Soccer and Gym

Last week the boys started a new gymnastics class. They are both loving it. Especially the marshmallow pit! (Classic Michael squinty eyes picture, he never smiles like that, except when he says cheese.)
And then today the boys had their first soccer games of the season.
Michael was so excited to finally be able to play in a game of his own. He's been loving getting new shin guards and cleats. And getting his uniform was the best. He did so good. He stayed in the game and ran right after the ball. And, even though I'm biased, I think he was the cutest little soccer player out there!
Carson played when he was three and he really didn't love it. He just wasn't quite ready for it. So we didn't have him play last year. Now he's super excited for this season. He loves his team name "The Killer Bees". He did so good! He chased right after the ball and even made two goals! He even blocked some of the other teams goals. He watched the game so intently when he was on the sidelines and kept score so he could make sure his team was winning. We were so happy to see him finally loving a sport.

Gabe hated it when we first put him in soccer so we haven't tried it again but maybe I will now. I agree your kids are definitely the cutest ones even though I can't really see the others.

So fun for them both. I think I forgot that you were putting Michael in, or I didn't know. I bet he just loves it. He probably finally feels like a 'big kid'!! We'll have to come watch a game.

Trinity didn't really like soccer last year, so I didn't make a point to sign up this year. I probably should have thought about putting Dallas in though, oh well.

Are we ready for the soccer season? Only 9 more weeks left. :)

Fun times. I look forward to those days with our kiddos, but love the stage we are in now. Broke and just out of school!

Your boys are so cute. I didn't sign Brady up for soccer, we just have to much going on right now. I feel bad because I know he would love it. He played last year and had so much fun. We will have to do it again next year. Have fun.
