we didn't know what we were getting into

A few weeks ago, Aaron and I headed down to the new Ikea that just opened in Centennial. It had been open for about 9 or 10 days by that point. Aaron had never been to an Ikea before and I tried to let him know that it wasn't just a furniture store. 3 hours later, I think he got it! Also, because this one had just opened, there were swarms of people! I'm not kidding, I felt like I was going to a concert!

Here are a few pics of things we (or I) liked!


lots of event staff were needed - clearly they were working hard

loved, loved, loved this dining table and chairs!



I have a thing for white couches

Aaron loved this floating bookshelf

another white couch

I'm contemplating this as the color scheme for the living room

really liked these lights under the shelves as well as the bar to hang things along the backsplash


grey floral curtains - i will be buying these soon!


the bed I picked out

the bed Aaron picked out


we definitely need something in the hallway to put mail, keys, etc

genius.


and of course, cheap food! 2 hot dogs, chips, a drink and ice cream for like $3.50



That was our trip to Ikea! We'll definitely be heading back soon to pick up a few things. Good things it's only 7 miles away :)

As a disclaimer, I feel that I need to add I was planning this post before younghouselove did theirs.

Any awesome finds that y'all would like to share?

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
