I love nursing. Aside from it being the best milk for your child (unless you’re downing shots of tequila daily or shooting up heroine), for someone who is lazy like me, it’s perfect except for two three things…they’re too huge, having to wear a bra 24/7 and fatty armpits. Yes, fat armpits! WATERMELONS One being [...]

The object of Benz’s fountain…Jane gets sprayed!
They say having a boy is different and I’m starting to see that. I’m totally sweet on my little guy. However, when they’re so little like this, babies are pretty much the same in the sense that all they do is eat, sleep and poop. The only obvious difference right now is the boys have [...]
Your daily Benz: Grandma knits Benz a blankie.
My mom has been knitting a blanket for Benz. It’s super nice so I wanted to take some pictures of him with it while he’s still tiny, even though she wasn’t quite done with it. Little man has no eyebrows. This concerns Dick but I’m like, he’s Persian! I don’t think hair is one of [...]
Swim Team Mock Meet.
With having had a new baby, I decided we would take it easy over the summer and so only one sport…SWIMMING. And although last year was our first year on the swim team, we missed quite a few practices due to the burn that Thelma got but we also took time off to go to [...]
Daddy and Benz at the park.
While the girls are playing on the playground, Dick and I go for a walk with Benz. Only, it seems like it’s just the two of them… Dick took a few of me but they were just hideous. Not solely the fault of the photographer. I wish Dick had some photo skillz so that I [...]
Taking the Benz for a ride, I mean, stroll.
No, I’m not talking about our car, I’m talking about our son. We decided to go for a walk, while strolling our new Benz around. I had forgotten how much one must pack when you have a baby, even if it’s just for a simple walk around the neighborhood. That there black bag on the [...]
Your daily Benz: Sleeping with Mommy and Daddy.
Because I’m the Mommy AND the photographer, I am doubly doomed not to get any pictures of me with the baby or me with my family at all for that matter…even though I am the one person who currently spends the most time with the baby. However, I’m torn because even though I want to [...]
Your daily Benz: Benz and Piggy.
Benz’s head often falls to the side, making him look so cockeyed. So, I looked around to see what I could put there to straighten him up a bit. Piggy fit quite nicely. Benz seemed to think so too…look how he’s holding on to it’s feet. -Jane, Mommy to Sweet Benz.
My parents build a chicken coop: Authentically grain fed and free range eggs!!
My mom and I have been talking about raising chickens for their eggs for about, oh, maybe 5 years now. But, for me, with kids and our businesses, I simply don’t have the time. Rather, I should say…I don’t WANT to allocate extra time spent on yet another thing that I have to care for…it’s [...]
Your Daily Benz: Scrunchy stomach sleeper.
I just love seeing little babies scrunch themselves up in a little bundle when they sleep. Yes, I am aware of SIDS but I only let him nap every now and then on his tummy. I don’t let him sleep on his tummy at night. It’s so cute and he sleeps so soundly when he’s [...]
