Noah scored three goals their first game. (I only saw one, but that's what he told me. I had to run to my car and get the treats, so I am trusting him on this one.) The only bad thing was that it ended up being in the 30's...man it was cold!
Noah is fun to watch. He has a hard time being aggressive. You spend all your time trying to teach them to be nice, take turns and don't take things away from other kids. Then when they get on the field they are supposed to do the opposite? When someone comes to steal the ball, a lot of times he will give them a turn. He is getting better with this, so we'll see...
The other funny thing at this age is their strategy. They still use the "group" play, where everyone in the group follows the ball wherever it goes. It cracks me up!
This last picture I just threw in because it is one of my pet peeves. It is of Noah, biting his nails inbetween plays. He has had that habit since he was just tiny. We don't have anyone in our family who bites their nails, so I don't know where it came from. He did really good for a while, but unfortunately has relapsed. I hope to get him back on the wagon soon.

Aw, he sounds like such a sweetheart. I think its so cute that he's taking turns even on the soccer field.
I love soccer season. It is our favorite at our house! He is cute - it is fun that he is sweet on the soccer field... it just means you are a good mom!
I should clarify...biting nails isn't a pet peeve of mine in others. It is just hard that I cannot get Noah to quit the habit. It's a germ-a-phobe thing.
Soccer is so fun! I can't wait until Ben starts next week. Hopefully he'll be alittle more coordinated than Emma.
