Guest Post on Teaching Sam & Scout



I am so grateful for the opportunity to participate in E's series, 31 Days of Making It Work As a Working Mom. Go on over there to check out how I, and many other women, balance working outside the home and having kids.

For those who might be clicking over from there, Welcome! Here is a little about me:

My husband and I met (and were married in less than a year!) in New Orleans, January 2011

In August 2011 we moved to Denver and that is where we had our first son, Canon, September 2012





In August 2013 we moved to Alexandria, VA - my hometown! Aaron is a middle school teacher at a small classical Christian school and I work part-time for both a church and a campus ministry at George Mason University

We are expecting boy #2 in December! You can read about our Gender Reveal here!

Even though I said I'd "never move back home", I'm having a blast discovering this city as a wife and mom and I am so glad to be close to friends and family! I blog mostly about my child, sometimes recipes, and our adventures around the east coast!

I titled this little blog "we'll be in touch" because when Aaron and I were at the beginning of dating, he never quite committed to the next date (he was a little unsure) so would just say to me "well, we'll be in touch". I never knew exactly what that meant, but lucky for me it worked out!

So glad you stopped by! Leave a comment, follow me on bloglovin' (I'll follow you back!) and I'd love to be in touch with you too!

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
