Girls, if you want new Converses and Heely’s, you’re gonna have to save yo money!
By Jane on October 19, 2011
Money doesn’t fall from trees (although it would be really nice if it did) and I get super annoyed when my girls run up to me and ask me to buy this and that and many times, without even looking at the price! My first response to their request is always, “Did you look at [...]

Sometimes a tom boy but still a princess at heart. Thelma was cleaning up her room and well, it needed it! I guess dressing up makes cleaning more fun. She looks just absolutely radiant in this dress. More pics below…

When someone JUST falls asleep, DO NOT BOTHER them, unless you want a new hole torn in your ass.
By Jane on March 19, 2010
WARNING! WARNING! WARNING! When someone I JUST falls asleep, DO NOT BOTHER them me, unless you want a new hole torn in your ass!!! (Dick!) So, I’m extremely tired from being up the night before, getting minimal sleep, running around, hanging out with family and friends…up since 6:30 with no naps in between. I know, hard [...]

Green Tea, Apple Cinnamon Cake & Art Time
By Jane on November 7, 2009
The girls recently came across a drawing book that I had when I was a kid, saved by my dear Mom (she keeps EVERYTHING). Inspired, they wanted to learn how to draw like Mommy. I told them it just takes practice and explained some basics. Try not to draw from memory (which usually turns out [...]

Silly Bandz: The new friendship bracelet? Let’s go back to the old days.
By Jane on October 14, 2010
When I was in middle school, making friendship bracelets were all the rage and I was the queen of making string bracelets. No really. I was. I would spend hours upon hours knotting these colorful bracelets, all the while trying to come up with new patterns and styles to impress the kids at school. I [...]

Microwave Rice Krispy Treats: Easiest way to make em.
By Jane on March 4, 2010
This Jane is not really a fan of Rice Krispy Treats. I know, how UN-American. I’ve just grown out of the marsh mellow phase of my childhood. It grosses me out to think of how those marsh mellows are coagulating in my stomach. Pretty disgusting if you think about it.

By Jane on November 18, 2010
My mom (Fanny Mae) being a Chemical Engineer, is exceptionally thorough…down to the most minute details. Fanny Mae is looking to replace her internet router, which she has had for many many years and now needs to be replace it because it’s died. She’s at Best Buy, talking to one of the sales guys and asks so [...]

Your daily Benz: Notorious B(enz).I.G.
By Jane on August 12, 2011
Sweet Benz was chillaxing in the pool in a floating device that my friend showed me he had for his baby. I got it at Target for $20 and it even has a cover that snaps in to shade him but I haven’t used it yet. We decided we needed a floaty because holding [...]

What do you do when your kids ask the ultimate question: Is Santa real?
By Jane on December 1, 2009
It is the inevitable question that every parent faces at some point or another. Louise is asking me AGAIN if Santa is real. The answer? Not so easy. Do you continue with your trickery so that your child can believe in the goodness that is Santa Claus? Or tell them the truth and hope there [...]

CLOSET CLEANSING: Getting rid of bad CHI and organizing the kids closet!
By Jane on November 9, 2010
It seems every couple of months, we have to go through a CLOSET CLEANSING. This time it’s for the kids’ closet. As you know, I can’t stand a chaotic mess so I make the girls clean out their closet. They’re complaining of not having enough space so we also decide to get rid of anything [...]

Not a fan of spring mattresses, how about a futon mattress?
By Jane on December 29, 2010
The bed frames that we got for the girls are like platform beds where a box is not needed. Dick has a thing for futon mattresses and so wanted to get that particular kind for the girls since he believes they give you better support for your back. He hates spring mattresses. The girls were [...]

Pregnancy woes: Can’t sleep. Itchy Stomach.
By Jane on December 29, 2010
The sleepless nights have already started. It’s 4:30am. For some reason, I was under the illusion that this wouldn’t happen until after the baby is born. Tossing and turning in discomfort. And, why does your stomach have to itch so dang much. -Jane, Sleepless & Itchy.

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 [...]

Jane: Wacking and Blowing Preggar.
By Jane on March 12, 2011
OMG, that title was too easy to pass up. I kill myself. (that comes with a knee-slap too). Sorry, I sometimes have a weird sense of humor. Must be the hormones. Yes, I’m going to blame everything on pregnancy hormones. Because I can. As I may have mentioned, it’s difficult to slow down. And I [...]

Finally Jane sees a celebrity: Another Jane…Lynch from Glee at Urth Cafe.
By Jane on January 11, 2010
It’s our last day in LA and we had just spent the night at Lucy and Martha’s house. We wake up and decide to go to Urth Cafe AGAIN for breakfast. Yes, if they had one in Metropolis, I would be a regular there as well. Lucy, Martha and the girls head over there first [...]

Getting Out Tea Stains with Oxy Clean
By Jane on February 15, 2010
We’re Persian, so we drink a lot of Persian Black Tea. We like to drink it hot and iced. My container for the iced tea is stained pretty badly. But, it’s impossible to clean and is only getting worse. How do I scrub this out with a sponge? I’ve tried and it doesn’t work! OXY CLEAN [...]

Sushi date with our girls at a more “traditional” Japanese restaurant.
By Jane on January 17, 2012
With Benz being a baby and requiring a lot of attention, we decided the girls too need some alone time with their parents. Until Benz, it was just the four of us for the longest time so Dick and I took the girls out to dinner one Friday night and left Benz home with my [...]

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 [...]

Gobble Gobble. Happy Thanksgiving from our family to yours.
By Jane on November 25, 2010
I just wanted to wish everyone an extremely great Thanksgiving. I have so much to be thankful for and I hope to try to remember that daily rather than once a year. My favorite thing about the holidays is, hands down, having the family come together. It’s all about that for me. This year, my sis [...]
