Braden~our little soccer player

Here are some pictures and video of Braden's soccer practice. We signed Braden up for soccer when he was three, but it didn't go over too well; he only would go on the field if accompanied by Rich or myself, so we thought we should wait until he got a little older to try again. Case in point, here is a picture of our little 3 year old Braden during one of his games, notice his partner on the field, a very pregnant mama.


Luckily, now that Braden is 5, and asking on his own to play soccer, things are much different (except I am pregnant again). Rich and I get to watch from the sidelines during practice (unless we are running after Emma), and Braden is always so proud of himself after practice. This afternoon I told him we would go in the backyard and practice kicking. I hope his games will go as well as his practices are going!
