Wordless Wednesday

My shopping buddy <3

Out with the old, in with the new

I finally had to say goodbye to my Iphone 3GS on Friday :( The screen cracked interally so I have to take it to Apple in Chicago next week and see if they can fix it. If it can be fixed, Kyle will take the 3GS and we'll put all of Addi's games on his 3G and that will be her phone so she doesn't need to play with ours anymore. Yes, you just read that right. My 2 1/2 yr old daughter will have her own Iphone. She isn't spoiled or anything...

My poor poor Iphone :/

 In the mean time I need a phone ASAP! I can't live with a phone and since we don't have a landline it's a necessity. Friday night I went to AT&T and was looking around at phones and saw this one

It's the Motorolla Atrix 4G



It runs on the Android technology (which I'm not use to AT ALL!!) and overall was a pretty good phone. I looooooooved the swype feature. You just swype your finger over the letters and the phone knows what word you're trying to type. Definitely made texting/typing much faster. The app store suuuuucks. None of my Apple apps were on the Droid market (except Facebook, Words with Friends and YouTube) so that was a downer. And I couldn't transfer my pictures or the majority of my music to the phone without buying a $5 app that got mixed reviews. The battery life also was absolutely horrible. I unplugged it at 5am and by 7 i had 70% remaining after only checking facebook a few times and playing WWF. 

So I took it back today.

And picked up this beautiful phone :)

Its the Iphone 4... in white. I've wanted a white Iphone since they came out with them a few years ago. Seriously love this phone. I'm so acustom to Apple products, I'm not sure why I ever thought I could switch to an Android operating system. But no more stressing about the battery not lasting all day, my pictures/music not transfering over, nothing! Plugged the phone in and synced with iTunes and it's golden. Ahhh so easy and simple!  

But now I can say that I have tried Android OS and don't like it :)



Family Fun Day!

Sunday we took a family trip up to Brookfield Zoo. It was SO.MUCH.FUN! Addi had a blast (like I knew she would)! We saw all but 2 exhibits and spent about 45 minutes in the Monkey area. The only area I wasn't fond of was the bat cave. I seriously had a panic attack and had to leave. Kyle and Addi stayed behind, I didn't want Addi to see me freak out so I just walked faster then they did. Here are a few pictures of us there. I think our next trip is going to be to the Shedd :)

~She was super excited to see the gorillas~

Love this picture <3

All tuckered out from being at the zoo all day

Addi's 1st gymnastics session is over tomorrow. It will start again in two weeks at The Courts. It is also family visit day and all of her grand parents are going to come see her :) I'm REALLY hoping she's on her best behavior!
