Lil Sluggers

The boys started another session of Lil Sluggers at the beginning of January.  Usually we do Lil Sluggers at Crockett Park at the indoor arena.  But they are starting to transfer most of their classes to the Franklin Fieldhouse.  It's actually in the same building as the DC Dance Factory where Carter used to take hip hop.  On the other end of the building are several basketball courts and a turf area.  I know the program likes having a place that only they use but I like the other facility so much better.  There is twice as much space and parents and siblings are separated from the classes (we would sit on the bleachers that are separated by a glass wall from the field).  At the Fieldhouse there's no place for parents and siblings and we are on top of the kids in the classes.  And a lot of parents just let their little ones run all through the classes without even trying to control them.  It's frustrating and I don't think we'll be taking classes there again.  But it's still going okay and the boys are having fun.

Carter is doing the 5/6 year old (level 1) class.


This week the kids practiced sliding, which is always exciting for them!


Rylan is taking the 3 year old (level 2) class.



The boys have the same coach this session (Coach Scott - this is the first session either of them has had him).  Carter's class is Wednesday at 4 pm and Rylan's is at 2 pm on Fridays.

Rylan didn't take a nap before his class a couple of weeks ago.  When he got home, he fell asleep standing with his head on the couch.  I love how his legs are crossed too.  He slept like this for about an hour.
