Baseball Fever Finale

Meet my little baseball player
at about six months old
(with that cute coach I love!!!)...

Check out that swing at seven months old...

Walker was a fun little ball player back then, too!!!

Two years old & he loved bats and balls...
Walker, you have done nothing but melt
your mommy's heart since day one.

So proud of you for practicing then...

and now...

Mommy says, "Hey ya'll...it's Bubba's
last game. Let's get a good picture!"
"Okay, so we'll try for that picture
next year."
This is the way to watch a game ~
chillin' on mommy's legs...
Two great hits at your last game...
I even got the best one on video!!!
You love running those bases...especially
when you get to cross home plate!You also made TWO great outs that game!
Having good 'ole dad out in the field
might have helped!!!To my favorite coach...I love that you coach
our son's teams. And that you love to do it.
It means the world to me and even more
so to one certain little player...
Our favorite little fans...Walker, look how far you've come with
that batter's stance...The Vipers had a great season closer!!!Then it was off to a Pizza Party to
officially celebrate!!!And best of all, get TROPHIES!!!Little boys are so much fun!!!


Walker...Mommy and Coach Daddy are so proud of you! Remember that first strike out at the beginning of the season? You thought that was devastating! I'm so glad you realized that everyone strikes out...and not just once! But you practiced and you started hitting that ball so well!!! We love your drive for playing and being on a team. That's really what it is ALL about! We were so surprised the other night to hear you say you wanted to play fall baseball instead of soccer??? We'll see...doesn't matter to us whatever you do. We just want you to have fun and always do your best. You're off to a great start to many glory days!

We love you, #9!!!

Seeing Walker when he was little brought tears to my eyes. This is the sweetest post ever. He is going to LOVE reading this some day. It was so much fun getting to watch the games with you and Haddie. We can't thank that good looking coach you happen to know enough of all the help he gave our #7. It was a great season!

How funny, Mason had that same baseball set and basketball set (in his baby pictures). Walker is such a beautiful child.. erm, I mean HANDSOME!

Yeah, there's nothing better than sitting on a field watching your little boy learn the hardships of striking out and watching his face light up when he hits a homer. Walker's little face looks so excited to have that trophy in his hand with all of his teammates surrounding him! Such great memories!
