The Gumster started his 3rd season playing soccer, this time in a "real" league, with practices and games between teams. Lemme tell you, it's hysterical to see these 4yr olds all huddling to get to kick the ball, but it makes for a great experience for the little man. At some point he'll get that it's ok to share the ball with the members of his same team, in the meantime, we're just enjoying him chase after and try to throw the ball, no matter if it's towards the opposing team goal.
Rodri's team, the "Pirates" aaaaaaaargggghhhh, is an all boys in the U5 division (sounds so fancy to say they're the tiny ones). He was thrilled when he got his league uniform and he got to pick his own number, 4, because he's 4yrs old and his birthday is on the 4th... such smart boy! --ahem--
I also signed up to the something called the "team mom".. oh yeah.. I'm head first deep into this soccer-mommy thingy...
Here's to the carpooling, years of lugging muddy soccer cleats and sweaty boys from game to game... and I just can't wait for it!!!
I'm sharing some pictures of his first official match.. Apparently it was a tie, 3-3... not too bad.!
I seriously love these 2 pictures, Rodri (#4) running like flying with arms to his back, and the other one with a true Soccer expression trying to get that ball..priceless
