Thanksgiving 2014

Well, I'm 38 weeks preggo and instead of boring you with how ready I am my body is to have this baby, I'll post our Thanksgiving recap instead! That is much more fun. But just in case you were actually wondering, this baby is welcome to make his appearance any day now for the love of my hips, shoulders, stomach and sleep!

We celebrated Thanksgiving at my mom's house with my sister, her 2 kids, and our friends Chris, Meg & Avery. Amanda and her boys, Cole & Wes, came up Tuesday night and Wednesday was Wes's 1st Birthday! Canon and I grabbed some cupcakes for the sweet boy to celebrate with that evening. And wouldn't you know, I even brought over the big camera! (though, it is still sitting on the table, so a picture of a good picture will have to do for now)


I was really excited for Canon to get to hang out with his cousins, so that was the focus of our days, other than eating of course! 


MoMo gifted the boys with matching PJ's - one set they put on that night, the other is saved for Christmas Eve




On Friday evening we went to the lighting of the Alexandria Christmas Tree in Old Town and met Santa! Well, Cole met Santa, Canon was not as excited. He did love that light saber though! 


I was very impressed by Santa and Mrs. Claus! Obviously real looking and the lighting for the outdoor shots was awesome.

Looking forward to prepping Canon some more and hoping to get another visit with Santa before the season ends! 


And a few other random shots from the weekend:

We installed the infant car seat! It's getting real y'all!! 

I love watching him play!

Posing on Thanksgiving Day because I LOVED his outfit


I hope your Thanksgiving was filled with family, friends and joy like ours!

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
