Today was Julia's first day of soccer. She was so excited she woke up at 6am, ready to go. We all packed up and left for the field around 10:30. Julia waited patiently for me to find her coach, for her t-shirt to be handed out and to be introduced to her teammates. She was a little shy at first, but was so excited that she could still see me and daddy on the sidelines. She waved to us, almost non-stop. She was so cute stretching her little legs and arms out before the game began. At first she was put on defense, and told not to bunch up with the other kids. Well, she did what she was told alright and didn't move...not even a little bit! All of the parents on the sidelines started to cheer Julia on with us and before long, she was the talk of the sidelines. Everyone was amused by her waving, signing "I love you" and making "woggle goggles" with her fingers against her face. Too bad her woggle goggles didn't see the other kid coming straight for her because she got knocked down and ended up withh a pretty good size egg on her head. What would a day at the fields be with out a trip for an ice pack? A blue slush from her coach sure did make her feel better though!
Here are some pics of the day...
