Soccer Week Two
So, It has been pretty quiet around our house lately. Nothing of interest lending its self to a blogging opportunity.
It has been raining this weekend which has been nice since we have had no water in what feels like months.
I'm happy to report that I'm in week two of soccer and I'm having a lot of fun. My first week my Great Grandma Joan came with us to watch the festivities.
My coach is named Bill and he is a very nice and patient man. We are learning soccer basics such as dribbling the ball down the field and trapping the ball. All this is accomplished by fun games like 'Red Light, Green Light'. We also play with things like cones and hoola hoops. All this is part of learning to run around and notice your own space. Unfortunately today I accidentally bonked heads with another little boy, which lead to tears.
At only week two, I'm all ready listening better and doing little kicks instead of the giant kicks from last week.
All the parents look very amused by the activities, and all of us hear lots of giggles and clapping from the cheering section.
My mommy and daddy have taken tons of pictures, but the lighting conditions don't make for very viewable pictures. Here are a few of me trapping the ball and lining up with the other little guys.

Hey, Andrea. Where are you taking Jake to soccer? I'm thinking about putting my daughter in soccer as well. Has he taken to it well as a 3 year old?
