Softball Days for the Queen

Softball officially started a week ago last Saturday, and Reagan loves it! Of course, things could change by the end of the season (or by next week for that matter) but we are so glad she's having fun. Reagan has a very easy-going, encouraging coach...no, it's not her daddy....or her mommy. :) She is learning alot about softball but also about being a team player. She is playing with her best friend, Payton, which she couldn't be happier about.

Team huddle on the first game day!

There are only 6 girls on each team which is perfect. Just enough for the infield, and everyone gets lots of turns at bat. The coach pitches three balls and if they don't hit during that time, then they have two chances to hit it off the tee. Great system!

What a cool sight....Payton's Mommy, Heather, and I used to play softball together too! Who would have thought that we'd be watching our girls play on the same field one day. :)

Payton hitting the ball off the pitch! Go P!

And yes, as you can imagine, the girls LOVE going to watch Rea Rea play ball. They actually enjoy the sand more than the softball, but that's ok. We just strip them down when we get to the car, and take baths when we get home.

Here's the girls having their sandwiches in the back of the car before the game started.

The bathroom is not exactly close to Reagan's field, so I decided it's just as easy to use our port-a-pot. Hints the "chair" that Taylor is sitting on. I've decided this is one thing I never thought about doing for Reagan when she was little, but just seems normal with the four. Normal is sometimes a little different with quads but we make it work for us.
