Baseball Wrap Up

jack's looooong baseball season wrapped up on sunday morning.  it's fun for sure, and i love that jack loves it, buuuuuut the games are almost two hours long when you throw in that they have practice before and that's a long time to hang out in the grass with two little brothers.  by the end, we were all pretty used to it though, and glad that jon was home to see the last game and the play offs.  have i mentioned that jon was gone the whole month of june? more on that later, but yeah, all those games by myself. woooo!

all the boys rotate through all of the positions.  catcher is a favorite.  gear is just good.

jack called it the bony armor.

iphones.  how did we live before them??? we've even recently stopped using ours as phones (more on that soon too i'm sure), but they still do their job as child entertainment.  i've been reading "last child in the woods" and maybe kids should be able to sit through baseball games without electronics with nothing but nature to keep them company.  yes.  maybe so.

it's amazing how much better jack is hitting with jon home to work on it with him.  i thought i would do it with him, but yeah, that never happened.

rowan snuck down into the dugout.  jack loved showing him around. and showing him off.

he even popped his hat on rowan's head and let him run through the high-five line ahead of him.

at the end the all received a medal.  and donuts.  and chocolate milk.

jack always asks if there are extras for his little brothers.  this time there were.  the evidence is everywhere.
