Remember I mentioned Dick is running a marathon soon, therefore he’s training and researching about marathons online. DICK: “Baby, I’ve been researching about marathons. And some people have commented about the long term effects of having run a marathon. Like, this one guy said he couldn’t do anything RAPIDLY for 18 months after he ran [...]

Thankful that we are unscathed by record hail, rain, thunderstorms, and tornados.
By Jane on April 28, 2011
The South was hit SUPER HARD by a tremendous amount of thunderstorms, tornados and crazy hail. Some of my friends were reporting baseball and golfball-sized hail, dinged-up cars, damage to their houses, and leaking roofs. Dick was out of town so we went to my parents’ house. As soon as we heard the pounding of [...]

New Toilet Seat Cover with Kids Lid!!
By Jane on March 29, 2011
It was time to get a new toilet seat cover for one of our toilets. The old one was still in great shape, except, there was a chip on the seat that made it look like poo was stuck to it. Every time I looked at it, it was my first thought too. But seriously, [...]

Lucy and Martha want some Christmas pictures. CUTE & CHEESY is the theme.
By Jane on December 17, 2009
Friends and Roommates Lucy Lu and Martha Stewart request that I take some pictures of them so they can send out Christmas cards of their “family”. Their family consists of them and their dogs, both of which are the same breed, Brussels Griffon, only they quite differ in size. Lucy tells me that her and Martha [...]

Louise and Daddy duke it out…Kung Fu Panda-Style.
By Jane on December 15, 2009
One of the reasons I love Dick so much is that he’s really a fantastic Dad. Dick ADORES his girls and loves hanging with them, playing sports with them, wrestling with them, watching cartoons with them, etc. Being a big kid himself, all of this comes super naturally and easily.

Currently picking my foot and ped-egging to smooth it over while I’m blogging. Slightly bleeding. Dayum. At least it’s somewhat getting better. The left foot is healed. -Jane, Ped-Egger.

We finally make it to the Orchid Show.
By Jane on March 8, 2011
Finally! After trecking through the mall, getting annoyed with the kiosk guy who messed up my hair, and feeding the kids lunch, we arrive at the orchid show! It only took 1.5 hours to get from the parking lot and down one-wing of the mall but we made it! One of my favorite things to do [...]

My country bumpkin and city slicker.
By Jane on June 10, 2011
My girls are quite similar but yet also quite different. Says Thelma (Country Bumpkin): “I wanna live in a cozy country-like house and have a red truck.” Says Louise (City Slicker): “I wanna live in a big city and a big fancy house.” I just wanted to write it down and have it for the [...]

It’s SO hard to find a good mechanic. Well we have found one!…kinda.
By Jane on December 2, 2009
Our garage is a multipurpose room for us. When we first bought the house, there was no room for a “playroom”. So, Dick sealed up the garage, cleaned it and painted the concrete. We layed down a couple of rugs, put our spare king bed out there, all the kids toys, and later the ping [...]
Yet Another Roadtrip: Picking up Daddy & Visiting with Friends
By Jane on November 18, 2009
It’s time to retreive Daddy since he’s been gone for over 2 weeks in LaLa Land (A.k.a. LA, Los Angeles). We found a great reasonable flight that is direct but it’s a 3 hour drive to this airport. Dick’s flight is supposed to arrive at 3:30pm and so I’m rushing to hit the road after Mother-Daughter [...]

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 [...]

So many socks, so little matches…annoying.
By Jane on February 12, 2010
I don’t understand how we could have so many socks… And come up with still SO MANY without matches. Yes, these are ALL DIFFERENT. I hate it when I don’t have the matching pair to socks. -Jane, Non-Fan of Non-Matching Socks

No longer am I able to just get up. I now have to roll over first or have someone assist me by pushing or pulling me up. Sigh… -Jane, Roley Poley Preggar.

Vietnam??? Looks more like Hawaii. The fam visits a popular Western Resort, Phu Quoc.
By Jane on February 28, 2011
My mom had heard of a popular island, Phu Quoc, that had been renovated into a beautiful resort where mostly, the clientel are Westerners and Europeans. She had heard it was so popular that it was nearly impossible to find a hotel room because it was their peak season and they were booked! Well, they were [...]

Painting the girls room. We’re going TECHNO! Color #1.
By Jane on March 7, 2010
It seems that around this time every year, when it starts to warm up, I get this urge to paint. Yes, this Jane loves to paint. I’ve been wanting to do the girls room for a while. The last time, I just painted some polka dots all over it with leftover paint I had over [...]

This year, Lucy and I hosted Thanksgiving Dinner at my house this year. I have made Thanksgiving dinner one time by myself and that was long ago, before Dick and I even had kids. Usually, Freddy Mac is the one who makes our yummy Thanksgiving dinner but this year Lucy and I thought we would [...]

Andy’s Pool Hall in Little Italy…more like a club…and co-ed bathrooms too???
By Jane on July 19, 2010
Since Little Italy is right around the corner from my aunt’s place, Eminem, MIA and I go out in search of a place to shoot pool one night. There used to be a place that I would play at all the time but that was almost 10 years ago and it’s no longer there. So, [...]

Taking Benz outside for some Vitamin D.
By Jane on June 2, 2011
At only 5 days old, the sun was out and so I decided to take my sweet Benz out so he could get some Vitamin D. OMG, words can’t even describe how in love I am with this little guy. So dang sweet… He’s just tiny! Only 5 lbs 8 oz because breast-fed babies tend [...]

A great natural substitute for your eye make-up remover.
By Jane on September 12, 2011
Whenever I get out of the shower or pool, and because I don’t use waterproof mascara, I look like a scary mess. My kids tell me all the time, “Mommy, you look scary today.” Thank you dahling! That’s me, Scary-Mary Jane. Mascara doesn’t come off very well, even when you use soap. You have to [...]

Huge hail storm in the middle of June like I’ve never seen one before.
By Jane on June 15, 2010
We interrupt the current broadcast to give you the most recent update on a large hail storm that just hit Metropolis. I know, I’m stepping out of chronological order but I had to post the pictures from this crazy hail storm that just hit us. Every day we get a sporadic thunderstorm but today’s was [...]

With my pregnancy amnesia and mush for brains, renting from RED BOX does not save THIS family any money. And, to be honest, I can’t really blame it on being pregnant. $1 per day sounds great until you’ve had it a few days and I like that I can return it to ANY Red Box. [...]
