Little League for TJ

This year, Thomas moved up from t-ball to machine-pitch Little League, and Ed coached his team. He did really well and was very into every aspect of the game, as you'll see in the pictures. We struggled a bit with his frustration when he didn't get on base but otherwise played hard. His team was the Green Goblins.

Celebrating an out. I love this picture! Apparently he gets his competitive nature from his parents.

Catching. All of the kids are supposed to try catching, and most don't care for it because they don't like getting hit by pitches. TJ did pretty well and seemed to like it unless he got hit by a pitch. The kids all have trouble keeping their throwing hand behind their back, so they frequently get hit in the hand.
