Ask Jenni October 30, 2011
Q: Hello Miss Jenni! I’m amaze at how you balance family and fashion! You are an inspiration to me and I’m sure to a lot women and gays too! LOL
It’s my birthday this coming November, I hope you can grant me one of my birthday wishes: Could you blog something like “A day in the life of Jenni” kind of thing. I’m curious of what you’re busy with, what you eat, where you shop, etc. Don’t worry, I’m not a stalker! Haha! I’m just a huge fan! I’m sure hindi lang ako ang my gusto nito! Aminin! It will also give me tips on how to make the most out of my day.
Thank you in advance!

A. Hi!
Birthday wish granted!
Are you ready for my action-packed life? Haha!
Here’s a sneak peek at what my day is like:
Around 3:00 am
Dylan: “Milk, mama! Milk!”
Feed Dylan. Change his diaper. *Yawn* *Goes back to sleep*

Bring Aryanna to school.
The drive to her school gives us a few minutes of bonding time together. *Yawn*
7:00 am
Cook breakfast for Tom and me.
Having breakfast together gives us to time to bond and plan our day.
Me: “You pick up Aryanna later.”
Tom: “I did that yesterday. It’s your turn.”
Me: “I brought her to school this morning!”
Tom: “I did that yesterday too.”
Me: “Oh… more coffee?”
