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 it only happens about 75% of the time. On the same note, my college friends give me a hard time because we don't do a bath every night either.

- I told myself after I had the baby I'd quit sugar....yep, that was a month ago and I'm currently eating Nestle Flipz as I type.

- Since Ben has come we've started putting Canon to bed 30 minutes earlier just to give ourselves a few more minutes of quiet, not because he needs the extra sleep.

- I refuse to put the Facebook Messenger app on my phone. It just seems unreasonable to me that I need another FB app (also, all that stuff about the privacy, etc when it first came out made me not want to do it). However, I have probably 5 very legitimate messages that I need to respond to, but I never get on my computer to actually do it. Sorry friends!!

So, there ya go! My "less than perfect" life behind the screen. Feel free to link-up and share your real life confessions!

  1. So fun to have that little connection with both Heather and me! It really is a small world. I love your confessions - and, girl, you get a free pass for AT LEAST six weeks to eat/do whatever you want after you have a baby. I'm totally planning to milk that time for all its worth - so you eat those Flipz and enjoy! Also, we aren't good at teeth brushing either. Terrible, but true.

  2. Okay not gonna lie, I am super pumped about reading your confessions every month because you are so funny. I love reading your posts! And I totally agree with E- I ate WAY more after Ryan was born than I ever did when I was pregnant, so the though of cutting anything out, especially sugar, sounds like a terrible idea. But then again I'm not sure how I would get my coffee down in the morning without it considering the embarrassing amount that goes in to each cup. Pick your battles my friend. Or find a more encouraging friend- one. ;)

    We put our son to bed early on Sundays. The best decision ever! ;)

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
