It looks like a tomato or a mini-pumpkin but actually this sweet, crunchy fruit is well loved by Asians and Persians, especially my family. It’s fall and my parents’ Persimmon tree is full of Persimmons. One year, they had close to 500 of these orange beauties on ONE tree! Then we had a late frost [...]

Video streaming Oscar’s bowel movements??? Really???
By Jane on November 29, 2009
Oscar has this unique way of sitting. It always looks like he’s ready to take a dump. Lucy says it’s JUST the way he sits. Fine. But the dang thing FARTS ALOT so maybe he’s stopped up or something and sits like that because he’s constipated. Just a theory Lucy.

Bike trailer still holding up.
By Jane on September 30, 2010
We bought this bike trailer for the girls when they were like 2-3 years old. Here Dick is showing off that he can bike with NO HANDS, rubbing it in because I can’t. I am only proficient enough that I can now let go of one hand. But, even at ages 7 and 8, the [...]

“Sherlock and Watson” on the search for a Wasp Nest.
By Jane on November 19, 2009
In the last few days we’ve killed about 3 wasps in our house. Wasps, not bees. Their sting is much worse, or so I’ve heard, but I’m not wanting to find out first hand. I’m not scared of bees at all but for some reason, wasps, hornets or yellow jackets seem way angrier and scarier. [...]

The Paparazzi are hanging out at the Ken Pave Salon waiting for Jessica Simpson .
By Jane on January 8, 2010
We had just gotten back to Lucy’s house and there’s a huge crowd of paparazzi outside of Ken Pave’s Salon. I’m wondering who they’re waiting for but given that it’s Ken Pave, I’m assuming it’s either Eva Longoria or Jessica Simpson.

As I said, while we were working, the girls were playing. Thelma especially loves to swing really high and then jump off. Louise, not so much. She is much more cautious. -Jane, Mother to Swinging/Jumping Girls.

After watching the World Cup, and because Dick plays in the front yard with the girls all the time, Thelma decided she wanted to play soccer this season. This is not the first time we’ve let her join. SOCCER AT 5 Back when Thelma was five, we enrolled her on the soccer team. Adorbs!! At this [...]

We would like to announce that little Benz will no longer be a little brother but later this year will be a big brother. Yes, you can pick up your jaw off the floor now. No we did not plan it although for me, it’s not really a big surprise. Dick could look at me [...]

Sweet Louise donning one of my favorite T-shirts. I love seeing my girls in comfy, oversized T-shirts. Looks way better on her than me anyway. Too tight. Is this pig not the cutest thing ever? I’m talkin’ about the one wearing the t-shirt. Hehe. -Jane, Comfy T-shirt Lover

The girls wanted to make their hair full of braids. I think they initially wanted corn rows but this Jane ain’t that talented. So, I made do and just did a bunch of small braids on their head. First, you need a bunch of rubber bands. Then you just work in small sections, trying your [...]

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! [...]
