A few years ago Spencer and I went to the local baseball field to watch the Corpus Christi "Hooks" play at Whataburger Field. (Can I mention here how much fun I have saying Whataburger ? It is a local burger place and SOOO Texas to me!)
I digress, back to the game. At said game one of the favorite players had the nickname of "Noochie." Everytime he would do something well or get up to the plate, the crowd would yell "Nooooooch" in this very low, long sound. Spence and I just thought it was hilarious and for weeks after all we would need to say was "Noooooch" and soon we were both giggling.
Since that time, whenever Spencer plays baseball I call him Noochie and often am found in the stands saying "Nooooch." It always brings a smile to that darling face.
Practice has been going for about 5 weeks now. Three times a week, two hours (sometimes 2 1/2). As with all sports, when Texans do it, they do it for real. Here are some shot from recent practices.



Look at those skinny little legs! He's getting so tall!
