Goooooaaal!

Coby went to his first soccer practice on Friday! There is a drop-in indoor soccer class for 18 mo-3 years that we thought we would try out since I took the day off. Coby was also lucky to have Nancy come and visit to watch him play! He seemed to like running up and down the field a Iot but still has some work to do on following directions. Overall he had a lot of fun and was very tired afterwards!

Gymboree Play

Sunday was a hot day so we wanted to find an indoor activity. Took Coby back to Gymboree Play to play and take a class. The theme was 'in and out' and they did activities going in and out of things like a tunnel, tube, slide. The class only had him and another girl in it so they pretty much had the whole place to themselves for most of the time. His favorite activity is the parachute followed closely by the tunnel to crawl through. He had fun climbing and playing and took a long nap afterwards.

Swimming!

Coby went swimming a second time on Saturday. This time it was open swim instead of a class so he could spend more time getting used to the water. He seemed to like it more this time and enjoyed chasing balls and rings that Dad would throw. He even responded to 'kick your legs' doing a little frog kick. Progress!

Tunnel time!

Here I come!

What sound does a goat make?

Coby is getting better now at answering the question - what sound does a goat make? Why? Because at Sharon Hills Park a few streets away from our house, they do ecofriendly lawn maintenance every spring by bringing in a huge herd of goats.  It takes about 10 days for the goats to eat up all the grass and they move in sections until it is complete. We walked over to the park to check out the goats as often as we could the past few days. Coby seemed a bit confused by it all but was able to say 'mehhh mehhhh' when asked what sound they make by the last day we saw them.

Red tricycle

Coby LOVES being outside. He wakes up between 530 and 6, drinks some milk, and typically one of his first words in the morning is "outside?"
We don't take him out that early. But lately after work we have been taking him out on his tricycle around that neighborhood since the days are longer and he really loves it. He keeps his feet on the pedals but can't quite pedal. He looks around and points out everything - birds, planes, agua (sprinklers in yards, water on the road, fountains in peoples yards).
Also here are some pictures of us playing at the nearby elementary school, one destination for our stroller or tricycle walks.

Mothers day

Coby made this picture to celebrate mother's day at Headsup. We had a small celebration at his school where the teachers had fruit and drinks for us and we played with the kids there for a bit.
I will post some pictures from that day after I download them.

Picasso

Coby's artwork from daycare today. They did stamping on paper with their hands.
