I'm a soccer Mom!!



Cassidy had her first ever soccer practice last Thursday night! She is on a YMCA team with 3 boys & 6 girls. When asked what their favorite cartoon characters were (when trying to decide a team name) all the girls (except Cassidy) said that they liked "princesses"; Cassidy chose "Jake and the Neverland Pirates" :)
She is the oldest player on her team; I hope that soccer helps to build her confidence and get her active!  It was hysterical because the kids took everything that "Coach Joe" said literally.  Wish I had taken more video -- maybe I could've made some $$ on AFV! Overall, it was a great first practice -- but it ended with a double plastered Barbie band-aid and a few tears from a fall into the cold, scratchy grass.

Jake thoroughly loved going to soccer practice -- he can already dribble the ball with both feet; he's such a little sports star!  And probably too much for me to handle at games/practice :)
