Coach-pitch Baseball - Summer 2013

Tessa decided to give baseball a try this summer. Having never swung a real bat nor caught a real baseball before, she did pretty well. Her batting stance was good and she swung straight, she just needs to develop some power to put behind it now. She especially enjoyed the social aspect of playing a team sport and made several new friends. She was sad when the short season came to an end, so I know she will want to play again next year.

Tessa awaited her turn in the batter's box during the first game of the season.

Gymnastics - August 2012

Tessa's first day of gymnastics! She was a wee bit nervous but was ready for her next class the moment we walked out of the gym.

Earlier in the week, we stopped by Flip-Flop so Tessa could pick out her first leotard. I'm glad she chose the pink one. The other ones she considered were animal prints in garish colors!
