Caffeine while pregnant…just can’t take the coffee out of this Jane.
By Jane on March 3, 2011
Yes, that’s me and the hubs at Starbucks. Bawk! Pregnant and drinking caffeine. Pregnant women just love it when you tell them they shouldn’t be drinking caffeine. What can I say, I live dangerously. It is a myth that pregnant women are to avoid caffeine completely and actually pregnant women can consume about 200mg of [...]

Being Green. I’m not talking about the environment, I’m talking color!
By Jane on April 8, 2011
It was green day at our homeschool co-op again. Usually it falls on Saint Patrick’s Day but we had to delay it due to maintenance being done at the school. Even still, our co-op is about having fun and GREEN DAY was still on the agenda. Yay! Because my girls love to dress up, [...]

Headband Siblings. He works hard for his money!
By Jane on January 15, 2012
Flashback to Flashdance and the days of headbands. My girls never cease to want to embarrass and torture their little bro. He works hard for his money! So hard for it honey!

J Lo, Will and Carlton visit us in Metropolis.
By Jane on May 12, 2010
My sister-in-law, J Lo and her boys, Will and Carlton, are visiting us for a couple of weeks and my girls are SUPER EXCITED. They adore their cousins. We’re still homeschooling so Will and Carlton get to come with us to the Co-op. Coming from LA, I guess we’re considered the “cun-tree” but I’d take [...]

Soon though, things started to get serious and Benz was smitten. In the end, he was kissing her feet!! Whoa boy! Take [...]

The girls are always playing with their little bro, Benz. So, after Louise’s birthday party, they figured it would be easier to know where he was by tying Louise’s helium birthday balloon to their little brother. Whaaaa??? Benz doesn’t mind. He’s preoccupied with the TV buttons… And drawer knobs. He’s fascinated with them! So long [...]

Crepes, custom Converses, snakes and parrots, the beach, and our Vegan eats a hot dog.
By Jane on April 10, 2012
It’s the day after the marathon so we are going to enjoy ourselves around Santa Monica. We walk around the corner and find a place for breakfast…crepes. Except, I’m disappointed because they didn’t pour the crepes fresh, they already had them prepared and just placed them on the crepe cooker. I am all about french [...]

Unless I take pictures of myself, I would never have any. Now you know why most pictures of me have one arm extended and half of my face is lopped off. Of course, Dick says it’s because my head is so big and only half of it would fit on the camera. Such the comedian [...]

By Jane on December 30, 2010
After nearly waiting two weeks in high anticipation of having their own NEW beds, we are finally ready to start the assembly process. We start with one bed and take out all the pieces. I’m in charge of reading the instructions and telling everyone what to do. As Dick points out, “You ARE the Eng-gin-eer!”

A super chill Artsy New Year’s with my three kids.
By Jane on January 2, 2012
As with most New Year’s, I don’t do much but just chill at home. For some reason, I just don’t like being out when I know so many people are out there drinking and driving. I don’t think I’ve ever done it BIG for New Year’s. Maybe one year Dick and I went to downtown [...]

Lucy and I look for the perfect short and fat Christmas tree.
By Jane on December 3, 2011
We usually do Christmas at my mom’s house so the Christmas tree goes over there. Every year, it’s Lucy and I who go shopping for the tree. Don’t let the picture fool you into thinking Lucy is taller than me…Lucy is sporting 3″ heeled boots. In actuality, she’s one inch SHORTER than me, even though [...]
