Itty-Bitty Sports

This spring (or summer however you want to look at it since its already high 90's) we signed Ryder up for "Itty Bitty Sports" at our local YMCA. The intent of the program is to introduce sports to toddlers. Its two week sessions of golf, basketball, t-ball, and soccer. In reality, its very close to "herding squirrls" in my book!! Take 30 toddlers and two young teachers, then try to play an organized sport. You get the picture. Ryder actually really enjoyed himself. I think he liked soccer best. Kasey took him almost every time because Ryder behaves better for Kasey at these things. When I'm there he is just ultra distracted! I hope that is not foretelling our future because I would love to be a "soccer mom" (or whatever he plays) and support him at all his future games. Then again, maybe he won't even grow up to play any sports! Who knows. Here are some pictures and video from soccer. The video gives a great view of the "herding squirrls" concept. Also, please note that my looks like the most unathletic kid in the bunch. I'm really sorry Kasey... looks like our son may have inherited all my skills!
