So it began today – The start of Ean’s baseball career. His very first t-ball practice was this evening. He made friends pretty quickly with his teammates as their ran around the bases.
One promising thing is that Ean will not be the only first year playing. The bad thing is that after the first practice, the team isn’t looking so hot. Good thing we have a few more practices to go.
We do have copies of the schedules if you want. Just let April or I know.
Today was free comic book day and the family met up with my friend, Ray and his son at Books, Comics & Things in north Fort Wayne. There were a couple of members of the 501st that had some of their helmets on display as well as some of the weapons.
We all walked away with a handful of comics and were witness to a small costume contest.
All in all a fun day.

Mike and Chris bought ducklings for all of the grandkids and they finally got big enough to release at Mike’s dad pond.
So we took pictures of the special events and Ean even got a fish for the efforts.

While we were visiting Doug, Ella got a chance to play with some Barbies. Somehow she tried to get this naked Barbie to drive around without actually getting in the car.
I thought it was pretty funny.
It has been about a year since the last theme update, so I thought that it was about time for a change.
I’m also playing with the new Facebook Open Graph tools that were announced the other day.
I am still ironing out some of the bugs and trying to get the setting correct, but please leave any comments that you may have to help me improve the site for you.
Yesterday, Ean was invited to Isabel’s birthday party. Isabel is in Ean’s preschool class.
Just a short history – Isabel was the first girl that Ean asked to marry him. She told him no and Ean has since moved on. Now they are just friends.
Ean was pretty excited to go to the party and when he got there, he was the only boy there so he was in heaven. Even though Ean and Isabel claim that Kline was invited as well, he was unable to make it.
A great game of Duck-Duck-Goose.

Another holiday has creeped by us – the kids get plenty of candy and the grown ups start eating Peter Rabbit and the kids cry because they want eat the chocolate bunny’s head off. Ah, the candy cannibalism.
The kids are really starting to enjoy the hunt for eggs now. Ella undestands what she is doing and Ean has a hard time not taking her eggs. I just wish that it would be warmer around here around Easter so we could have a larger full scale easter egg hunt outside.
Enjoy the pictures. The kids all had fun.

With Ean being in preschool in the North Wells school district, we got our first taste of Spring Break this year.
Although, it was cold, we decided to head up to Chicago for a visit to Ikea and Legoland Discovery Center. Ean had a pretty good time, however Ella wasn’t really interested in being couped up some building as you can tell by the tears in her eyes in some of the pictures.
Once we got to open play area, Ella really started to enjoy herself. Ean says that his favorite parts were the 4D movies and the Dragon ride (which was similar to a carnival haunted house with the fright).
Here are some of the pictures of our trip in Legoland Discovery Center:

Ean got a chance to go the Wells County Library during L week at pre-school. The kids got read some stories and watched a small movie. They were all impressed with the star ceiling as the lights went down.
The kids also got a tour of the library and saw all the cool things that Ean could do “if” we lived in the Wells County. We are about a half mile from the county line.
Too bad, the library was a pretty good one.

Becky and Christy came to visit the other day to let Carly and Ella have a play date. Both girls loved playing once they warmed up to each other.
All of the girls had a good time visiting and chatting. It had been a long time for all of them getting together. We are hoping to make a visit up to Carly’s house once the weather starts getting nice.
