This is the first year Punky Girl got to play ball, T-ball that is. She has had to sit and wait for three years watching her big brother play. FINALLY she got her turn "up to bat" and has never looked back. After the first practice, Punky Girl picked out the teammate she wanted to practice with because "he was the only one that could catch and throw" she wanted someone who could "really play" with her. I figured out Punky Girl thinks highly of her playing abilities. She doesn't suffer from a lack of self-esteem (no news flash there). She would walk around the fields like she was an eighteen year old B.M.O.C. struttin' his stuff. It was soooo funny to watch her swagger out there on the fields.
Would you doubt this face? She is here to play!
This is called "gungfighter position"--she has her guns out and ready to field the ball.
She just hit a "home run" out of the ball park--good thing a home run in tball means out of the infield. Although, give her a year and she will be really hitting out of the park.
Sliding was her favorite part. Do you notice the blue 'stache? That was permanent for about a month since she had one every game. Gatorade may help the athlete but it wreaks havoc on the athlete's upper lip.

The positive of having a blue upper lip is when your shirt and helmet are blue too. It's very important to color coordinate--even in T-Ball!
I agree with Ber's comments completely.
So glad your back on the blog with all of these wonderful photos. I hope you gave your blog address to your Sister and other family members. This is a great way to keep up with how the kids are growing and blue upper lips.
