I’m taking Thelma and Louise on a field trip with their homeschool co-op. Where are we going today? We’re headed to Parrot Mountain and Wonderworks. Because our co-op scheduled a group tour, we were able to get a discount at Parrot Mountain for only $5 per child, one parent is free. Also, [...]

Asian secret to strong, lush hair. Uh-huh.
By Jane on July 27, 2010
I came across this article titled: “The Asian secret to strong, lush hair.” and was intrigued. I’m Asian…what’s the secret? I didn’t realize we were holding back. Reading further, I discover what I already knew…there IS no secret! It’s GENETICS people! I have thick hair (I don’t know about luscious) and I don’t use OOKISA. [...]

Thelma and Louise get dressed to go to “work” in fashion..
By Jane on May 3, 2010
Thelma and Louise were playing pretend the other day that they were both going to work. “What do people wear when they go to work?” “It depends on where you work. Where do you guys work?” “We work in FASHION. Like in the Devil Wears Prada.” “Well, then just put together whatever you think is [...]

By Jane on February 21, 2010
Dick and I happened to be on the other side of town so we decided to pop into a Goodwill there to see what they have since it’s bigger than the one close to us. I give away alot of stuff to Goodwill but I also like to shop there. Some of my most favorite [...]

Early Maternity Wear: Sporty Maternity and layering clothes at 4 months.
By Jane on December 29, 2010
Being around 4 months pregnant, I kinda still fit in some of my clothes. Kinda. Being in that in-between stage where one does not yet look fully pregnant and is thicker in the middle than usual makes it difficult to find clothes to wear. I want to be able to use whatever clothes I have [...]

Our first real swim meet…a very long one.
By Jane on July 1, 2011
It’s our first real swim meet of the season. The girls are excited because their best friends from Gotham City are here, you know…the ones where we had the meltdown in the parking lot? First are warm-ups. This is before all the chaos starts. Swim meets are usually pretty crowded. You have the swimmers and [...]

By Jane on March 12, 2010
You know how some people have imaginary friends growing up? Well, Thelma has a world called “Stuffed Animal World”. This is where Munck comes from…who she believes to be very real, growing and living with feelings and emotions. Munck is very much part of the family (Ducky as well.).

Backtracking a bit to Benz’s 4-month doctor visit.
By Jane on October 27, 2011
Benz is now 5-months old but, since I’m so behind on blogging, let’s backtrack to his 4-month doctor visit. Dick is in town and wants to come with us to the Doctor’s office. Such twins, ey? So, like many things we do…it’s a family affair. Thelma even brought her school stuff along. Such good girls [...]

Your daily Benz: Grandma knits Benz a blankie.
By Jane on June 24, 2011
My mom has been knitting a blanket for Benz. It’s super nice so I wanted to take some pictures of him with it while he’s still tiny, even though she wasn’t quite done with it. Little man has no eyebrows. This concerns Dick but I’m like, he’s Persian! I don’t think hair is one of [...]

Lucy: Sous Chef. We’re making a Persian Chicken Spinach Dish.
By Jane on December 18, 2009
I’m hanging out with my dear sister at her place. She invited me over for dinner and would like for me to cook her some Persian food. I decide to make a Chicken Spinach dish (Aloo Esfinage only without Aloo). We’re all starving because it’s already dinner time and we’re just getting started. I declare [...]

It is through my own mental anguish and inner turmoil throughout my life that I have always sought to understand my pain and sought to relieve it. I am a firm believer that one can only grow from having experienced hardship or pain. “Many people dream of the hope for success. To me, sucess can [...]

By Jane on January 21, 2011
I came across a great article written by a Chinese/Vietnamese man , Mr. Lac Su, who had “Tigers” for parents. “Tigers” being what Ms. Amy Chua calls herself and her tactics on raising “successful” children. Mr. Su is a psychologist and business executive and despite being seemingly “successful”, explains how years of abuse and strictness affected [...]

Thelma and Louise eating worms?
By Jane on November 11, 2010
Whenever I am lazy to cook and need something fast, I always check to see what kind of INSTANT RAMEN I have in my pantry. Today, we have Chapagetti. It’s a non-soupy, instant noodle that tastes like a black bean sauce. Very yummy! Image by www.homecookingdiary.com. (I threw away the packaging before I remembered to [...]

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, [...]

My great aunt, MAGDA, from my dad’s side lives in South France and was visiting other family in the US so she decided to swing by Metropolis to come see us. The number of visitors we are having this year is insane! But, it’s the best kind of insanity…family! I’m so glad to see her [...]

Thelma and Louise treat Ducky and Monk like their own kids, changing their clothes, feeding them…taking them everywhere we go. If we have to leave them at home, the girls always sweetly explain to Ducky and Monk why they aren’t allowed to come with us. Today, the girls decided to homeschool their own “kids”.

Your daily Benz: Pouty lips and actual tears!
By Jane on July 13, 2011
Sweet Benz is usually a happy, smiling chill baby. But sometimes, when he’s starting to get a little fussy, he does that stick-out-the-bottom lip pout. It’s the cutest thing and when you see it, you just want to give him anything his heart desires! It amazes me how babies innately know how to do this. [...]

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.

Ok so it’s been a while and last time I blogged, we were cleaning our rugs. Let me tell you that we “finished” because around 2am, not because I was tired but…I was feeling queezy in the stomach. Because I could not capture any pictures, this post will be illustrated with a few visuals for [...]
