After painting first two colors (Hep Green and Reflecting Pool), I notice that the colors on my walls are turning out darker than the ones in the brochure. However, I’m still DETERMINED to pull this room together and make it FABULOUS for my girls. The girl’s room is low lit so that’s why the colors [...]

I’m not sure if I told you guys this, but added to my list of “skillz” is eyebrow plucker. I tweeze my brows cause I don’t have enough to wax. Neither does my sister Lucy. This last time when Lucy was in town visiting me, I mentioned, as I often need to: “Ummmm, ju brows [...]

Louise cashes in on her two teeth.
By Jane on August 23, 2010
Now that another 2 teeth have given way, it was time for Louise to cash in. However, she first wanted to wait for Eminem, Taylor and Auntie Lucy (who was coming the following weekend) to get here so she could show them off. Louise put each tooth in a box and after having made sure [...]

At the rate I’m going, and especially after nursing, I’m sure I’ll be needing a contraption similar to this. Which then reminds me of a song that my dear loving sister, Lucy Lu, adapted just for me. Some of you may know the song, Do your EARS Hang Low, the kiddie song. Except, where the word EARS [...]

I love how the people behind the counter at the Post Office can carry on a conversation in front a long, intensely quiet, line of people waiting patiently to mail their stuff like no one’s around. I guess if they didn’t though, they wouldn’t have much conversation other than “Will you be needing any stamps [...]

Your daily Benz: Sleeping with Mommy and Daddy.
By Jane on June 23, 2011
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 [...]

This Jane does not do milk. I’m LACTOSE INTOLERANT not because my stomach acts up when I drink milk but because I just don’t TOLERATE it in the least. I don’t like it. The thought of me drinking a glass of milk makes me just want to HURL. It took all kinds of strength in [...]

Office Depot has Toothbrushes???
By Jane on January 9, 2010
We have to stop at Office Depot because Lucy needs a converter for her camera memory cards. She also needs a toothbrush but doesn’t want to make multiple stops so she thinks she can get both at the Office Depot I tell her NO WAY does the Office Depot carry toothbrushes. We then make a [...]

Wasp problem turns into an inadvertant beheading.
By Jane on November 29, 2009
It seems like we are seeing more and more of the wasps in our house. Remember when Thelma and Louise went hunting for their nest? (Click HERE). They were unsuccessful and therefore, we still don’t know where the wasps are coming from. But, every time the girls see one, they’re frantic and ready for me [...]

Not your every day Jeep. Gun included.
By Jane on September 6, 2010
While coming out of the grocery store, I see this in the parking lot. I wonder if they get tickets for not wearing a seat belt. And what’s this? Are you sure that little tie thing is going to be sufficient? Why not just put a sign on it that says TAKE ME. -Jane. Just [...]

Not a fan of laptops but starting to change my mind.
By Jane on August 29, 2010
At Starbucks again. The weather these days is just perfect. I bring the hubby’s tiny laptop so that I can kill two birds with one stone (Not that I would ever intentionally try to kill a bird. Yes, I did peg that one bird but that was an accident.) I’m not a fan of laptops. [...]

Do your kids love going to the dentist? Mine do.
By Jane on October 28, 2010
Unlike some kids, my girls LOVE going to the dentist. This is not something they got from me. I hated going to the dentist as a kid. Every time I went, I feared that the Dentist would discover yet another cavity. Eating healthy was not a concern growing up in the 80s. Wasn’t JUNK FOOD one of [...]

The same day Louise gets home from hand modeling, Thelma and Louise declare SISTER DAY. Funny because, when Lucy and I were kids, we used to do the same thing! Sister Day would be a day where we would have gifts for each other and we MUST be nice to each other the entire day. [...]

Pets: Kids just want to care for something of their own.
By Jane on September 29, 2009
For some reason, kids just have this inherent need to have pets. They just want to take care of something and call it their own. Like most kids, my kids wanted to be the parents of their own puppy. Fanny Mae had bought an adorable little Pekingnese for herself, so when my mom brought the [...]

Skeletoes, finger toe shoes…the new Crocs?
By Jane on July 23, 2011
The girls and I were shoe shopping for some sneakers for Thelma and flipflops for Louise and came across the new, trendy Skeletoes made by Fila. If you have not seen these things, they are like finger socks for your feet except they are shoes! I first came across these when I saw them on [...]

New beds for the girls. With the frames still in boxes, the girls have fun with the bedding.
By Jane on December 28, 2010
As you may know, the girls share a room and they also share a lounging type futon bed. We love that bed as it is quite comfortable. I also am a firm believer that making kids share a room makes them closer and teaches them to share early on. Lucy and I shared a room [...]

Bold and beautiful: Thelma sports a head dress just because.
By Jane on May 7, 2010
The other day, Thelma had found a black rag that was once part of Dick’s shirt. It had just been washed. She decided she wanted to wear it. She looks just adorable!! In Muslim cultures, older girls and women are REQUIRED to wear head dresses to cover their head and hair. I think it’s awesome [...]

Old Asian Drivers. Need I say more.
By Jane on February 23, 2011
Sadly, my parents Fanny Mae and Freddie Mac fall in the same category as those old Asian drivers that people so often get frustrated at. We were going to a new park and they were following us in their car. Except, my mom is driving (She always drives because she gets motion sickness if she [...]

It seems that the FTC, the Federal Trade Commission, is targeting bloggers and celebrities in their newest revision of their “rules” for endorsements and product reviews. Apparently, celebrities such as myself, are going to have to start disclosing that they are getting paid to endorse a product or if they were sent a product for [...]
