The other day, on our way somewhere (I can’t remember where. The pregnancy amnesia never seemed to go away.), Louise was hassling me for some ice skates now that she is taking lessons. Before, she hardly ever wanted to go ice skating but now that I’ve been taking the time to help her, she’s gained a [...]

Your Daily Benz: Muscular Benz.
By Jane on January 15, 2012
Benz loves to stand and climb and gets quite the leg workout these days. He even goes so far as to stand on this tippy-toes. This is not ballet! Check out those swexy muscular calves! Daddy’s hoping these are soccer calves. -Jane, Mommy to Muscular Benz.

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! [...]

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 [...]

Flying Southwest Back to Metropolis: Going back home after a month.
By Jane on January 11, 2010
It’s been a month that we’ve been in LA. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed myself. It’s the first time EVER that I’ve never spent Christmas with my parents but it’s also the first time EVER that I’ve spent Christmas in such warm, lovely weather. Los Angeles is crazy but I really will miss their weather. I had [...]

By Jane on May 5, 2012
While in LA, we ate A LOT, and all different kinds of food from all over. PERSIAN I totally forgot to take pictures of all the Persian food we ate cause it was so often. Of course, Persian breakfast nearly daily. This is us having Persian ice cream in Westwood. I’m having a Persian sorbet [...]

Prince of Persia Review. Jake Gyllenhaal can be my Prince anyday.
By Jane on June 18, 2010
Back to being on good terms, we take the kids to go see Prince of Persia. I wonder who picked this one? Actually, we all wanted to see it. I take out my camera to get some pics. Dick sees me and tells me to put it away. “They’re going to think you’re video taping. [...]

Em discovers Jean Diapers on a late night run to Walmart.
By Jane on August 26, 2010
My whole family is a family of LATE-NIGHTERS, minus Fanny Mae and Freddie Mac, so, it’s great to have a 24-hour Super Walmart that is accessible to us. What are we looking to buy? Nothing in particular. Em spots Jean Diapers! “Sick!” Spoken like a true teenager. I just think it’s funny that my 18-year old [...]

My hydrangeas, before the storm.
By Jane on June 22, 2010
I love hydrangeas. They are so beautiful. Here are some shots of my hydrangeas before we had that crazy hale storm. My mom, who is an avid gardener, gave these to me when they were just wee little things. Now they’ve gotten quite large and make my yard look so whimsical. She tells me you can [...]

A cluttered house is a cluttered mind.
By Jane on December 8, 2009
So, we decide to get rid of all the shit that is cluttering our office because…a cluttered house is a cluttered mind! My house isn’t as messy as like one of those houses you see on Clean House (Great show!) but cleanliness breeds for better quality of thinking and good feng shui for the room. [...]

Surprise visit on my birthday.
By Jane on April 10, 2011
I’m 36 this year. Not a major milestone. And, with me being pregnant this year, no dress-up party like last year. Remember mine and June’s joint birthday bash… Pimps N’ Ho’s? I just wasn’t feelin’ it this year and just wanted to chill with my family. My birthday started out with Dick and the girls making [...]
