As I may have mentioned, Thelma is taking ice skating lessons and cannot get enough of it. She wants to go at every opportunity and likes to get there early so she can maximize ice time. We went for a private lesson today to prepare for a competition that is coming up. She had her [...]

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 [...]

Convenience shopping at Fanny Mae and Freddie Mac’s.
By Jane on October 27, 2010
We were out of eggs and rather than going to the grocery store and have to get dressed, drive, park, walk all the way to the back the store, get my eggs, possibily get distracted and buy a million other things, come back to the front, wait in line, check out, pay, find and walk to [...]

Man, do I love watermelon. Oh, and being lazy to spit out seeds, I prefer seedless. I’m so excited that watermelon season has started! I pretty much live off watermelon in the summer. That and corn on the cob! Looks like I tried to stash one under my dress no? (Which you may recognize. [...]

I was meaning to plan a party for my 35th but have been just too busy with everything to even get it together. Doesn’t mean its not happening…just delayed a bit. However, I still had the MOST FABULOUS low key day…which was much needed. The day was ABSOLUTELY gorgeous…75F and sunny! My girlfriends came over, [...]

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 [...]

Pics from the new park that we were on the way to when my parents were following me. The sky was quite dramatic that day, especially since we got there around sundown. As the parents, we thought it necessary to test out the equipment to make sure it would be safe for the kids. LOL [...]

Tired, fed up, I ditch all the work and head to Starbucks and the pool.
By Jane on June 16, 2010
So by now you know that in the last 48 hours I’ve endured a sick child, running around to take care of our car business…kids swimming practice…packing, loading, driving…painting, cleaning, scrubbing…and no sleep. The next morning, Dick takes his pretty little ass’s time waking up. He doesn’t get up until like 11:00. Mind you, I’ve [...]

While the girls are playing on the playground, Dick and I go for a walk with Benz. Only, it seems like it’s just the two of them… Dick took a few of me but they were just hideous. Not solely the fault of the photographer. I wish Dick had some photo skillz so that I [...]

We visit a beautiful garden belonging to a Historic House for Easter.
By Jane on April 5, 2010
My mom read in the news paper somewhere that this historic house was having an Easter thing for kids so we go. An egg hunt was held in the gardens, which are just beautiful here. I think that this place is used as a venue for weddings. It’s gorgeous!

All Work and No Play??? NO WAY!!!
By Jane on August 31, 2009
We just had some tenants move out of one of our residential rental properties and so, it’s time for the cleaning crew to come in. By cleaning crew, I mean myself, Dick, and the girls. By doing it ourselves, we save big and the girls love a change of scenery. So, we pack our bags for a few days but since there’s nothing in the townhouse, so we also pack blankets, pillows, food and stuff to cook with (this helps cut down on expenses and time since we can just stay put and work). Yes, I’m a slave driver! No,

In LA, you spend a third of your life in your car…
By Jane on December 14, 2009
It’s taking me some time to get into my groove here…so hard to find the time to blog. All my time is spent in the car, stuck in traffic, getting from place to place. It takes at least 45 minutes to get anywhere, even just driving 5 miles takes this long. Five miles in Metropolis [...]

Louise hand models for Dentek Fun Flossers for kids.
By Jane on September 24, 2010
Louise got called in be a “hand model” for a print job. We didn’t know what product she was modeling or who the company was until we got to the studio for the shoot. The product was DENTEK FUN FLOSSERS for kids. On the way to the studio, Louise and I were chatting. “I hope [...]

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 [...]

Your Daily Benz: Mommy and Daddy Vomit Victims.
By Jane on August 24, 2011
Benz is such a sweet, innocent thing that you just can’t be upset with him at all, ever. Seriously, look at this yummy, chubby thing. I totally LOVE baby’s hands and feet. So yummilicious like mini sausages. Benz is like a little monkey the way his feet clasp together. It’s like his feet are saying [...]

Warning: Meditation with Kids can induce more stress.
By Jane on September 1, 2010
It had a been a rough day…I was mentally and physically drained. So, I decided to take some time out to meditate, as Dick often tells me I should. Just before we were getting ready to go to soccer practice, I tell the girls (who are all dressed in their soccer gear…cleats and all)…let’s MEDITATE! [...]

Improper watermelon slicing strikes AGAIN!
By Jane on May 22, 2010
Just as soon as I wrote the post on IMPROPER watermelon slicing did I open the fridge to find this: We have more than just stuff to drink in our fridge, trust me. Apparently Dick and J Lo have NOT referred to my blog on the PROPER way to slice a watermelon. Maybe I should [...]

Just because I’m in my last trimester doesn’t mean the work stops. Besides loving to cut my grass, I wanna make sure I’m in shape to deliver this baby. Sometimes it’s a bumpy ride…hopefully this won’t put me into labor. Although I may use it as an alternative to be naturally induced. Ha! Yep, still [...]

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.
