Christmas

Aaron and I went back to the East Coast for 10 days over Christmas this year! It was so fun to spend time with friends and family in Virginia, as well as in South Carolina. Here are some highlights of our trip!

 Mom's Mantel, with the addition of Cole's stocking! 


 Aaron got to put the top on this year. What a lucky guy! 


 "Cupfast", cupcakes for breakfast, with my favorite Alexandria ladies! 


Amanda, Casey & Cole. 

 What a cute kid. 6 teeth! 


 Apparently those teeth are sharp! 


 He is super close to walking!


 Opening his present from the Wilsons!


 Waiting on the women to get ready for Christmas Eve.


 Christmas morning! He got a trike...


 and a music set! drum, maraca and tambourine!


 Aaron got Robert a pipe so they could have some "man time"


 Cole looooves his Daddy!


After Christmas we went to South Carolina to visit family. Unfortunately I don't have any pictures from that, but we had a fantastic time visiting with everyone. On our way back, Aaron and I got to spend quality time with Katherine & Jay in Waynesboro, VA. It was so great to see her and her new baby bump! I can't wait to meet baby girl Hawkins in April! 
Then on New Years Eve day, Aaron and I went up to Baltimore to see Camden Yards. We visited the stadium, the birth place of Babe Ruth museum and had a great lunch at Pickles Pub right across from the stadium.

We had a great time, but after 10 nights and 4 bed rotations, we are happy to be back in our own apartment and our own bed! Aaron is already back to school, but I don't start again until the 23rd! Hopefully that means I can get a head start on some reading. Wish me luck!

going public

Well...there is not really any other way to say this but... Aaron and I are having a BABY! Yep, Baby Schultz should be arriving this Labor Day. We could not be more thrilled about the news! Once we got through the 12-week ultrasound, which is what this picture is from, we were ready to spread the news! I know there are still lots of people who should have gotten phone calls, and for that I apologize that you are finding out now, but I was just ready to get it out there! And now I will answer the questions that typically follow up this kind of announcement. 1. Were you trying? Well....not exactly. From the beginning I have felt pretty strongly that we were not in control of this whole baby-making situation. I have known many women who got pregnant on birth control, or when they didn't even know they could, and those who "planned" it and then it has taken longer than hoped. I've just always been pretty sure that when the Lord determined we were ready, He'd

spill about your LOVE link-up

I'm linking up with A. Liz Adventures today for this fun little questionnaire!  {1} Describe your dating life prior to finding your husband/boyfriend/fiance. I had 2 serious relationships before meeting Aaron, one in high school (as serious as that can be, ha!) and one in college. Before meeting Aaron, I had been single for about 3 1/2 years. {2} Describe your husband/boyfriend/fiance in one word. How would he describe you in one word?   The word I always use to describe Aaron is steady. He is the calm to my crazy. Also, is faith is the most consistent and steadfast I've ever seen. He says to describe me in 1 word is too hard.  {3} You had a really silly fight. Embarrassing silly. What was it about? Our most frequent fight is over the dishes. And that seems silly to me.  {4} In three sentences (and only three!), describe where you both hope to be in 5 years. Surrounded by family and friends, probably with another child, in a house with a front porch

mid-month confessions

Y'all. I am SO excited for the return of mid-month confessions!! Elizabeth, over at Teaching Sam & Scout , used to do mid-week confessions that I linked up for a couple of times before her original blog shut down. Since starting at a new space and kind of rebranding herself, she's decided to get them going again, but once a month instead of once a week. AND she's partnered up with one of my best girls from Clemson, Heather! I'm really looking forward to this link-up each month! - First, I have to say, today was just one of those days, so this might be brief. - On Sunday, our youngest child, Ben (4 weeks) spit up straight into the mouth of our friend Geoff who was holding him. Yes, possibly more embarrassing for Geoff, but I felt terrible!   - When I wrote our family goals for 2015 on the blog, I purposefully left off one thing; brush Canon's teeth once a day. YES, I know. We're terrible and haven't quite worked it into our routines yet so
