Walking and Baseball

Okay, so everyday this week we have been taking a family walk in the evening (you know, to encourage little Moose to go ahead and be born already!) When we get back to the house both the boys beg to play baseball. They get a few swings and then we come in and start the whole bedtime routine. Scott has actually gotten pretty good. He can hit quite the line drive and insists on running to "first base" after he gets a hit. Blaise on the other hand, has just figured out the proper grasp and stance... now to master actually swinging the bat instead of lifting/dropping it off his shoulder. Of course, his inability to actually hit the ball doesn't bother him in the least, so everyday he gets a few pitches too. Tonight, one of those pitches bounced off the top of his head. It was the funniest thing... had me laughing hysterically for a few minutes- which is generally not a good thing when you are several days beyond 40 weeks pregnant, but maybe that will help get things started? Oh, and don't worry all we have is wiffle ball sets and Blaise's is kind of like wiffle ball coated with some kind of foam, so it didn't hurt him.
