About Me

Kristi: I am a mother of three wonderful little boys, Andrew ~ 8 years old and Carson ~ 6 years old & Alex ~ 2 years old. Married to my husband Chad of 14 years. Summer of 2007, I became a full time stay at home mom. I enjoy my days with the boys but miss the adult interaction nursing provided. My desire for this blog is to attempt to keep family and friends up to date on the daily events of the boys. I hope it will also help me reflect on the time I have with the boys and remind me of what an awesome job God has blessed me with!

Andrew - "Should we use that handitizer Mom?" aka hand sanitizer (4/2/10)

The boys were having one of their little spats and Andrew said "Mom! Carson hit me, so I hit him back." I told him that that isn't what we are supposed to do.

The other day Andrew & I played quite a few new games together. When Chad got home, Andrew told him "We played flap jack and old navy!" aka slap jack and old maid. (1/14/09)

Andrew is having some issues with not listening very well. Today he said "Am I going to get trapped in the whale?" No, Jonah. (8/15/08)
While driving in the car, Andrew was nonstop talking as he had been all day long. I said "Andrew, I could use a little quiet time." A-"Why?" K-"just because" A little while later, it was fairly quiet and I was singing quietly to the radio when I hear Andrew say "Mom, I could use a little quiet time." (8/14/08)
Andrew was singing a song he learned in Sunday School, "The B-I-B-L-E, yes that's the book for me...." when he got to the end he shouted "BYE-BYE!" instead of "Bible!" (7/6/08)
While driving home from church, Andrew said "Can we go to a restaurant so Mommy doesn't have to cook?" That's my boy! Thanks for looking out for me. (6/29/08)
At our friends dairy farm, Andrew walked up to the fence where the calves were and said "Hi. I'm Andrew." like he does with lots of children. (6/27/08)
As we were driving home, Andrew spotted our large geese population in our neighborhood. He said "Goose!" Chad asked "What are the geese doing" Andrew replied "Umh, maybe pooping or maybe eating." Isn't that the truth!! (6/08)
As we were driving in the car today, Andrew said "Don't squish him Mom." Don't squish what? "Don't squish that motorcycle Mom!" There was a motorcycle in front of us. (6/5/08)
"This is the best soup EVER!" (5/27/08)

"What kind of Kristi is your name?" (5/20/08)
I asked Andrew this morning, "When did you come in Mommy & Daddy's room last night? I don't remember you getting in bed with us." Andrew looked at the invisible watch on his wrist & said "Hmm, 40 minutes". (5/19/08)
I asked Chad a question about his parents, Andrew very sadly said "I wish I had parents." (5/17/08)
"It's growing straight up, like a bean stop!" Andrew (5/16/08)
After returning from a walk, we were playing outside and Andrew said "Do we have pastas?" me- "pastas?" "Yeah, like those people had at their house?" me-"oh, Hostas?" "Yeah! Hostas!" (5/16/08)
While I was putting together some recycling in the garage, Andrew came to the door and said "What is all the racken?" (5/15/08)

Two small arms to hold you tight,
Two small feet to run,
Two small eyes full of love for you,
One small son.
