Fast forward 16 months...... here is our David Beckham Jr. ha ha! Who would have thought that at 19 months old, Taj would be our soccer star playing toddler soccer?! I don't mean to brag, but he really knows how to kick, and he gets the game! Everywhere we go, whether its the playground, field, or grassy area, if Taj has his soccer ball with him and is running around kicking it, we have people stop and stare and exclaim how good he is and how little he is to be doing so good with the ball! Taj's first day at soccer practice (through the City of Newport Beach Sports): He learned how to kick a goal!
learning some new skills....
playing the game....
Do we have a future soccer star on our hands? Maybe! Definitely a soccer player..... and probably an awesome athlete! Daddy has taught him football (he yells "touchdown" every time a game is on), basketball (he can shoot a basket with his toddler version ball and hoop), baseball (he has a good arm and aim), bowling (he will set up the pins and then roll the plastic ball at them..... he also likes to use our water bottles and oil/vinegar bottles from the pantry as "pins"), and then there is the obvious soccer! Like you can't tell this kid is obsessed with balls........ come to our house and witness 20 balls of different sizes and colors littering our hallways and living room!
Little brother Jax was so proud of his big brother..... he also wanted to join in the game, but he was just too pooped so he snoozed in the bassinet stroller!
After Taj's first soccer practice and game, we took him out for a smoothie!Here are some other things he's also really good at these days.... the super student he is! At 19 months, he can count to 10 (omitting the number 5 for some reason ;))
and help mommy finish sentences in his books (early stage of reading?), and he knows his shapes!
