Soccer

So our son seemed to really want to have his own thing like his sister had dance.  There really isn't much for a 3 year old little guy to do though.  However our city did have soccer for 3 year old and we thought we would give it a try.  Not really the sports fanatic here but figured we would give it a try.  Well the first two games one of which his grandparents came to see were spent trying to push him to go play, daddy running with him on the field or daddy chasing him trying to keep him from rolling down the hill at the end of the field on the the other side of one of the goals.  After that game we were successful getting him on the field trying to kick the ball by bribing him with a bite of frosty regularly through the game if he tried to kick the ball.  Basically we decided at this point soccer is not his thing.  We will see if he want to play later but not sure we are going to sign him up till he seems to show more interest.  Poor guy would try so hard and would get so frustrated every time someone took the ball away from him when he was trying to kick it.  Which would result in tears.  Then the last game he kept yelling as he ran onto the field "stop those kids".  It was almost a battle cry.  He wanted to be the one to own that ball and those kids kept taking it from him.  He was so heart broken when those kids would let him keep the ball.  So the 6 week season mercifully came to an end and all of us including my son breathed a sigh of relief.  Here are a couple pictures and videos.

No you can't play on the hill till the game is over.

A couple cute videos.  The first one is a rare moment of him with the ball.  The second one Shows them tackling the ball.  Maybe when he is old enough we should try football......
