Baseball and Grandpa

First I have to gripe about how expensive sports are and he's only 6!  What is it going to be like in 3 or 4 more years?  Registration fees, equipment, snacks, a coach's gift, a trophy, and then over priced pizza at the local pizza joint. Josh and I have decided to start saving now.
On that not we asked Josh's dad for a "scholarship."  He so kindly offered to pitch in $50.  Plus he offered to meet us at the store in Beaverton then take us to lunch.  "Okay!"  You don't have to ask me twice!  Plus it was at Spaghetti factory, yum.
Owen had fun making music with the bats.  I found this very interesting that he tolerated the racket.  But I guess when it is his racket he takes it differently than when it is someone else making the racket.

Sorry I don't have a picture of Owen in his baseball gear yet.  Maybe on the first game day.

At lunch, I put on a weighted vest I have on loan for Tommy.  Hoping that it would make the restaurant experience better for Tommy and us.  Guess what, it did!  After we left Josh and I talked about how shocked we were with Tommy's calm behavior.  Now we really need to invest in one of these.  Well God bless Gary and Linda (Grandpa & Gma)!  The next day they called Josh and offered to buy Tommy a weighted compression vest.  They bought Owen baseball equipment and wanted to be fair.  Yea!
