Base-a-ball

Since being in MI, Gerrit has a new found love: baseball (although he calls it base-a-ball which I think he gets from the word basketball??). He has enjoyed playing catch all spring and summer but I think it was watching his big cousin Max play catch that really got him into 'using', and I use that word loosely, a glove.
He has finally figured out which hand the glove needs to be in so he could actually throw the ball correctly (I think he'll be a righty).
He found this glove in the toy box which is way too big for him - he can hardly lift it up to 'catch' a ball (again, using catch loosely).
I think he'll have a base-a-ball glove on his Christmas list this year! (He'd like one like his cousin Mia, just not hot pink!)
