Pregnancy

This post may be a tad late, but for posterity sake – I’M PREGNANT! I have just begun my third trimester (week 28) and I decided a few pictures of the belly progression should be on Shelblog. First photo: 7 weeks pregnant

And then no photos until today at 28 weeks. Oops.

Maybe next pregnancy I will be better at taking more frequent pictures of the belly. But probably not. 

Henry Joseph Schluterman is due April 20th!!

Mexico (again!)

Mexico. Was. Awesome.

Here are some of my favorite memories: We ate ALOT of cheese, bread (smothered in Mexico’s amazing herb butter) and drank alot of Americanos. We saw some of the most gorgeous sunsets I have ever seen in a city. We walked nearly 16 miles in one day. We put Kerrin’s Spanish (and my Spanglish) to use because NO ONE spoke English. We wandered into random festivals and open markets (I’m pretty sure Mexicans just party everyday). We visited every cathedral and museum we walked by. We watched maggots eat a book. We had tea at a place blasting head-banging music (this was not pleasant). We hiked to the top of a pyramid and drank 7-UP to ease my altitude sickness. We decided we were moving to Mexico. We decided against this idea.

Enjoy the photos. I’m excited to be a Sheldon.

P.S.

I posted ALOT more photos of Mexico City and Puebla on my personal blog.

Mexico!

I recently got married to a pretty lil thang named Elaine. I love her so. To celebrate, we took a honeymoon warm-up trip (the real one is in January) to a little place I like to call Mexico. We visited Mexico City and Puebla, both beautiful towns with lots of great architecture, surrounding mountains, color, and vibrancy. We strongly, strongly recommend Puebla, as it is one of our favorite cities ever. Really beautiful.

Check out some photos of the places I just mentioned in the paragraph above:

West Virginia Wedding Weekend (and more!)

Let’s get this Shelblog thing going again, shall we? Here are a few photos from Kerrin and Elaine’s wedding weekend. Image

We were greeted by a little bit of snow when we arrived on the farm.
