Ben's taking soccer lessons and loving it! It's a class geared for kids ages 2 to 3 and you play with your parents on the field. Today was his first class and he had a total blast (and he actually paid attention, so that was fun to see). It was hysterical to see all these little kids on the field with these tiny toddler-sized soccer balls flying everywhere. He would play for a while, then knock on the glass to wave to me, Bebe and Grandad and yell "I'm playing soccer." He seemed very proud when class was over and totally exhausted.This is a horrible pic, next time I'll go on the field, but I'm sure it's so blurry due to his sheer speed - OR the reflection on the glass - you decide.
It was a big week for Ben (and his parents) with soccer and school starting. He started a new school on Mondays with his buddies Connor and Dillon. I was a nervous wreck - more nervous than any of my first days of school. He seemed to love it and wasn't shy at all. When I dropped him off he was shoving another kid - so I was so glad to see he was making new friends - - - UGH. Hopefully this "MINE" phase will end soon, but I know we're not alone.
