wow, I have never had the reassure anyone that I am not joking. Most times it's because I have the kids with me or someone already knows that we have seven kids and one on the way. so, to answer the idea that this is a joke, no, my wife and I do have seven kids. it is not a mixed marriage with some of her's and some of mine. we had the kids together. the picture from the simpson's is too funny!
I knew that posting this situation would deliver some of the responses that have shown up. But, at the same time, I felt that someone would pop out the next "Krist????" name that would fit. thank you to everyone who has listed names.
the "Christ" part came simply from my middle name being christopher. we were going to name our first child Christopher, but Kristina decided to arrive first. then Christopher was next and the "chris" namecycle kept going. we had to be creative after Christian and we came up with Christman, Christephen, Christamas and Christavis. I thought that a second girl would give me a chance to use an easy "Krist????" name, but it is starting to get difficult to find one we both like.
the second middle name was my idea that comes from my pattern of being different and out of the ordinary. the kids love their second middle name and they often make sure to let people know their full names. if we ever need to adopt a child we will use "simulated wood" for their name. (okay, i am just kidding with the simulated wood).
thanks again for your ideas. I will check back to help answer any other questions or comments that come in.
