Lincoln's Playing Soccer!

Lincoln is playing soccer for the first time this spring! I thought it would be a great outlet for all his energy! Here are some pictures from his first practice. It was a little hard to get him to stay out there partly because he kept wanting to come get a drink and partly because his coach wasn't very good at keeping the kids' attention and getting them to do stuff. Kris isn't coaching this time. (I wish he was!)

Kicking the ball to the coach.

Here he is all ready for his first game. They had pictures before it. He was so cute in his uniform!

His team! There are a couple of 5 year olds on it. He is pretty young to play and just barely made the cutoff to get to play. So...

that might account for some of this that went on.

We kind of had a rough time--at first. I think he either had wanted a drink in the middle of things or had fallen down and gotten upset. Also, right off the bat, he scored a goal for the other team. Ha! They don't keep score, but it was funny! It was a little confusing which goal was theirs!

He did pretty good all in all though! He is a fast little booger! He did great when he had the ball, but when he was running down the field without the ball, he was more interested in looking back while running, watching his shadow! It was HILARIOUS and the cutest thing!!! I don't think I got a picture of it though!

He did make one goal! He was so proud of himself! He looked over at us and had the cutest expression on his face.

Sweet little soccer player!

Having a snack and taking a break with Hannah. She cheered him on!

Daddy congratulating Lincoln after his first soccer game! He has only been to one game so far. We were out of town for the last one. Looking forward to seeing how he does this weekend!
