Hi! I'm Kristi. I'm a work-at-home mom who enjoys blogging & freelancing while raising 2 young boys in grade school. I met my husband Grant, an engineer, 15 years ago at a wedding and the rest is history! I graduated from Fitchburg State University, where I earned my B.A. in English. Before kids, I worked at some interesting places - a company that manufactures space suits for NASA pilots, a Federal prison and the fad-gym for women Curves. Our son, James, is 9 and our son, Ryan, is 7. James loves to build with Legos and Ryan loves coloring and doing crafts. I like things nice and neat and they don’t. My life may be all about my boys, that’s why I like to make this blog (mostly) all about us girls! I enjoy writing in-depth product, and book reviews as well as hosting high-quality, exciting giveaways for moms and women just like me. For more information, contact me at maloney(dot)Kristi@gmail(dot)com.
