Oscar having some fun with one of the girls toys.
Isn’t Oscar such a cutie!?!?!?
His Mommy decides to drop him off at my house so she can have some “mommy time” and go run her errands.
Oscar is so pa-te-tique and misses his Mommy. He just waits by the door.
At one point he did get up to go sit by the warm fireplace. He loves this!
But then he was right back by the door. AWWWW.

No TV = Creativity = Louise: Taxi Driver
By Jane on August 31, 2010
I’m not sure if you remember but we don’t have any TV channels, not even the basics. We have TVs and we’ll rent movies or watch whatever we have, but I cut the TV a while ago. The girls were watching it all day. Dick would get sucked in as well and I almost never [...]

Convertibles: Love them or not?
By Jane on September 21, 2010
Since it was summer, we had been looking for a convertible for the girls to enjoy. We found one and the kids (including the big one that is my husband) LOVE it! They love it so much they don’t want to sell it. It’s like a roller coaster ride for them. I’m not sure what [...]

By Jane on May 19, 2011
Introducing our new SON!!! I can’t tell you how over the moon we are that he has finally arrived. And because our family can’t do anything the “normal” way, it’s quite a story (to come). But first, I thought you would like to see him. At 6lbs 4 oz, 19 inches long and coming about [...]

By Jane on January 3, 2011

This Jane hates to iron but using my CORDLESS iron makes it better.
By Jane on March 5, 2010
I know there are people out there who find ironing to be extremely relaxing and meditational. Although I can understand this train of thought, I’m still not a fan. I don’t iron. Plain and simple. My family walks around in wrinkled clothes all the time. It’s just not one of my priorities. SHEETS BEYOND WRINKLED [...]

What kind of motorcycle is this?
By Jane on September 16, 2010
I passed this motorcycle on the road the other day and it definitely caught my eye. I’m not sure what kind this 3-wheeler is but it’s dang futuristic. Most bikes don’t have that back rest. Having that makes being a passenger seem not so bad. Looks like some kind of transformer. Do you convert into [...]

Coming Clean…Vacuuming sucks. Literally and figuratively.
By Jane on October 7, 2009
Ok guys. I have to come clean…fo realz. I haven’t vacuumed in like two, MAYBE three, weeks. I have swept but not vacuumed. Typically, I like to vacuum weekly cause the house collects dust like crazy but this hardly happens…it’s more likely to occur when I have guests. I just avoid vacuuming like the plague. [...]

Modern PAJAMA Family Photo Shoot.
By Jane on January 26, 2011
I’m finally at my friend’s house after running out of gas and being rescued, and ready to do the photo shoot for her family. When I do family shoots, I like to create a “mini-event” that fits the personality of the family where I’m just there to document all the fun, snapping away. I’m not [...]

By Jane on March 14, 2011
So, I’ve had my LG phone for about 2 years now and I HATE it! The touch screen sucks and I fat finger and call random people all the time. Dick has been bugging me to get a new phone…imagine that! A husband who has to beg his wife to buy something new! Well, I [...]

By Jane on January 21, 2010
Remember I said I was going to try to use more of my clothes that are collecting dust? I’m trying to use something different daily that I haven’t worn in a long time. This takes alot more time getting ready as I have to be creative putting an outfit together, but it’s loads of fun [...]

So we’re back in Metropolis and where else are we going to go but my regular Starbucks. Every morning Julia goes for a walk and comes back so we can go have coffee. It’s still early morning (early for me) so it’s nice and cool…so we decided to walk. The girls haven’t ridden their bikes [...]

We’re on our way to a friend’s house and the girls are a little hungry. “I hope they have pizza there. I’m starving! (Thelma) “Or maybe they have guacamole…” (Louise) “…or sushi!” (Louise) “Um, I don’t think they’ll have guacamole or sushi. Most kids don’t like that kind of stuff.” (Me) “But we do!” (The [...]

Hangnails: Amazing how such a tiny thing can cause SO MUCH PAIN.
By Jane on March 12, 2010
Hangnails are the absolute WORST. They are little pieces of torn skin around your cuticles and it’s usually because your skin is dry. Mine is dried to hell from painting and washing my hands constantly. Plus, it’s winter and my bony hands just get dry. One time, I held my own hand and I was [...]

There are some benefits to having had that dreadful SWINE FLU. It’s the all-new Swine Flu Diet! Great results! Surprised that I’ve lost about 5 pounds in the last week, I’ve hit an all time low of 113! This is pretty insane for me since I haven’t been this small since I was like 12. Now, [...]
