Thanks to all. Ariel and Carissa are doing well so far, infection free and growing. After losing weight initially (normal), they're both over 3 pounds today. Nicole, my wife, is home and recovering nicely. The girls have many tubes and did the anti-jaundice light for a few days, but the NICU staff is fantastic. Still, we can't wait to get them home.

Thanks for the update. Sounds like they're in excellent care. Prayers continue.

Congrats on the birth of your twins and I will be praying that they are home soon with you and your wife.

On a side note, CoachTraub is one of the nicest, most genuine guys you will meet. He loves the game, he knows the game and he will help boys that want to play past baseball find the "way" to continue the game. If you get a chance to attend his seminar, as a parent, you will come out of it with as much or more as your son does. He is one of the "good" guys in this game.

Coach Traub is the reason that my high school team was ranked as high as 4th in the state in 4A at one point, if you aspire to be a ballplayer at the high school level or beyond, I would seriously consider sending them to a Coach Traub-ran-camp. It was one of the most helpful experiences that I have been apart of. The walk through the mental approach of the game is something that I had never heard before, "grip it and rip it baby" used to be my thoughts stepping into the box. NO. Coach Traub has great stories/advice for every position you can get yourself into out on the field. THANK YOU COACH TRAUB, YOU TRULY MADE A DIFFERENCE IN MY PERFORMANCE THIS PAST YEAR! And good luck with the young-ens.

Wow, Dawg10... Thanks. I'm so glad I could help, but I was clearly not the reason for your success, or your team's. I provide ideas, and information isn't power, information combined with action is power. Obviously, you made adjustments and took actions that enhanced your performance, and you deserve all the credit for that.

My wife loves this thread of course. She's doing great, and said this last post sounded fake...too good to be true. I have no clue who Dawg10 is (I hope you'll PM me, because I'm certainly curious). I had the pleasure of working closely with two elite 4A teams this year. All credit for their success goes to their coaches for all their work (and wanting a small assist from me), and of course to the players.

By the way, my next showcase camp is coming up: July 16 at Northwood University, with Head Coaches from Northwood and Eastfield, and recruiting coordinators from UTD and Central Arkansas. I am also opening up my softball mental skills training camp to baseball players. CoachTraub.com

Thanks, everyone. Have a wonderful day - I will because I get to go back to the hospital and see those angels. Twice. They're healthy and growing!
