Fun with Jane & Dick

Thelma and Louise got the coveted Baby Whoopsie Doo that eats and then pees or poos by their dear auntie Lucy Lu. They are super-thrilled since they’ve been asking for these urinating and eliminating dolls for some time now.

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 [...]

Let me tell you about my girl Confuchsia. Similar to Confuscius but it’s ConFuchsia, like fuchsia, the magenta color. Who even knew that fuchsia was even spelled like that?!?!? I’ve been getting it wrong all this time! Confuchsia and I clicked right off the bat. What I like about her is that Confuchsia speaks her mind and she [...]

I came across this old student desk from the 50s and I just loved it. The seat and desk height can be adjusted and the desk top lifts for storage of your school stuff. The gentleman I bought it from was so nice, he delivered it to my house. I was hoping he had two [...]
