back at it


It's been...some time. But, I'm feeling inspired.

We are right in the middle of our second summer in Fort Wayne. We've been back to Alexandria, the beach and Chicago. The boys have done Games camp, Farm camp and one VBS. We still have another VBS, 2 weddings and another trip to Virginia on our schedule! Aaron completed Hebrew 1 and will finish Hebrew 2 at the end of July. And then, school starts again in September!

We moved, of course. When I found our first rental, I knew it was in a good neighborhood and was a great size, and that it was far away from everything. We were driving 25-35 minutes to get up to Seminary, see friends and get to church. Once I made the move to stay home with the boys, it just made sense to be closer to everything that we do around town. We became aware of a rental that is just 4 blocks from our church, and about 15 minutes to everything we do. It's super cute and easier to manage because it is smaller. We're for sure still in the process of settling in and figuring out how exactly to arrange all the furniture and establish new spots and routines, but I already love it so much!

It is strange that we're starting to do things for the second time now, such as the summer socials at the Seminary and just today, the Three Rivers Parade. The best part of doing them again - having friends to join us!

So, that's that. I am hopeful that I'll find my groove again here.

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
