July & August 2015

Just a quick little round-up of July and August in pictures! 


One of the perks of living where I grew up - I got to take pictures of Canon on the porch of the house I lived in until high school, let him play at the same playground across the street and go to the same 4th of July carnival at my old elementary school!

Recently, Canon has been playing "church" and will sing from the hymnal and offer communion to us!

I got to get away for an awesome weekend at Camp Carysbrook!



This kid - is just getting SO big! Months 4 - 8 have really flown by!


A little playdate in Waynesboro with my college girls!



Haircuts for the whole family!

Ben went to California to see the Schultz Family and had a great time getting spoiled and loved on by Grandma!


We got to hang out with Elizabeth, from Teaching Sam and Scout, and her sweet boy. Elizabeth is from VA and went to Clemson, but we didn't connect until the last few years because of blogging! It was so fun getting to meet them in real life and chat in person.


That same weekend, Cousin Cole came over for his and Canon's first sleepover! Then to the Zoo with MoMo, Amanda, Wes and my aunt Fran!





Again, this one. Wanting to pull up all the time and could possibly start cruising soon!


Church! 

I don't even know. But on a somewhat related note - we've successfully conquered Potty Training!

And that has been our summer! Aaron has work week for school next week, the back to school picnic is next Saturday, and then Canon turns 3 on September 4th! All that to say - FALL IS COMING!

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 ...

Baby Boy #3!

We are expecting baby boy #3 and since I documented a good amount of my pregnancies with the older two, I want to at least start off giving this one the same treatment! I am due May 25th, though he'll probably come around the 18th by c-section. We found out in my 18 week appointment that we were having a boy and I can honestly say I've been super excited since. With two older brothers already ruining, I mean running, the house, I'm happy to bring another boy into our crazy. This pregnancy will always be remembered by having to have my gall bladder removed at week 11. As soon as I hit 6 weeks I started having intense gall bladder pain. I've dealt with gall stones since Canon was born, but they were always singular events that would pass in about 4 hours, and this pain was consistent and all day/night long. The doctors I saw encouraged me to manage it with diet and hope to get to 16 weeks before discussing surgery. I tried everything, which pretty much meant eating noth...

what's going on

We're starting to try some rice cereal. I've been pretty sporadic about it, but after his 6 month appointment (which is NEXT WEEK!) I'll start putting "solids" into our every day routine.      Canon has found his feet! Now every diaper change is just the most fun, trying to get those toes into his mouth!   Canon is officially rolling over, both sides! This particular picture happened when I had gone into my bedroom for a hot second and came out to find him on his tummy! He can do it regularly now, though he doesn't love being on his tummy and rolls back over quickly.  Other things going on: Canon is officially sleeping unswaddled!! I guess around 2 weeks ago, we started again with the one arm out and went from there. He now sleeps in a fleece sleep sack with arms. I'm not going to lie, the process wasn't quite as daunting as I had originally thought, but I think that is because we waited until he was really ready.  ...
