Hmm, embedding the video doesn’t work. Here it is on YouTube instead. 🙂 I was playing with my Flip video 🙂  No editing, I just uploaded them but they are a cute watch. Raechelle is HILARIOUS just sitting on top of the car garage and CharChar and G are just wandering around as well.

Multiple Kids, Multiple….

by Kristi on January 6, 2009 · 6 comments


I was just reading Tiffani’s blog post on figuring out if it is harder going from 1 to 2 kids, or going from 2 to 3 kids.  Since she is 30 weeks preggo with her third child, I wish her all the luck in the world. 🙂 hahaha Also, since I only (only?) have two […]

Redesigned Diaper Champ Stinks

by Kristi on January 5, 2009 · 1 comment


I have a lot of friends who have become pregnant over the years and since I have a lot of opinions to give (…hahaha) you usually see me recommending the Baby Trend Diaper Champ to people. The thing is, we purchased the Diaper Champ in 2005. We actually purchased two. We have one in our […]

My favorite genre of romance is historical novels which is why Philippa Gregory is a perfect author for me. Her novels are beautiful works of of fiction but with most of the historical facts correct.  Some things she will change to suit the fictional side of things and she will tell you in her author […]

Effect of the CPSIA

by Kristi on January 4, 2009 · 1 comment


I keep reading more and more about the new CPSIA (Consumer Products Safety Improvement Act) Law going into effect on February 10, 2009 and I feel so bad for all the people who currently make a living off of making or selling children’s clothes and toys. I was reading about it on BabyCheapskate this morning. […]

Hooray for 2009!

by Kristi on January 1, 2009 · 2 comments


Well, 2009 is here and when it arrived, I was fast asleep. 🙂  I did, however, get to greet it in the wee hours of the morning.  Around 130, 530, and 730 to be exact! As I mentioned last year, I am not to big on making resolutions. But I’m going to make a few […]

Remembering 2008…

by Kristi on December 31, 2008 · 2 comments


One of the best things about my site is that I get to look back in time, see what I said (and giggle), see if I followed my words, etc. etc… Well.  I was smart last year and didn’t make to many crazy resolutions. 🙂 1) I’ve been cooking! ALL YEAR! It’s pretty much the […]

Big Bear, Take Two

by Kristi on December 28, 2008 · 1 comment


And the fire is so delightful… It took almost four hours to get up to Big Bear, to the store, and then to the cabin. Which wasn’t plowed like it was supposed to be! LOL I chilled Gs toes by going thigh high in the snowdrift but that was the worst of it. Well, kind […]

Big Bear, what?

by Kristi on December 27, 2008 · 1 comment


Posted to another place, but re-posting here. Yes, totally fun day today. You can just laugh about it now, right!? Me and the kids, DH and the dogs about 10 minutes behind me.  I’m making great time, going the back way to Big Bear, cruising nicely in a train of cars. Hit traffic – stopped […]

Merry Christmas to you and yours! I hope you had a wonderful day. While we had an AWESOME day, I am so exhausted 🙂 From eating two turkey dinners, opening up some thoughtful beautiful presents, and watching the kids be so happy from hanging out with family. I had thoughts on organizing tonight but after […]

Hair

by Kristi on December 23, 2008 · 5 comments


Sam came home yesterday with a cute barret that pinned her bangs away from her face.  It was cute. My Mom did it, so of course it was cute. Hubby says, why can’t you do that?? Well, NOW I can do that.  Since someone ELSE did that.  But I’m just not a HAIR person. I […]

Christmas, Christmas, Christmas….

by Kristi on December 17, 2008


A few more presents bought today.  A last minute “hey that would be CUTE!” for a few people, a present for my cousin that I realized I needed, and a birthday present that is about 5 months old. Oops. Oh well. The thought was there, right?  And I wrapped everything I bought, too! Amazing, that. […]
