Itty Bitty Sports

OK, I haven't blogged in a while, but these past couple of weeks have been crazzzeee!

When Sean was born Fred was soooo excited to finally get his son because he was going to have someone to do sports with. Well, this summer we put him into the YMCA program Itty Bitty Sports for 3 & 4 year olds. It included 2 weeks of soccer, 2 weeks of baseball, and 2 weeks of basketball. It was a 6 week program so I've waited until it was finished to blog all about it.

SOCCER-BEND IT LIKE BECKHAM!



Sean liked soccer except for when it was time to play the game. He would dribble the ball up and down the field, but Fred said he would not budge when it came for game time. (I don't think he'll be the next David Beckham!) Bummer!



BASEBALL-MAJOR LEAGUE!




Next came baseball, all he wanted to do was hit the ball, he didn't care whether he caught it or ran around the bases he just wanted to hit the ball. In the video he hit the ball and has a pretty good swing.(like I know anything about baseball) Do I think he'll be the next Sammy Sosa? I don't know but if he keeps practicing on his t-ball stand that Fred went out and bought him, he might be OK.



BASKETBALL-WHITE MEN CAN'T JUMP (OR CAN THEY!)



Last came basketball, now I don't know a lot of successful white players in the NBA(Larry Bird, Danny Ainge, and Christian Layton (HOTTIE), Oh and Steve Nash) Go SUNS! To watch this next video you have to nod your head to the left!



I missed his basketball classes, because I had class, so Sarah, my sweet little babysitter, took some great footage for me. Not too shabby on the backwards shot! I think what Fred got out of this, besides being oober excited he could watch his son learn about sports is that Sean really enjoys playing sports and doesn't want to play with dolls (not that there's anything wrong with that) Sean is a boy and likes to do little boy things. I think that Fred is not so stressed out now,(you know he has 3 older sisters) knowing that his son will want to play sports.
