One of our favorite parts of pregnancy is announcing it, especially to close family and friends. What made this one extra unique is that absolutely no one was expecting it. We had been pretty open about wanting more kids, but we had been very adamant that we were waiting a little bit and giving ourselves […]

the final touches to sell our first home
We’re closing on our house this Friday (3.29.19) and it has been gas pedal all the way down for the Shaver Crew since Saturday the 16th. Packing and moving out took a chunk, but what has really consumed our time are some repairs that needed to happen for the buyer to get their FHA loan. […]
move out weekend
Thank you all for your encouragement regarding our recent news. We are confident God has a plan and we are so blessed to have so many people praying for us as we decide what our next steps are. Although our new home fell through, we still wanted to sell our current house. Aaron’s parents reassured […]
being shaver kids || february 2019
February may have fewer days than the other months but it was packed with a lot for the Shaver Crew. We’re still in the process of moving so our schedule has been filled with lots of doing. This hasn’t stopped the girls one bit though. They are all over, messy, and developing in all kinds […]
being shaver kids || january 2019
January. Man, what a crazy full month. Between 21 Days of Prayer, starting the moving process, some travel for the kids + the day-by-day, it has been nonstop. The girls have been thriving lately, which I love. Rylie has done a phenomenal job speaking in full sentences and Emmaline is crawling and pulling up on […]

book advent 2018
When I originally wrote about 12 Books of Christmas, it was the beginning of a new tradition for our family. I pulled all the Christmas books we already owned & my mom purchased a few Usborne Books & More I had my eye on so we would have 12. Guys, I cannot accurately describe how […]
being shaver kids || November 2018
Rylie turned 2, and then was sick for 2 weeks and now I feel like I have a grown up toddler. She is saying more and more words (we’re working on stringing the words together instead of her just saying one word and implying we know the rest of her sentence), learning like crazy and […]
being shaver kids || 23 months old & 6 months old
I can’t believe this was the last month of Rylie being a 1 year old. It flew by! Our almost 2 year old is all kinds of fun. She loves playing, laughing, and making Emmaline happy. She is so sweet and loves giving kisses to family members and big hugs to friends! Emmaline has really […]
