Soccer...

Today was Alexander's first soccer class!

He was very excited & ready to play. He did a great job listening to Coach Chip when he gave directions of sitting, getting the balls, & singing the super soccer stars song!

There were several moments were Alexander would yell out the answer or make a funny comment. It had some parents laughing which makes me think that my son will be voted class-clown or most enthused!

One thing we need to work on with him & hopefully the class will help is continuing instructions. A couple times Coach Chip asked them to put the balls into the goal or how to flip up the cones...Alexander would go over and kick the ball in, or work on flipping up a cone and once he was done he would start to run around rather than trying it again. We have to work on the repetitive concepts.

Overall a great time & the kids had a blast...below are a few videos

Here the kids had to get the "crabs" and put them back in their homes...Alexander mostly ran around and then decided to slide instead:

I have to confess - its not his Dad he's taking after; its PopPop. Guess who was voted "Class Clown" in H.S.?
