What we've learned...
Since K and I really started talking about kids, I think we've both noticed how other people parent. Not that we think they're doing it wrong, but more we seem to take what we want to do when we're parents from watching other people. We've had some great tubversations about how we want to raise our kid, and the goofy stuff we see other people do. I think the biggest thing initally is teaching sign language and not saying "No". I don't want to have my child's first word be "no", and I don't want that to be the word I constantly hear back. I think we both don't want our lives to change, and become stay at home parents. What I mean by that, is that some people stop doing other activities because they've had a child. I don't want to be like that. I want to take the little monster anywhere I would normally go, especially the outdoor activities. A hiking backpack goes a long way! I guess I'll never know for sure until the day comes, but I'm definitely getting ideas for what I want to do.
About Me
My name is Kristen.
I'm a half Japanese (HAPA!) wife and SAHM.
I've got a husband who's my best friend, and we have two awesome kids. Cameron who's nine, and Colin who turned six in January. They are the coolest little people we know.
We enjoy living in Northern Colorado, by way of Northern California and the South Carolina low country.
