Football Mania

I mentioned in the last post that Grandma gave each of the kids a gift card to Toys 'r Us to pick out something for their birthday gifts this year. Ray got to "help" Will with his pick, but Will knew exactly what he wanted once he saw it. He wanted his very own football helmet and jersey. He didn't care what team the helmet belonged to, and Daddy did intervene and tell him that a Cowboy outfit was the only acceptable one. Will is taking a little football class once a week for 3 - 5 year olds called Pigskin Pals. They play on an indoor soccer field and practice passing the football, running with the football, and learning football terms - like Tony Romo. Will thinks this is great fun, but he was a little jealous last week when one of the boys showed up in his very own helmet. Of course, they didn't let him actually play with it, but all the kids had fun admiring it. It is so much fun to watch Will doing these things, and I love getting to experience "boy" things with him. We think he looks pretty cute as a football player.
