Mid-Month Confessions: February

It's that time again! Time to share all the "not so perfect" parenting moments that have happened recently! I love this link-up and the way it helps us realize that even though our Instagram reels might seem like we have it all together, we all mostly likely don't! Here are some of the "highlights" of our month so far!

- I always bring coffee in a regular mug into the car and it is always too big for the cup holder and spill. This month, I used a clean newborn diaper to soak up the spilled coffee in my car. (At least I cleaned it!)

- Speaking of the car - it is disgusting. So many sippy cups, clothes, blankets, etc. Also, I knowingly allowed leftover pizza to sit in the trunk for a few days because it has been so cold out that I knew it wouldn't start to smell.

- I very happily got to pop pimples on both my boys this month!

- After declaring my dislike for Facebook Messenger last month, I downloaded the app literally 2 days later.

- Being the wife of a teacher, I am probably MORE giddy for snow days than even he or his students are! And its currently snowing right now!!! :)

Well, that's all I've got this time. So glad so many of you resonated with my inability to brush my toddler's teeth on a regular basis. And no, we haven't improved since last month's confessions either!

    Haha! Did you hear Sarah R. Bagley and I talking about the teeth brushing on her podcast?!? ;)
    Thanks for linking up - I'm right there with you on FB Messenger - I said I wasn't going to download it and then as soon as I got my first message it just taunted me and I had to. #pushover Enjoy your snow days!!

    I cracked up at your popping pimples confessions. And snow days that mean the hubs is home is a glorious thing! Not one that I can relate to yet, but I can imagine. ;) I seriously hope you keep these posts coming- I love reading your confessions!

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...
