Remember when we went to the Mayfield Corn Maze? Well, I picked up a good size pumpkin there and it’s been sitting there until well…now. Thelma, Louise and I finally decided that we would carve the pumpkin. A bit last minute but better than never.

Mother’s Day Start: Breakfast at McD’s and a Flat Tire.
By Jane on May 12, 2011
Mother’s Day started off with breakfast with my girls. Mommy was craving some McDonald’s…which would come as a surprise to those who know me but pregnancy just brings about the incredible need for JUNK! Dick was still in bed so I took the girls and we headed to McD’s for breakfast. (In Dick’s defense, he [...]

Thelma was inspired to do a painting the other day. She found this extra piece of plywood I had in our shed and painted it white. Working on her masterpiece. Truly an artist at work. It’s almost like she’s doing a dance. Go on girl! Get that creativity out! -Jane, Mother of Artistic Thelma.

Pregnancy Rhinitis is killing me. I hate not being able to breath through my nose.
By Jane on December 17, 2010
One of the things I detest most in life is having a stuffy nose and having to breath through my mouth. I feel like I’m eating all the dust particles in the air. Since being pregnant, it’s been non-stop stuffage of the nose. After doing some research, it turns out this actually a condition and is [...]

Thankful that we are unscathed by record hail, rain, thunderstorms, and tornados.
By Jane on April 28, 2011
The South was hit SUPER HARD by a tremendous amount of thunderstorms, tornados and crazy hail. Some of my friends were reporting baseball and golfball-sized hail, dinged-up cars, damage to their houses, and leaking roofs. Dick was out of town so we went to my parents’ house. As soon as we heard the pounding of [...]

Your Daily Benz: Scrunchy stomach sleeper.
By Jane on June 21, 2011
I just love seeing little babies scrunch themselves up in a little bundle when they sleep. Yes, I am aware of SIDS but I only let him nap every now and then on his tummy. I don’t let him sleep on his tummy at night. It’s so cute and he sleeps so soundly when he’s [...]

Ice covers Metropolis. Schools are out…well…not all of them.
By Jane on December 16, 2010
It’s been damn cold here in Metropolis. Last night, we just got covered with a blanket of ice. One of the great things about homeschooling is that if there is inclement weather, it makes no difference to us. My kids are quite dissaapointed by this. “What do you mean we’re still having school?” -Jane, Homeschool Mom.

The girls want to do their own pumpkins and Jane is inspired by Despicable Me.
By Jane on November 1, 2010
This year, I bought two smaller pumkpins for the girls to carve themselves, totally forgeting that smaller pumpkins are harder to carve. I cut off the tops and let the girls gut the pumpkins themselves. I had bought the pumpkins like a week or so ago and kept delaying carving them. Last year, we carved [...]

We had spent our first night at Mr. Bean’s house so the kids could play. The next day, it was time to get to work on our rental property. The first thing we always do when we stay at one of our properties is give it a good cleaning. I don’t like to stay where other [...]

It’s Black Friday and I know some of you were up at the crack of dawn, even before that. Yeah, I was up at 3:30am but there ain’t NO WAY I was heading out in that freezing weather to stand in line for a $10 discount off some appliance. I may be a bargain shopper [...]

Gifts for the girls from their private art teacher.
By Jane on December 10, 2009
My girls take Private Art Classes weekly from an extremely talented artist. Magda is a dear friend and we are so lucky to have her in our lives. She has taught the girls so much about art, all the technical stuff that I have forgotten.

I am one of those people who are really bad at sending stuff in the mail. For some reason it’s just super difficult for me to get to the post office…even when the lines aren’t incredibly long like the other day when I had to stand in line listening to the complainer guy. Unless necessary and [...]

Our days are not like most people’s. We don’t have 9-5 jobs. We don’t send our kids to school. So, here’s a glimpse into a day in the life of Jane and Dick. Every day is different, which makes for a less boring, less monotonous life. We started our day at 11:15am this particular morning [...]

Little Benz is totally getting smothered with love. The girls are always fighting over who’s turn it is to hold Benz and often ask to hold him. “It’s my turn.” “I asked first.” “Remember I asked first but because he was crying, I didn’t get to hold him long.” “You got to hold him two times [...]
