You are either born with it or not

Madeline got a T-ball set for her birthday so we took it with us to Becky's on Saturday to use it for the first time.  While Shawn was getting it all out of the package, Madeline was using the bat and ball like golf.  She says to me, "Look Mom, I can play baseball good!".  Goes to show what sport she was taught first! 

After getting it all assembled and a few short lessons on how to use it, she was off.  She quickly figured out how to hit the ball and then run the bases. 

Shawn looked at me and says "She has a good swing!".  Ah, proud Daddy! (and Mommy too!)

I will post pics when Becky downloads them from her camera!

And, I think we have turned a corner!  She first asked to go to the animal store yesterday.  I was getting ready and Daddy told her she could come help him in the yard.  She chose to go out in the yard over the Animal Store!  Yippee!!!  Not that I hate taking her to the mall, but honestly, Bass Pro is not the store I want to go to!

Here are some other pics from the rodeo....
