Garrett and I were a little worried when we put Dallin in T-Ball at 4 years old that he might get a little bored because it is not as fast paced as other little league sports like soccer. Boy were we wrong. This kid has an innate love for baseball. I am not exagerating when I say that that is all he does or want to do right now. He does not ever want to play with toys or anything of that nature. We are either out in the circle letting him hit off his Tee or pitching to him and chasing the balls down for him ,or we are inside pitching to him and letting him hit. Occasionally we play catch too. We have a really soft squishy ball to play with inside. It is hilarious that he is so obsessed. He does have baseball genes from both sides of the family so I guess he is blessed or cursed with the love. I thought he would be running around in the outfield, but he sits there and puts his mitt on his knee and gets ready every time the other team is up to bat. It is the cutest thing ever when they are so young. Any little boy in a baseball uniform is darling, but even more when it is your little boy.
The first game he wore his uniform normal, and then we watched the Yankee game that week and now he wears his pants and socks up like A-Rod. Without any ideas from his Yankee loving dad. He also had to go buy batting gloves because that is what the real baseball players wear.
