soccer week 2!

It's official.  Soccer has been much more successful than swimming.

Plus, he runs for over 40 minutes straight which tires him out before bed.  So, we all love soccer!

 Carter still has a hard time keeping the ball on the ground though.  He usually likes to pick it up, run to the goal and then set it down in the perfect spot to line up his shot and then kick.  So, Matt told him he had to keep his hands in his pocket during practice.  It worked...for a while!

 They got to play this super fun game called "chicken and the egg" (but I honestly have no clue why it's called that). It should be called chase your partner and grab the flag, but I guess "chicken and egg" sounds more fun to 3 year olds. Anyways, Carter had to chase Matt around the field trying to grab the flag out of Matt's shorts all while kicking the ball.  He loved it!

 Then they played "duck, duck, pond" (again, another weird name). They had to kick the ball to the yellow discs and then pick up the disc and take it to the "pond" (just another spot on the field).  Carter thought it was best to just put it on his head and run around screaming "quack."

Can't wait for week 3!
