Charlie will be 3 years old at the end of April. That means that he’s 3 in Little League age! We have a Sunshine Division at our local League that starts at age 3. I played softball starting with t-ball until I was 18. That’s about 13 years of softball. I loved every minute of it and wish I had time and resources to play again as an adult. Maybe someday.
Until then, I’ll be scrubbing mud and grass stains out of my little one’s pants. His first practice was this past Thursday. It’s going to be an interesting season filled with a lot of playing in the dirt and a little bit of baseball in there.
Excuse the pictures, I was swinging Owen in his carseat and freezing my butt off at the same time while watching.
Today is the first day of the new Messy Monday Link-up at Mom’s Messy Miracles!

How cute. Around here, little league doesn't start until age 5. Both of my boys tried it, but neither liked it LOL.
ReplyDeleteSo cute I wish I had gotten mines into this instead my hubs thought football was it he hated football. I should have stuck to my gut lol
ReplyDeleteOh, teeball time already!! We haven't started yet- not till the 26th here in CT. Too cold I guess
ReplyDeleteAdorable! I love watching little ones play sports, especially baseball. It has to be one of the cutest things to witness. I can't wait for my daughter to start sports!
ReplyDeleteSo cute! In our town they start on kickball at 4, then t-ball, then baseball/softball.
ReplyDeleteAww how cute! I remember the days watching my little brothers play baseball, they sure did love that sport!
ReplyDeleteYou'll have your hands full with laundry indeed, but so much fun to watch him play! I hope the mud and cold goes away soon.
ReplyDeleteI wish we had a 3 year old league! Teeball starts here at 4, so my kiddo will be able to play next year. I played from 4 years until 13 years, and hope to pass down the love of the sport to my two boys!
ReplyDeleteToo cute! I will def have to keep your monday link up in mind next Monday when I might be a little bit prepared! Awesome!
ReplyDeleteI haven't been to a a t ball game in a long time. It's always such fun watching them figure out how to play. I don't have a kid activity or food this week, but maybe I will next week.
ReplyDeletesweet! I love seeing kids play baseball.
ReplyDeleteSo cute! I love when little ones do sports. I want to sign my daughter up for soccer this summer.
ReplyDeleteEven though it looks frigid in your picture, when I start to see t-ball and soccer games, it makes know that spring is here. Yay for that! Have a great season. It will warm up sooner or later.
ReplyDeleteMessy, but I bet it was fun. We are contemplating signing our girls up for baseball. I'm a little scared.
ReplyDeleteLOL Good luck with the grass stains! I have four boys and I have never quit figured out how to get them out.
ReplyDeleteMy oldest used to like to play sports when he was younger, but now he's too busy hanging out with friends. My daughter and son have never been that much into sports LOL. I played summer league softball for 8 years when I was a kid. I miss those days!

Love the pictures despite you freezing your bum off! Looks like too much fun!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cutie! I wish I would have started my son earlier, he is 6 and just starting out baseball!
ReplyDeleteI will never forget Jason's 1st day at T-Ball - hit the ball and headed right to 3rd base! :)
ReplyDeleteIt looks like they are having a blast even if you were freezing your butt off!
ReplyDeleteAh! Grass stains are the absolute worst! I enjoyed looking at your pictures...it looks like you guys had a fun time! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteMessy? I'm sure you are not looking for a picture of my son's clothes! I swear he rolls in the mud some days!
ReplyDeleteHow cute! the helmet is almost as big as his whole body!
ReplyDeleteCuteness! Good luck with you party!
ReplyDeleteLooks like fun. We hope to get our oldest son in baseball soon. Have fun with the grass stains.
ReplyDeleteThis was from Beth@Frugalfroggie
ReplyDeleteHow cute! I hope he has a great first season!
ReplyDeleteSo adorable. He looks ready to hit a home run!
ReplyDeleteSuch cute pictures! What a fun sport to get started in!
ReplyDeleteI love baseball nights! Graham is playing 8U now and that amazes me!
ReplyDeleteWe can't wait for our son to be old enough for tee ball! Baseball is one of our favorite pastimes. Great photos!
ReplyDeleteI love watching little kids play sports, so fun! My son can't wait to play on a teeball team next year
ReplyDeleteGo Braves! Looks like a totally fun Messy Monday to me!
ReplyDeleteWe went walking at the park yesterday and it's by the baseball field! We could hear the announcers and all, it really makes it feel like summer/spring is here!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait for our season to start! I've sat in the freezing cold for soccer games, but our t-ball starts so late it should be warm enough by then. :)
ReplyDeleteMy nephew was playing on the swing this weekend with a HUGE puddle of mud underneath. Good thing he had boots and snow pants on! I linked up my homemade goo/slime recipe!
ReplyDeleteHow cute is this! One of my boys played t-ball at 4 and it was the cutest thing.
ReplyDeleteHow cute are they. My oldest played baseball one year, but he has been in soccer since he was three, that seems to be his sport of choice.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun sport for them to be in.
ReplyDeleteso cute! My son starts t-ball this year, too! I see lots of playing in the dirt in his future!
ReplyDeleteHow cute! We don't have that many programs for 3 year olds other than gymnastics and soccer. I want to sign my son up for little league sports.
ReplyDeleteI have to remember to link up with you next week. I always have a messy craft going on!
ReplyDeletefeel free to still link up! It's open until Friday
ReplyDeleteAdorable! It's always so fun to watch the little athletes on the field :-)
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a ton of fun! I haven't played baseball {or softball} in years.
ReplyDeleteBaseball, yay! I wish my sons were into baseball but sadly they just are not. The middle one loves soccer, we are fall sports people here I guess. Nice pictures!
