Finally a Soccer Mom

When we bought our van back in 2008 we joked a lot about it being my "Soccer Mom Speedster".  And now, 4 years later I am proud to say it's finally been realized.  My dream of being a soccer mom has finally come true.  Connor works everyday to overcome his shy tendencies and is having a great time doing kartwheels and somersaults, rolling in the grass, running around like crazy, oh, and playing soccer.  We are loving being there to cheer him on and giving him a chance to use up a little more of all that energy he packs!

His best cheerleader is his younger brother of course.  Tyler spent the first practice sitting in a chair on the sidelines cheering, "Go Connor go!  Go Connor go!"  He has since divided  his time between cheering, jumping on Dad, and doing the chicken dance.

But he certainly wanted his fair share of time in front of the camera.  Apparently the squished pinecone rivaled Connor's soccer ball as far as props go.
