. How fun! It looks great! Any trips to Utah planned this summer?
Love,
Kathy

I wish there was. But, no. No summer trips to Utah planned. My Family is meeting in Idaho instead. Lani's new residence in Boise is the perfect mid-way point. Hopefully we will be back in Utah for one of the major holidays, ie. Thanksgiving or Christmas. -cami

By the way, Remi is going to Iraq in a few months. She will be training medics. Two over seas duties, not really protocol. Oh well.
