Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas from the Ward Family!

AJ had a great Christmas. DS and PS2 games from Santa as well as a new fishing pool.

And a new DS from Mommy and Daddy.

Omar got what every little boy dreams of a box full of hats. He tried to wear all of them at once. Then Grandma and Grandpa bought him a Spongebob that is as big as him. We now have to take it with us everywhere we go. He makes us put shorts on him and buckle him into the car seat of the van.

His eyes got all wide at the idea of 24 packs of playdoh.

And of course we can't forget the all important Mickey Mouse Dance Dance Revolution!

All Eli asked for for Christmas was a tool box and Operation Spongebob. So imagine his suprise when he opened his gifts and that is what he got!

Santa is a very smart man and knew that you can't take one brother fishing with out taking the other so Eli got one to as well as some new DS games.

I want to thank Nana for my beautiful gift. I love her very much Thank You!


For those of you that don't know when I was a little girl my Grandma would make me beautiful dolls. One of my favorites was an angel, just like this one. Well along the way the angel got ruined by a spiteful person. Now I have her back!

I is for Immanuel

Today was Eli's Christmas pageant. He was so sweet up there singing his little heart out.


Omar, Mommy, Daddy and Grandma all came to cheer him on.

One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish

I decided the other day that it would be a great idea to finally bring home our fish tank from my mom's house. Only problem is Omar thought that since the tank was here I would automatically fill it with fish. With the holiday season right around the corner we figured we would wait on filling the tank. Problem with that Omar was not taking no for an answer.


So, to keep him from crying I created fish for him. He loves his fish. He is so silly he was so excited to show daddy his new fish when he came home from work.

We are the Champions!

On the last day of T-ball the coaches awarded Eli with his very first trophy!

On AJ's last game for the season they also awarded him with a trophy. Coach Aldric also received one.

GO WARD BOYS!

Fredrick

Our new house came with a built in pet. The boys named him Fredrick. We figured that we would scare him away since the boys are always in the backyard, but he is adamant on this being his home. He is not afraid of anyone I was only two feet away from him when I took the picture. Not many believed he was back there cause he does stay in his hole a good amount of time. We only have one small problem with him Eli finds his eyes to be a bit creepy! Either way he is now part of our family Welcome Home Freddie!

Crazy For Krabby Patties!

For Halloween the boys decided to go with our favorite characters1

For Omar he is the one and only Spongebob Square Pants. Square butt included!

Eli is the silly Patrick Starfish. And yes those are pink pantyhose and yes he will probably hate me for it when he gets older.

AJ is Mr. Krabs. Also wearing pantyhose and well he already hates that I made him wear them.

Thank You Nicole for letting us use the girls leggings and shirts!

6 + 6 = 14?

Today both AJ and Eli had a game. AJ won his game 14 to 7. He went 4-5, a double, 3 singles, 4 RBI's, 4 runs scored and a great defensive play.

Eli got to slide home twice and came home very very dirty!

Super Star Student Awards!

Today was AJ's Super Star Student Awards. His teacher picked him for the very first month of this school year.

His buddy Sal was also picked.

Daddy surprised us by showing up for the awards. After the ceremony Nicole, Me and Omar ate lunch with AJ and Sal to continue with our fun celebration of their success.

Jail Birds

Today at AJ and Sal's Super Star Awards the boys were hamming it up. These are their jail faces!

Take Me Out To The Ball Game!

Last night it was the Aldrics who had to put up a good showing for the Ward Family. AJ decked out in his #6 and Daddy in his #14 played the first baseball game for the fall season.

AJ played second base.

After a tough win AJ got to celebrate with a homemade brownie from the coaches wife, while his brothers look on with envy! AJ went 3 for 3 and scored 3 runs. Go Baby Blue!

First Day of T-Ball

It was time for T-ball for Eli last night. After a full day of school the boys suited up in preparation of watching Mr. E step up to bat!

Don't let the smiles fool you. When he comes up to bat he is nothing but business.

Mr. E swings for the fences with all he is worth. He than run like the wind for the 1st base.

Of course no game is complete without a little dirt on the pants. He slides in to each base with no concern for where the ball actually is!

Mr. E feels he is such a pro that he doesn't actually need to touch the base to score.

While his Mom, Dad, Grandma and both brothers watch from the stands he hams it up for the camera while in the dugout.

Labor Day Parties!

For Labor Day we went over to the Ancewicz's house for a "Welcome Home Paige" party. Omar was a bit overwhelmed by the 14 kids and and all the adults.

We bought Paige and Kelli gifts for the occasion. Paige got a Disney Princess lunch set and Kelli got Hello Kitty socks and backpack clip.

All the kids had a great time in the pool while the adults watched from the sidelines.
On the following day we made another impromptu party at Nicole's. Omar was more in his environment with the 8 kids and the 4 adults. We swam in the pool for a very long time. The adults got into a dodge ball pool fight while the kids laughed and complained about how the adults had all the balls. We enjoyed the Yummy leftovers of Ed's from the day before. We had a great time thanks for inviting us!

First Day of School

Eli's first day of school was not just hard on him. Mommy cried just as much as he did. He started it a week before regular public school.

AJ on the other hand is a whole different story. He started first grade like it was nothing. He according to him loves being in school.

Mommy and Omar celebrated the first day of school with a few mommy friends at Bob Evans. Yummy!
