Cubs first game 3/22

Brock had his first game for the cubs on Tuesday. He was so excited to finally be playing a "real" game" that he was a hyper mess all day! He had to hurry with his homework before we could head out to the game but once he the all clear to go get dressed he was bouncing off the walls with excitement! The kids look so darn cute in their uniforms and some of them look so tiny! Anyways, Brock was first up to bat and was all excited to be number one. He hit great and made it to first base! We all cheered so loud and he was grinning from ear to ear.

He also plays third base which bores him a little because no one ever hits to third and the kids are trained to always throw to first base unless the coaches yell otherwise. Whenever someone is up for bat Brock is always in ready position and as soon as one of his team mates gets the ball his hand is in the air saying "throw to me!". He did actually have the ball thrown to him and he was able to tag a player out which was the highlight of the game for him! Nothing like getting someone out for the first time.
It was wonderful that a lot of our family came out to cheer him on. He loves having people watch him and talks about them for a few days after the games. After the game we went to villa pizza with my mom to celebrate his great game and to also fill my craving for greasy pizza!

I personally can't wait to see the next games! I'm definitely one proud momma!
