Mallory has been looking forward to turning 6 since it meant she could finally be a batgirl for a Michigan softball game. She ended up being batgirl for three games in one weekend a few weeks ago (when it was freezing and snowing) and had SO MUCH FUN. She tells me all the time “ALLLLLL the softball girls know me…” and now that she’s actually hung out with them in the dugout and the lockerroom, I think she has some new BFFs.
As luck would have it, she got to be batgirl for the pink game (for breast cancer awareness) last weekend and got to wear a pink shirt and since it was warm enough, she got to wear khaki shorts like the coaches (even though Biggie didn’t wear khakis that day). Mallory now reports what each girls’ nickname is and corrects me if I try to call them anything but.
In the third picture down, you can see Mallory about to hand a bat Sierra Romero. Carson calls her “the best home runner”.
She fits right in
