Joey sits though Owen's T-Ball

Joey has decided to sit up unsupported and enjoy the view of what's going on around him. He loves to watch Owen and looks for him all the time.


He also loves to feed himself now, including munching on Cheerios, Club crackers, baby puffs, Ritz crackers, soft green beans, soft peas, soft fruits like apple, pear and peach, and baby wagon wheels. He would much rather put food in his own mouth (THANK YOU VERY MUCH!) but still pleases me by eating from a spoon when asked nicely. We gave him spaghetti noodles the other night and he went WILD! He had them all over the place and still managed to get a few into his eager little mouth! It is so much fun watching him learn how to feed himself!
And now my big boy Owen, um, plays(?) t-ball. More like plays in the chalk, plays in the dirt, picks flowers, whines that all he wants to do is hit the ball, etc. But he knows the order of running the bases and will do it with a little bit of prompting and guidance from parental coaches! And by the time the game's over he's covered with chalk dust. I've been thinking about buying some iron on decals and putting "Owen aka Chalk Boy" on the back of his shirt! What a stinker, my little batter! Watching t-ball is a blast!
