Crist Family March 2011

Family photo shoots are always oh so much fun. Especially with a 2 1/2 and 1 yr old! Good thing we got a few good ones to share with ya'll! Our friend Jessica took them for us, I think she did a great job. As a family we are enjoying life and doing great! Enjoying our sweet little experiences with Aiden and Lindsey! Excited for Spring to be here and to be outside at all times. :)







Happy 1st Birthday Lindsey Dawn!!! :)

Our cutie Lindsey Dawn! At Her one year appointment she weighed 17.8 lbs and 26 in long. So tiny she is in the 5th percentile, same size as a 6mo old.
She is such a fun, sweet little girl. Always all smiles and talkative!


Lindsey started crawling and got her first two teeth at 11 mo and walking at 12 1/2 mo.
She is our late bloomer but mommy was definately ok with that! :)
We love you Lindsey just the way you are! :)

Update in the Life Thereof!!

Lets hope this will be a come back to the blogging world not just an appearance. We got rid of our internet for awhile but now we are back in progress, so I am in charge of our blog updates from now on! Soon we will have pictures to bring you up to the present time in how the kiddos look and such, but our picture upload isnt working right now. Yeah, figures. Now onto the updates...
Aiden is now 2 1/2 yrs old and is going on 12! Seriously, he is in charge in every way, at least he thinks he is! Watch out when you are with him cause he will talk your ear off! He is a typical boy in every way. He loves to fix things, cars, airplanes,all sports (especially basketball and soccer like his daddy and uncle Richard), he is going through a new stage called...Be agressive...B E agressive!!! It is his lifes motto these days! He is an awesome big brother, it has turned from the love hate relationship with Lindsey to more of the love, which is good for us all! lol But all in all he brings so much life to our little world...we wouldnt have him any other way.
Lindsey is now 10 months old as of yesterday! All I can say is "what?". Where did that time go? She is completely different from Aiden, so I feel like I am being a first time mom all over again. She is very chill for the most part. Every time you look at her she has a grin from cheek to cheek that you can't help but smile back at, and it warms your heart oh so much! She has hair, so I have been enjoying doing it and getting her to look so girly! She is stubborn, refuses to crawl, she gets on her tummy and makes us think she is going to but then rolls over onto her back...the little stinker! She loves to hold on to my hand and walk her around everywhere, but the moment you let go...she falls down. She doesnt have the confidence in herself yet. She loves music! She can say hi, mama, dada, and copies any sound she hears, its quite funny! If you ask anyone who is around her for longer than 2 min they will tell you she is a complete mamas girl! I luff it but it's hard to get anything done with her around! We love her and are glad she brings her smiley light into our world!
Rog is awesome! He is applying to the MBA program at UVU here in a few weeks! Lets hope he makes it! I have no doubts! So he plans on being able to start the Masters program this upcoming fall which will take his Fri nights and Sat mornings for 2 whole years. Not sure we are ready for that but definately ready for the next chapter financially in our lives! He is also on a city basketball league with a few friends that he enjoys every thursday night! Rog is doing well at his job. We are so greatful that he has it and it can support our growing family without me having to work. He's willing works hard for us, no questions asked! Thanks babe!
Me, I am being a Mom 24/7! I love it but it sure is an adjustment to the system from the free single life once lived! I have found some good friends in the ward that have saved me from total despair! Recently I was in need of some extra help for the post partum blues that I just couldnt shake...so all is well now, I feel like Nicole again! We just started a Biggest Loser challenge with some family and friends so lets hope we are the Biggest Losers so we can look good and get the big money jackpot!!! Still visit with my mom and sisters every wednesday so that our little kiddos get to see grandma and play with eachother! So if you are ever bored on a wed and need something to do...come on down for a crazy filled visit!!!
Well, I guess this has been a long enough update post! I hope you somewhat enjoyed!
P.s. I promise pictures will soon be coming!

The tassel's worth the hassle!



Although it has been four months since I technically graduated in December with my Bachelor's degree, the official graduation took place on April 30! It's pretty crazy to reflect on the seven years I've spent since I graduated high school. A life-changing mission in Indiana, marrying the love of my life, and two special spirits coming into the world later, here I am. During the ceremony, one of the speakers mentioned the stress he battled as a single guy working 20 hours a week while attending school. I guess that's why I appreciate this degree a little extra, as I've started a family and worked full-time, what a pansy! I guess it's time to start a new chapter, life after school (well, until I start my Masters).
