Swimming - Day 2 / T-Ball - Practice 3


Day 2 of swimming went really good.  They practiced kicking, going under water, kicking with a noodle and floating on their backs.  After the first class Mia has already gained the confidence to jump in the pool both with being caught without floats on and not being caught with floats on.

 Mia decided to exercise before practice started so she ran from the opposite fence back to me.

Swimming lessons in the morning and then early evening t-ball practice is a pretty big adjustment for her.  As you can see here she had a little difficulty handling it tonight.

 Mia batting and running to first base!

Organized sports! First up T-Ball.


Tiny nikes, tiny bat, tiny glove and tiny helmet - meet Mia the ferocious t-ball player.  Okay - ferocious doesn't fit anywhere in that sentence... because let's face it - she's just way too adorable looking.

Last night we went to get her a glove and ended up with - well - everything she could possibly need ... bat, balls, glove, shoes, helmet, bag and a tee.  She and I took all her equipment out to the basketball court here in the complex and practiced this morning.  It was a lot of fun.  Unlike my little brother she didn't complain about her hand having a headache.  ;)

When we were going thru everything at home before moving I found my t-ball medal from playing in Northeast Texas when I was Mia's age so I'm super excited about her playing.  Plus it will give us the opportunity to meet people with kids Mia's age.  Here's hoping she is placed on a laid back team and there aren't your cliche crazy parents involved.  :)
