I've Been Throwing Up...Give Me a Break

Alright...I apologize for my lack of blogging for the past 2 months. Since Blogger likes to put pictures in the wrong order, all of the pictures go from most recent to not so recent.

If you don't know already, I'm pregnant! I'm 12 weeks along and because of weird stuff the dr. doesn't really know when I'm due so we'll just say somewhere around April 15th. I've been terribly sick and tired all the time so that explains no new posts.
Carter has grown up so much! He just had his 18 month appt. and he weighs 25.5 pounds (40%), is 35.5 inches tall (75%), and is head is 49 cm (78%). The dr. only had good things to say about him and his growth and development which is always a good thing to hear. He also let the dr. pick him up which is extremely rare but so great. He only cried when the nurse gave him his flu shot which was super sad this time because he could actually recognize where the pain was coming from and tell me ouch. I felt really bad.
Towards the beginning of September we spent a weekend with my family and attended Peach Days. We went to the 2 hour long parade, which Carter loved and sat in his stroller the entire time! It was great!
One day Mark was holding Carter just outside the bathroom door (probably while I was puking) and Carter threw this T and it landed just like this in the fan. It was incredible.
Back in August we flew out to Pennsylvania to visit Marks dad and step mom. We had such a great time seeing family. For the first time in YEARS all of Marks siblings, their spouses and children were there together. It was great. Grammy (the clown by profession) entertained Carter and Lydia by making balloon stuff...She's so talented and the kids were quite intrigued.
Here is a picture of all the grandkids together.
Carter loved spending time with his cousins Brisa and Katja
We went out for breakfast one day at THE biggest buffet place I have ever seen! It was humongous and pretty dang good too!
All the cousins enjoyed spending time outside playing with sidewalk chalk and dancing with their shadows on the car.
The adults got the chance to go crabbing while we were out there...it's a family tradition for the Schultzs' and because all the kids were there, they decided it would be so much fun to go together again.

Carter wasn't so sure about all the crabs we caught...
Pretty cool huh?!
This is Carter and Mark waiting for out connecting flight...it had been a long night, but they both did so well :)
Before our trip out east, me and Carter went to an awesome water park with my aunt and her kids. Carter loved being in the water and I loved all the fun water slides.
Clear back at the beginning of August, we said goodbye to our home. Mark's company closed the branch and transfered him.
Our nice friend Cory so so great and helped us move...I don't know what we would have done without him because I know I couldn't have lifted all that heavy stuff!

Turns out when you've been married for 2 1/2 years and have a child, you acquire lots of stuff and I assume it only gets worse...


Carter enjoyed the packing part...he mostly just took things out of the garbage and boxes to play with. (At least it kept him entertained :) )
No Juliet is not trying to eat Carter...she's giving him a hug. We tried really hard to get a good picture of them before we moved but this was the best we could do.
We also let them play together a lot since we knew it would be a while before they saw each other again.
Clear clear back in July, Nana and Paw Paw came out for graduation and stayed for a few weeks. It was so fun having them out here getting to know Carter better and letting Carter get to know them in person instead of just faces on the computer.

While they were here we went and fed the ducks...they were kind of lame ducks because they didn't eat our bread....
At least one person enjoyed it!
