I have been wanting to see Avatar long before it came out but haven’t been able to go see it until now. Of course, by now, it’s raked in a record $2.5 Billion worldwide and James Cameron will continue to rake in bazillions of dollars until long after he’s gone. I really didn’t know what [...]

Mother’s Day Start: Breakfast at McD’s and a Flat Tire.
By Jane on May 12, 2011
Mother’s Day started off with breakfast with my girls. Mommy was craving some McDonald’s…which would come as a surprise to those who know me but pregnancy just brings about the incredible need for JUNK! Dick was still in bed so I took the girls and we headed to McD’s for breakfast. (In Dick’s defense, he [...]

I’m not one to take care of my shades. Even though there’s a nice case that come with them, my designer sunglasses end up scratched to hell and get thrown into the abyss that is my purse. Dick, who meticulously takes care of his shades, always asks me how I can see through some of [...]

Getting our energy out at the Gymnastics place.
By Jane on September 23, 2010
We have access to a great Gymnastics place that opens up their gym to the public and allows kids to run around and play at their HUGE facility for only $5 an hour per child! Believe me, an hour is plenty. We’re not interested in adding yet another activity to our schedules but I love [...]

So, I’m still trying to make use of my current closet and have been lazy to go out and look for more maternity clothes. On this day, I decided to wear some leggings and my summer sleeveless & black-less black dress, which looks like this… These pictures are from a very crazy (but fun…except not [...]

Impatience at the Post Office. What do you expect?
By Jane on December 18, 2010
I had to go to the post office to mail off some photos for a client. It was Friday, around 2:30pm and as you can imagine, it was JAM PACKED. The line has extended far beyond the other side of the door to actually gets you within visibility of the agents that work behind the [...]

My girls inherited their Dad’s dominant “curly-hair” gene. Well, Thelma more than Louise. Thelma’s hair has this lovely curl at the ends of her hair that makes her hair look effortlessly stylish. Super cute. I love it! The curls are even more prominent in the summer. Asians, because most of us have naturally straight hair [...]

Using our fire pit to make Chelo Kabob the old school way…
By Jane on March 21, 2011
This time of the year is perfect for a fire pit at night so we’ve been enjoying a warm fire in the crisp evenings. Last night, we were craving Chelo Koobideh (ground beef) Kabob, one of the staples of Persian food. The MEN decided they would use the fire pit to grill our kabobs the [...]

Louise gets sick on her Birthday. We make it up by going to Cracker Barrel.
By Jane on March 18, 2010
SUCKS TO BE SICK ON YOUR BIRTHDAY Louise has been counting down to her birthday since the beginning of the year. It’s crazy how much kids anticipate these things. Sadley, on the VERY DAY of her birthday, she had a horrible cough, high fever, complained of stomach pains and was breathing very strangely. Short pants [...]
No, it’s not one of Michael Jackson’s kids. It’s Thelma in a mask.
By Jane on November 4, 2009
This is a mask Lucy Lu gave me to wear for my Goth birthday party. Thelma is going to be using it for her costume for her skating competition coming up. She liked it so much she decided she was going to wear it out while we’re running errands.

Still haven’t made it to the Orchid Show. Mommy, we’re hungry!
By Jane on March 8, 2011
So we barely make it past the Kiosk Vendor when the girls are like, “Mommy, we’re hungry!” (Eyeball Rolling and Big Sigh!) It also doesn’t help that the damn Chick-fil-A Cow is right there greeting everyone and giving hugs to the kids. So, I decide if I’m to get any peace while looking at the [...]

My pathed walk-way leading up to my front door has been unusable since the end of summer. Remember my Fall Chrystanthamums that were so beautiful and took over the sidewalk? Well, they are no longer beautiful but instead are dry, brown and have since passed away…expired. That’s a nice way of putting it huh? Ex-pi–urd! [...]

If you have not met Monk, you’re about to now. Dick gave Monk to Thelma a couple of years ago for Christmas. Bought from Justice Girls, she came hugging one of those comfy matching monkey flannel blankets. Monk is sassy and is one of the most traveled Monkey stuffed animals I know because Thelma just [...]

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 [...]

Lucy and I look for the perfect short and fat Christmas tree.
By Jane on December 3, 2011
We usually do Christmas at my mom’s house so the Christmas tree goes over there. Every year, it’s Lucy and I who go shopping for the tree. Don’t let the picture fool you into thinking Lucy is taller than me…Lucy is sporting 3″ heeled boots. In actuality, she’s one inch SHORTER than me, even though [...]

Thelma cleans the bathroom. No, this is not another Cinderella Story.
By Jane on January 18, 2010
My lovely Thelma thought she would help her Mommy out and clean the bathroom. No, I did not force her…She totally did this out of her own will and the goodness of her sweet little heart. Actually, I wasn’t supposed to see any of this. Thelma wanted to surprise me. Thelma is wearing a vintage dress from [...]

By Jane on October 14, 2009
You remember the chrysanthemums that were taking over my sidewalk? Well, I cut some of them and used them to decorate inside. Fresh flowers are the best!

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. [...]
