Clemson Weekend

Over the past 8 years my college friends have gotten together for various events, but always for a home football game! As I am writing this, I realized I've never actually posted about these weekends, so I'm going to find those pictures and do a separate post on that! 

As we started our e-mail chain about this year's game, a very wise Spangler suggested maybe combining football weekend and mountain house weekend into one, since ya know, tailgating all day with children isn't the most fun thing in the world. 

So, the 2015 mountain house football weekend was created. It was the best decision. We picked an away game and a house that was centrally located to everyone in NC. We left town after work Thursday night and arrived at 1am. It was a long, dark drive, but totally worth it not to have to be in the car again for 2 whole days! 

I thought I would take more pictures, but as it was, I was too buys catching up with friends and chasing toddlers! Here is what I did get though! 

early morning window watching

Friday morning grocery run. 

Some sweet 3 year olds playing together! They really had so much fun all weekend! 

Cale got a motorized car stuck in his mama's hair! 

Football watching. That's a lot of children. 
Others arrived Friday and Saturday and in total we had: 14 adults, 4 3-year olds, 2 18-month olds and 3 1-year olds! That's 9 kids between 5 families and it is so fun! 

Then, of course, we were so wrapped up in the game we forgot the quintessential couch picture when everyone was there, but we got this one! 

They've certainly grown since June!! 



Oh, these pictures make me laugh so much. I'm so glad we have friends that will all travel to see each other and make this one weekend a priority. What fun memories have already been made and will continue!

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.  ...
