Never to be Spoken - PICTURES!

I have been needing to take new pictures of the boys, our house pics are so out of date. Truly its sad how fast time goes. We were going to head over to Kiddie Kandids the week the went out of business... glad I didn't do that.
So tonight I am walking around picking up the house, thinking about my mental list of things I haven't done yet and I say "I'll take pictures of the boys tonight while Darren is at YM's" (Yes I am admitting that I talk out loud to myself, not as bad as my sister :) but yes, I totally do it! Knowing full well that "Pictures" is a word that no parent should ever mutter out loud... I've done it. And yes, about 3 minutes later I hear Weston hit the floor and start to cry. I come around the hall corner to see him scooped up in Daddy's arm... sobbing. I tell Darren - I sad it! I knew I should not have said it - but I said it. Darren then ask's what... Pictures, I said!
Weston is officially taller than the bottom of the kitchen counter that he used to so innocently run under, this time it did not work and left the mark to prove it. Sorry my little Westie :( I hate to see my kids hurt. But I pulled out the silver spoon and no bruise was left :)


This is such a sad face :(

What has been going on...

The last month or so has been life in all manners of the definition. I think of that country song 'sounds like life to me' whenever I want to complain or think this is hard... nope it's Life and it's not always going to be easy. And no we haven't had anything major, just constantly on the go. so here is what the Steck's have been up to...

**The boys started baseball, so we have practice 2 days a week for Bryson and 1 day for Preston, which is manageable. Except Monday is a 5:00 and 5:30 so our FHE has basically been moved to Tuesday for now. I got their schedules for games and put it on our home calendar to view it all at once, we have baseball 4-5 days a week for 5 weeks starting April 5th... oh nelly how am I going to keep up with it all? But the boys are enjoying playing and having fun
**Sick, sick and sick... Bryson started us out and then Weston and then Preston and then Weston took a hard turn bad with antibiotics, then Daddy who is still recovering. It's been a long 4 weeks of someone not feeling good. I somehow have scrapped by healthy, or maybe I was too focused on everyone else to notice I was sick!
**Weston turned 2 - which I know I already blogged about - but it brings me up to the next subject. Why is it that when your child turns two that somehow invites people, even strangers to tell you "it's time to start trying"?? It doesn't so much bother me with close friends, but I have sure heard that question a lot, some one actually asked me, if fact drilled me about how I must be pregnant! Wow... time for a diet. So no, just for the records, Weston is 2 but I am not pregnant!
**The boys started back 'on track' in school which I and they were excited for. Its great that by the third week they are both so ready and excited to get back into school and the routine again.

Aside from that we have been staying in with the sickness and plugging along with baseball. Hopefully we will have some new pics coming, we are looking forward to a fun spring break, and a wonderful Easter Conference Weekend!
