Caleb, Swimming and Soccer Fanatic!

Caleb has had two big firsts this month! On Monday, June 2, he jumped off the diving board for the first time!!! He loved it and jumped over and over (probably 30 times!). He walks up so proudly and leaps off with a big grin. When he comes up, he's wide-eyed and then he wipes his eyes, and swims to the latter! Such a big boy!Another big first in his life this past week was his first sports camp! The girls' high school soccer team sponsors the Little Kicker soccer camp. Caleb has really been looking forward to this, and the week of camp did not disappoint! He has worn his cleats, shin guards, soccer socks and "uniform" all week, and honestly, he wore it most of the week before, too! He loved it and would kick the ball all the way to the field before practice and all the way back afterward! He has always loved sports, but this has been his first opportunity to officially play. We had a big fan section to cheer him on at his game on Friday! Thanks to the Cooks, Alexanders, Ge, Natiley, and Aunt Michele for being the best fans a four-year-old soccer player could ever ask for! Bennett had a big time too. He really wanted to be on Caleb's team. We told him he had to wait until he was a little bigger, but Caleb came to the sidelines to give him hugs throughout the practices!

Ok... I was wondering what was up with the boy's choice of footwear in previous pictures. I almost commented on it, but didn't. Now this explains it... :)

Yes, I guess I should've explained the soccer socks under his brown leather sandals!
