Being the super-duper dad that he is, Dick went ice skating with Thelma yesterday. Thelma is LOVING ice skating and wants to go to every public session. Reminds me of my competitive roller skating days. Yes, there is such a thing as competitive roller skating. When I can find the pics, I will post. Any-hoo, [...]

I see one of my ads at a rest area, of all places.
By Jane on August 14, 2010
On our four-hour drive home from Gotham City, it was almost midnight and time for a potty break. We stop at the next rest area. It’s one we’ve been to many times. We do our thang and then Thelma wants to look around. She goes ahead of me into the next room that has all [...]

Halloween shopping at Spirit Halloween.
By Jane on October 21, 2010
Lucy was in town over the weekend so we took the girls shopping for costumes since they have been wanting Halloween costumes for the last 2 months. Louise has been checking them out online and has already changed her mind 3 times…each time telling me she’s ABSOLUTELY, POSITIVELY NOT going to change her mind. Good thing [...]

The family gets paid to spend a day on the lake for a Bayliner Boat shoot.
By Jane on August 11, 2011
Our family was fortunate enough to be selected to do a shoot for Bayliner, the boat company. I guess they liked our family’s International look. Except, poor Benz is too small to be on a boat so I had to make arrangements for him to stay home. Luckily, as I may have mentioned, my parents [...]

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. [...]

Individual Mommy Time with Thelma.
By Jane on January 22, 2010
Dick and I like to give the girls some one-on-one time and so we’ll split up, each of us taking one of the girls. They like to have that individual attention from us. Of course, I am the photographer and so I have pictures of my time with the girls.

I get a loaner while getting a car inspected. Testing out the Lexus IS250!!!
By Jane on April 25, 2011
The other day I had to take a Lexus in to get a 46-point inspection done on it. Not having the time to wait around for it, I asked Lexus to give me a loaner…and boy did they! Lexus gave me a choice of either a RX (the small SUV) or the ES (mid-size sedan) or [...]

Toyota Celica decked out with aftermarket body kit. Nice!
By Jane on March 3, 2010
I spotted this pimp car the other day. A green Toyota Celica, suited up with a great body kit. You almost can’t even tell it’s a Celica. Nice!! -Jane, Sports Car Fan.

Potential blood clot causes THIRD BALL.
By Jane on August 17, 2010
Dick’s “member” has now ceased swelling and is looking more normal. Except, there is now a THIRD ball. Jes, a turd ball! (That was for my dear sis. She can appreciate the humor in it.) After doing a lot of research online, Dick thinks it could be a blood clot. My entire family now knows [...]

Removing Fall Leaves, Round 2.
By Jane on November 22, 2009
So, last time, round one was using my handy dandy backpack leaf blower. (Click HERE for that post.). This time, there’s not as many leaves so I use my Husquevarna riding lawn mower to mulch up the leaves and push them to the side. Even though it is sunny today, there is a breeze and it’s chilly.

The girls see their room and kinda help with the closet.
By Jane on March 10, 2010
I held off as long as I could to surprise the girls with their “new” room. Even though I wasn’t finished, I was dying to show them. Plus, they had to come home from my parent’s house at some point. THEIR REACTION Louise was screaming like a crazed girl in love with some teeny-bopper celebrity. [...]

Thelma has her first real soccer match. It’s the FIRE.
By Jane on September 20, 2010
We just had our first soccer match of the season! Louise isn’t playing because she’s one year younger and by the time she decided she wanted to play, it was too late. Coach is just super nice and lets her practice with them. Although Thelma played when she was 5, since it was just a [...]

Biking with my Big Belly. Still do-able.
By Jane on April 12, 2011
With Lucy in town, I thought we would get some much needed exercise and go for a bike ride. Contrary to my mom’s fears and warnings that one should not bike at 7-8 months of pregnancy, I’m still quite capable of using my skinny Sponge Bob legs to peddle myself around. Fanny Mae was quite [...]

Jane Rant: I hate pumping gas.
By Jane on March 4, 2011
I really hate having to stop and get gas. It’s just one of those annoying repetitive tasks! Like doing laundry! I hate standing there, doing nothing, sometimes in the cold, sometimes in the hot (cause you can’t have the car on), and waiting for my gas tank to fill. So mundane. Boring. If I were [...]

Warning Indian Chilli Peppers are HOT! Dick discovers the hard way.
By Jane on July 4, 2010
Dick loves to eat hot chilli peppers and tells me I’m not Vietnamese because I don’t and Vietnamese people eat quite spicy foods. He and my dad enjoy the small Thai peppers that when just taking a small pinch will make your lips burn like hell, a lingering hell. They tell me that you get [...]

Your daily Benz: Sleeping naked baby.
By Jane on July 13, 2011
Who doesn’t love naked baby pictures? These were just taken on the fly. I haven’t had time to set up a proper shoot. Benz sleeps really well. He only wakes up once or twice in the night. I’ll just roll over and nurse him. So edible and yummy!! I could just stare at him all [...]

On a separate plate, put Extra Virgin Olive Oil, your favorite Balsamic Vinegar, some salt and pepper and you’re good to go! I love this [...]

Shakira comes over and we have Persian fish with Persian dirty rice.
By Jane on December 2, 2011
My friend, Shakira, has been dying to meet Benz. I’ve known her as long as I’ve known Dick cause she was actually there the night we met and was with Dick and his friends at the same International Party I was at. Shakira keeps telling me that she’s going to kidnap my boy. So, over the [...]
