Baseball boy

This weekend was the last game of Jacob's baseball season, which meant 1) a trophy
and 2) snowcones!
We've had such fun during baseball that even the eighteen-game season seemed to fly by. I will miss seeing him bat (this is a serious league--coach pitch for kindergarteners!)
and run (he leads off like a pro!)

and field (he's even had a couple double plays this year!).
Our entire family has loved supporting Jacob. Eric absolutely delights in playing catch and pitching balls; 
Zachary and Michael play catcher for us or take swings off a tee; even little Adam throws his hands up and cheers each time I do (and I do a lot!). I love being a baseball mom.
I really, really love it.
Hurray for Jacob! And here's to several more years of the great American sport.

so he's hung up his soccer cleats for a pair of baseball cleats? And of course, baseball cookies to boot. You're still the ever amazing Amy!

Those cookies look yummy! You look good in that pic Amy, you definitely don't show that you've had 4 kids! Impressive.

Coach pitch is very impressive! Cookies look delightful! I bet you're the best baseball Mom.
