Last week my cell phone/mommy radar died. I had been anticipating this so I wasn’t surprised. Everyone else in my family has a smartphone and I have to admit, I see the appeal. If I had known how handy they were for keeping organized I would have insisted on the kids getting them a lot sooner than they did.
I finally got tired of the dead battery alarm going off every 4 hours and marched myself over to the store and bought myself an iphone. I even bought the one with Siri so I could annoy the pants off everyone within 100 yards of me. Siri did save me from running out of gas however so I’m happy with her.
I went straight to the app store so I could download Instagram. The way I figure it, now I can make funky collages of my photos…just like quilting, only faster.
What fun you're going to have, Erin! I'm on my first iPhone too, and can't begin to tell you what a great/useful 'toy' it is. Unfortunately Siri doesn't always understand my Australian accent though. Love your hot pink case too - the same as mine :-)

OK, I can see you're already HOOKED! ;) It doesn't take long. Enjoy the pants off your iPhone! I do mine!

Congrats! I am not a tech hound, but i love, love, love my iphone. I'm constantly looking up information, from definitions & pronunciation to Bible references and history. I also love knitting podcasts. Enjoy!

Congratulations on your new tool/toy! I'm sure you'll love it even more when you come to know it better. Have fun!

I gave in to the smart phone in January. I knew I would love it, and I do. I Do I Do I Do!

I just got an Iphone too..but decided with a bossy teen son, I didn't need anyone telling me what to do. I opted out of Siri. Look up GroceryIQ. Its free, I have no affilation. But its my fav best friend at the moment. If I have my phone, I have my list..and its organized by aisles! I'm so nerdy! lolol

When I bought an iphone for my daughter's graduation gift a few weeks ago, I got one for myself, too! I'm so glad I did. All the cool kids are doing it! I downloaded instagram, but haven't used it yet. Julia loves it.

This Christmas release your fears to the God who says we no longer need to be afraid.
