First, a big congrats to my cousin Amy and her husband Birc on their new baby, Walker, born on Monday! Savannah is going to be the best big sis ever!!
Second, as I mentioned on Monday, soccer game 2 was MUCH better than soccer game 1. Maxwell’s wasn’t totally 100% on board with playing the game, but he was about 75% and that’s great with me! We got new jerseys – go Team Blue! – and everything was organized much better than last time. Robert got the kids out there and even got them doing some drills…
Love these balls in the air!
He even got them going with a little Red Light, Green Light action!
Red Light…
Green Light…
Maxwell kept holding his hands behind his back like this while practicing…so funny. Guess he was serious about not using his hands!
Spencey was just chillin’ and enjoyed the day like this…
Once the game started, Maxwell wasn’t quite so sure he wanted to play. But, with a little convincing I got him out there…
Then, with a little more convincing I got him out there again…
and then (with a small assist from his hands!)…
he got that ball down the field…
and scored a GOAL! Go Maxwell go!
Overall it was a great day. Good coaching, the shady side of the field and a win for Team Blue (not that anyone’s keeping score!) 🙂
And, PS, bags of grapes are no better than orange slices. Kids will still go for the goldfish instead!
See you tomorrow!

The kids look so little and so cute out on the field! Lots of fun!
Aunt Jen says
Awe! They are so cute. So glad game two was a success! Hooray!
Amy Morledge says
Thanks for the shout-out! Maxwell is making Birc excited for a few years down the road with Walker-soccer is his thing! Maxwell looks to be shaping up to a soccer star himself, and very adorably too!
Dad says
Maxwell did great, must have been the coaching!
GJ says
Of course it was the coaching plus Maxwell had on the proper equipment!
Lynds says
