Soccer Practice

Joseph likes playing soccer this fall. He is enjoying learning fundamentals, and it's really fun to be on an all-boy team. I am learning how to juggle evening practice, and games with the babies. They have decided they really like to go to the park and run after the practice ball while Joseph gets to "kick ball" as Johnny says on the field. The train comes by, and they can wave and see it at least 2x during practice. The weather is beautiful, and everyone is full of energy, except perhaps Mom by the end :). Here are some pictures of the toddlers the other evening. Johnny will kick the ball, and run after it pretending to be like the big boys, all focused, and Leesie will run over and take it from him. She's probably getting him back for two years of binkie snatching, she seems quite pleased that she can do this.  He lets her, and then he takes it back, and there's lots of laughter. They run and climb and run some more the whole time. It's pretty adorable to watch, until they run in opposite directions. Whew!
