B+ Goals for January

Happy New Year! 'Tis the season of fresh starts, goals and resolutions! I read a lot of blogs and I've very much enjoyed reading everyone's goals and/or resolutions over the last week or so. Honestly, getting to hear other women's hearts about motherhood, working, spiritual life, etc has helped me brainstorm and process the kind of things I'd like to see happen in 2016. That and a good old fashioned date night in which the hubby and I discussed our own personal goals and dreams. We didn't go out on NYE, but we did go out on New Year's Day evening and I think I see a tradition forming. It was so nice.

This year I'd like to focus on just two areas:

Physical Health

Spiritual Health

I know that by making small steps to improving these two areas, my entire life will improved and I am excited! What I love about Elizabeth and Sarah's B+ Goals is to keep them attainable, but also allow grace and that no matter what, done is better than perfect.

January Physical Health Goals: I got a fitbit HR for Christmas which has really kicked off these goals, I love that I can easily see how many calories/steps/miles, etc so easily!

* hit my 10,000 steps 4 days of the week (I work a desk job, so this means I'll have to do some extra walking either before or after work)

* track my food

January Spiritual Health Goals:

* read Simply Tuesday by Emily P Freeman

* start my day with Jesus Calling and First 5 App

That's it! Totally do-able and I'm really looking forward to coming back in February and celebrating that I've met them!

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

Arise Campus Ministry 9.23.14

Over the past few years, I've had the opportunity to be part of some awesome ministries. From time to time, I've been given the chance to speak and I wanted a place to keep those files. Here is where I'll post my talks, Bible Studies, etc that I'm either doing or creating. Arise Campus Ministry at George Mason University 9.23.2014 This week I want to tell y’all a little about my story, because the word “belonging” is extremely significant in it. I came to Christ at the end of middle school – which for me were terrible years. Think about all the stereotypes of mean girls and being made fun of and left out, and that is my story. It all really fell apart for me at the beginning of my 9 th grade year when every girl I had left middle school fighting to maintain a friendship with completely ignored me. I had a peripheral friendship with a girl who was a church goer and accepted her invitation to become part of their youth group. I had been on and off, but nev

February Goals

Happy February! I'm joining Elizabeth and Sarah to talk about B+ Goals for the month! I am loving the idea of setting up some attainable goals for each month, but also giving myself grace for meeting or not meeting them. This year I am focusing on my Physical and Spiritual Health. First, a quick review of January's Goals. January Physical Health Goals : * hit my 10,000 steps 4 days of the week (I work a desk job, so this means I'll have to do some extra walking either before or after work) * track my food January Spiritual Health Goals : * read Simply Tuesday by Emily P Freeman * start my day with Jesus Calling and First 5 App As my husband would say, I won more days than I lost in January! My fitbit broke 3 weeks into January, so the last week and some I wasn't able to track, but I did get to the gym to run a few times without it. I also tracked more food than I didn't and the days we were at work I did really well staying w
