McGwire was supposed to have his 1st T-ball game today. You didn't know they let midgets' play T-Ball? Well they do... my McGwire is so small.... Not only did I kinda put his wrong birthdate on his form (ok I lied... they don't let them start until they are 5 in Lehi.... STUPID).... but he was 2 heads shorter than any kid there. But I think that's what made him so stinkin cute because he knew exactly what he was doing out there! They had cancelled his game when we got there but they still played a practice game.... thank goodness... he would have been crushed if he weren't able to play tonight!
And then there is my cute Macee! It's a darn good thing she looks like a ballplayer because she is lacking in skill..... I still ask myself on a daily basis how I have a dancer and not a ball player! Oh well.... time will tell!!!
Mays really wanted to be in the baseball pitcher.... but below... this is what he and Murphy do while the brothers... and sister play ball! Mick's city league team.... the Pirates are going to be playing for Championship tomorrow.....
Speaking of City League..... bear with me... I am going to go off on my soap box for one minute. For those of you who knew the "High School Athletic Jessica...." I must apologize now. I was so intense and so competitive.... now that I am older and wiser and more importantly.... a mother... I am appalled to see GROWN MEN that are so worried about winning a baseball game that they can degrade 11 year old boys and use horrible profanity and body language.... I can't even begin to explain what we have seen up at the ball field this week. I think we all need a constant reminder that.... "It's just a ballgame..." Ever heard that before? After years of playing... and years of being a "you know what" on the court and ballfield... I am ashamed at that person I was! Really... I am so glad my kids won't ever get to see that side of me! I pray that my kids inherit Eric's calm, rational, athletic personalities otherwise we will need boxing gloves right?
K - I better go! I have some work to get done tonight and would like a few hours of sleep... BTW - I was finally talked into Facebook and I would really like to know how all you wonderful ladies can blog and facebook.... I am seriously such a slacker!

Thats all I do all day. Is play games on facebook. Oh I didnt' tell you that you might get addcted too. hahahah! Its about time you updated I almos stoped checking. What some cute little boys you've got and a gorgous girl too. She is getting sooo big or should I say old?
Cute post! I don't know how you do it all, seriously!
I love the pictures of McGwire in his baseball outfit. He's so cute. I have some videos of Maddux from their first game. I'll send them to you tomorrow.... Remind me, if I forget. Macee is so cute in her baseball stuff, too. I love that girl. She is so nice and thoughtful. I loved your city league speech...and I'm guessing you're talking about a certain guy who coaches a team that rhymes with SOCKIES? (I was going to put something else, but it might have been too obsene for your blog...ha ha) Just a wild guess. Matthew said he was so obnoxious. As for you talking about yourself playing sports... I don't think there's anything wrong with being competitive, as long as you're not doing it at the expense of someone else, right?? I can't picture you being like that. If you did get out of control, then I would love to see video. ha ha Well, I'm finally off to bed. It has been a LONG day. Hope you guys have a fun weekend!
K- Look at all your stinkin cute ball players you have!!! How fun! Hope you had fun even if it was raining! I'm so sad about McGwire and Boston not getting on the same team!!! I don't know what happened there. I love the black eye, and the striped pants, you guys look like you know what your talkin about! :o)
You are amazing that you are going to ballgames without Eric! How fun for him to go to Alaska. Good luck on these 10 days. Your amazing! Karen
I hear you on the baseball stuff! We are right in the middle of all that too - in fact, it's all we do!! But ya, it's ok to be competitive, but for goodness sakes, stop swearing and yelling at the umps and the kids! I hate that part of it.
GOOD FOR YOU JESSICA!!! LIKE I ALWAYS TELL MY KIDS 'ITS JUST A GAME UNTIL YOU GET PAYED TO PLAY' PEOPLE DO NEED TO CHILL
