Welcome to my page! I am Izzy, the Minti Community Administrator. If you have any questions and concerns, Minti mail me and I will gladly help you out.

I'm a 31-year old stay-at-home mom and I've been married for almost 11 years to a my soul mate, MonkeyDad. Our son is Matthew, born March 2005. He is a very strong-willed, independent, highly intense little soul. On June 2007, we added 2 more to our small family. Katelyn & Jordan are identical twins, born 6 1/2 weeks early. The pregnancy was a challenge, with it's ups and downs, but in the got 2 healthy beautiful girls in the end. We are now a family of 5, and everyday is exhausting, but we are loving it.

I have a degree in Psychology and would someday hope to go back to school and work on a Master's in Education.

feminine charms with boyish clothing

Comment Published at 11:1511:152 comments2 comments7 Visits7 VisitsReport
This post is from from my other blog here

Thing 1 and Thing 2 are sporting boy's clothing today. It seems only boys' clothing are ever long enough to cover their knees to afford a little protection when crawling. But no worries, I think the butterfly hair clip and the bangle more than brings their feminine charm.

Peek-a-boo, I see you!

ET phones home. I do hope she's getting a good reception.

a smooch

Is there anything more special than a smooch from a big brother?
We know it won't be long until headlocks and take downs become the norm so we cherish moments like this. (Thing 1)

Thing 1 & Thing 2?

Comment Published at 04:4604:469 comments9 comments21 Visits21 VisitsReport

Some people have asked me why I call my twins, Thing 1 and Thing 2 now. Someone thought I just may be mad at them. lol    The reason I am starting to call the twins Thing1 and Thing2 (from Dr. Seuss' book), is for privacy reasons. I am not hesitant about posting pictures of my children (as you can see from my blog)  so I am just taking precautions. Though I have never used my last name anywhere, I just want our information a little bit harder to search for.

I can't think of a Dr. Seuss' character to name my son though. Any suggestions? My son is highly energetic, independent, and loud so I am looking for a Dr. Seuss character that matches this somewhat.

finally, fireworks!

The little man was constantly asking to see fireworks all day long, and thankfully I was able to find one that was rescheduled yesterday evening at 9:15. I didn't want to raise his hopes again, so I cautioned that if there was a storm, there wouldn't be any fireworks. But thankfully, though the clouds were cloudy and there were a few rumbles of thunder, it stayed dry. We packed up the kiddies and went the little man's 2nd fireworks ever. (His first was at Disney World when he was 18 months old). He was so excited, he couldn't contain himself.

We watched from the Target parking lot, which worked out really well. We got there early so we were able to read some bedtime stories. When the the fireworks started, Thing2's eyes grew as big as a silver dollar, and Thing1 looked ready to throw a humongous wail. But Daddy stayed in the car with them and they calmed down holding onto his hands.

We had a late night, but fortunately, for once in this little boy's life, he woke up late at 8am allowing us to sleep in a bit longer.
