Cooper's First Soccer Game!

Cooper has his first soccer game today and he did amazing! We were really nervous having him start at the age of 3 (all of his teammates are 4 or 5) but he did great! He got to play goalie for a quarter, defense for a quarter and forward for a quarter! He was part of the first group that sat out and he kept saying that he wanted to go play in the game! He didn't score but he had a couple of breakaways... Maybe he will get a goal next week :-). Cooper got the whistle blown on his 3 times... Twice for trying to pick up the ball with his hands and once for tackling a kid... The kid he tackled tripped up Cooper seconds before so Cooper thought it was a fun game the kid was trying to play with him (Coop was giggling like a little school girl while tackling the kid). Overall, it was a successful day of soccer. Mommy played on the same field soon after Coop's game so we got to have some fun bonding experiences throughout the day! Enjoy the action pictures!
