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.

I am going to attack the kitchen and living room. They've been neglected and left untamed for a week or so. That and I fear about my future!
My knee has been aching on and off for months. I've been complaining to the hubby, and though he sympathizes, he thought it's just a regular aches and pains. One day, I came up to him and made him listen to the sound my knee was making and it freaked him out, which in turn freaked me out! Now he's urging me to go to the doctor and tells me I may need surgery. YIKES!! Why do I need my husband's confirmation in order for me to want to see a doctor? I don't really know. I guess it comes with the territory of being a mother - everyone comes first and me last. That and I have a high tolerance for pain.
So... now I want to clean my kitchen and livingroom in case I have to dissappear for surgery. I know, I know, the thought of surgery is premature, as I haven't even seen a doctor yet! But it would be such a horror if I do go to the doctor and the doctor doesn't let me come home and then we have to call my in-laws to come help us out and she sees how horrible the house is!
I am going in. Call 911 if you don't hear from me!!!! |

This post is from from my other blog here Okay so here is the answer to the quiz.. A&C are both Jordan. B is Katelyn. It is quite a bit harder to tell them apart when it is just the eyes rather than looking at facial expressions. -Mr.Dad |

This post is from from my other blog here  Okay the wife doesn't see the humor in testing if you can tell the twins apart. By twins, I am referring to our daughters not anything else. So here is the test, above is a set of 3 pictures of just the eyes of our daughters, and yes there is at least one picture of each. So the test is, which pics are of the same twin, i.e. is A & C the same etc. If you are a grandparent I expect you to use names, or else. Please note, you can add a comment below by clicking on "post comment" to give your answer. -Mr.Dad |

My family subscribes to Netflix, an online movie rental company. Sometimes I rent a movie just for me, that hubby doesn't watch, and vice versa. And on the weekends, we rent a movie that we think our son would like. Renting for a 3 year old is not so easy though, if we hand't seen the movie before hand. So with movies we haven't seen before, we read a lot of reviews. Unfortunately ratings like PG, PG13, etc is pretty much useless for parents. Case in point, we rented Chicken Little this past weekend because our son requested it. While he enjoyed the majority of it, the alien shooting/zapping others in the end was too scary for him. This movie has a rating of G - good for all ages. Apparently, not for 3 year olds.
So today, I was looking at Netflix and happened to see a bright green button within the review page. I click on it, and was pleasantly surprised about the rating/review. And what's even more surprising is that I recognize it bing a Minti member: Commonsensemedia.
On their review of Chicken Little , they mentioned about the the alien mayhem toward the end of the movie. This would have been useful had I found out about this review beforehand.
As a parent, I find commonsensemedia very useful and the fact that they're working with Netflix is even nicer!!!
