Lily's First Tee-Ball Game

This summer Lily is playing Tee-ball, and it is hilarious!  She has a little friend on our play group on her team and they are having a lot of fun so far.  After two weeks of practice, which mostly consisted of practice catching, throwing, hitting, and most importantly the proper order for running the bases, they had their first game last night and it was so much fun to watch.

Lily was the first person up at bat for the game.

I love that she picked up the ball and ran with it!

After getting on base she decided to sit down and enjoy the game like everyone else.

Her second time up to bad was also interesting.

After taking her practice swings she had an urgent need to go visit the little girls' room so I whisked her off to the restroom while her teammates started the inning.  When we got back though she was next up to bat and did great.

Lily's played right field during the first inning and pretty much sat in the grass the entire time.  During the second inning they all traded places and Lily was short stop.  

She started out by watching the game on the next field over...through her legs.

 After a few hits though she started to pay some attention to the game.

If you have a four or five year old, sign them up for tee-ball.  It is really very entertaining!  Those of us watching the game just laughed and laughed the entire time.  It was fun to cheer for them and enjoy their short little attention spans.
