Family name
Dad called last night with a little information on my name. He said that my middle name Lamont was my paternal great, great grandmother's maiden name. I guess when I had asked my mother, maybe she didn't know exactly who it was so I got the answer "it's a family name". I assumed it was her family, so I looked there. No wonder I didn't find anything!

New to this...
I am not sure what I am doing, so who knows how this will turn out. I guess it doesn't really matter since I will likely be the only person reading this anyway. I am not sure what has prompted me to start a blog, but here I am.
I am Nikki Menefee Hyatt. Born Nicole LaMont Menefee. My mother swears that LaMont is a family name. I'd like to know who's family because I couldn't find anyone named LaMont in the bit of research I did. My maiden name is Menefee, although I am not a Menefee by blood. My dad was adopted when he was around 2 years old by Bob Menefee. My dad's real dad was Anthony Galanti. That whole situation is interesting, but I'll get into it another time.
I am married to Jonathan Hyatt. We have been married for 11 and a half years now and have 4 awesome kids together. Before I met Jonathan, I had my son Cory, so I am very lucky to have 5 awesome kids. I was young when I had Cory - 16 years old. Now Cory is 16 years old. Wow that's weird. That's the first time I thought of that. Cory is the age that I was when I had him.
So I have Cory who is 16, then there's Alexander who is 10, Isabella who is 8, Abigail is 4 and the newest member of the family is Elijah who is just 3 months old. Oh I am 33 now - just thought I'd throw that out there. I am not like my mom who to this day refuses to tell anyone how old she is. I mean now we know because we know what year she was born, but I can't tell you how many years she told us she was 29. I don't really get why getting older bothers some people.
So that's a little intro. Like I said I am not sure what I am doing or why I have started this, so I don't know what I will be blogging about......but I am curious to find out.

This is me. The picture is a couple years old, but I still look like that.
I think I have different glasses now though.
