After some stretching to get all good and warmed up, it was time to start practicing throwing and catching. Since Daddo wasn't there yet, Boom stepped in to play with J.
A few minutes later we looked up and saw Daddo walking across the field! He made it! Just in time to throw grounders to the J man. They practiced fielding using the alligator chomp:)
Jackson did good catching, throwing and fielding--it's amazing the difference a year makes.
Is this guy ready for some ball or what?
At long last, it was time to hit! Jackson squared up next to the tee, got his game face on...
and rocked that ball!
Then he took off and ran the bases like Elvis Andrus. I was so proud, and it was only practice. I am going to be going bananas when he hits it during an actual game!
At the end of practice it was time to choose a team name. Jackson suggested the Tigers and said that they could "roarrrrr!" All the other kids agreed that sounded like fun, too. Gooooo Tigers!!!

How lucky are your kiddos that Dad will come straight from work to their practices! Good Daddy!
