Chilling out with the Izzies

In La Casa De Izzies there are three Izzies. My husband (the idea man): Israel. Our hippsterish son (I know that's not a word but it suites him) : Isaiah. And our sour patch baby girl (no lie she can go from sweet to sour in a second) : Isabel

Lazy evening and mom reads

Working with children leaves me with low energy from time to time, but today I was drained and ran to the kitchen and whipped up some thing quick & yummy. After that we started the Brooklyn 99 series with kiddos............. they laughed so hard. Anyhow soon after it was time to brush teeth and get some sleep for them it is.  Israel and I cuddled up to a documentary we watch them pretty often. Ellie liked having some undivided cuddle time too. Then I moved on to the ultimate sluggish activity of all I got on Facebook and caught up on some actual reading.  These were some of the interesting mom articles some of my friends posted. I normally don't get to read a whole article, but being that the kiddos were already in bed I was able to read with out interruption.

1st read:
This article on "being grounded" really helped me make a mental note as to how to handle the "wonder years" with are the tween and adolescent era that we are embarking on. Tweens now teens just around the corner.

Hits home for me I was a preemie and thus this article is about a preemie. It highlights many things that are close to my heart and relevant in our lives.

Some truth in our parenting perspective is held in this article. Brief synopsis is a young mothers "old school" parenting belief and her view on "modern parenting". I must admit I do agree on most of the article.
