Surely he'll start his own blog just for that right? ha ha As for techy toys I hate to admit that I have stooped to letting my 3 1/2 year old use my iphone 3G (which she has more than mastered btw especially when it comes to silencing alarms and etc) and have gotten phonics apps and other super educational ones such as the bubble wrap app and etc to occupy her when I want to lay in bed a few minutes longer or do some grocery shopping while she tags along. I have our dear friend Melissa to thank for that idea though. What...bubble wrap is not educational?Jennifer S.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2005234532014158396.post-26112975321158759942010-04-14T12:38:32.361-05:002010-04-14T12:38:32.361-05:00I also agree on the poor naming of the iPad.

He considered it a coup when he convinced me to upgrade my last cell phone (that was 2+ years old) to one that actually has a keyboard. Blame my lovely sister for making me text more, therefore making it necessary for me to have a keyboard on my phone. (Phones are for TALKING, for crying out loud!) Anyway, that's not what you asked... the only gadgets I would really love to have would be an espresso maker (the kind that you sit on top of your stove burner and percolate and costs like $20) and an immersion blender. Hey, you didn't say they had to be *high* tech toys. :-)Stephanie Bnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2005234532014158396.post-67926696022860873592010-04-14T09:34:35.029-05:002010-04-14T09:34:35.029-05:00Nice!

(But I think it is because he knows it would cut into his own playstation time so that is probably the reason for him.) I love things that make the kids use their own imagination and actually "play"! <br /><br />DVR is certainly on our list of things we can't live without. It is right up there with the invention of air conditioner. <br /><br />I am thinking about getting an iPhone in the next few months and that would be a HUGE step in my technology world. Heck, we are just now ordering a scanner to copy old pictures that aren't on the computer. It usually takes us a few years to take the plunge. :)<br /><br />I am so excited for you and your new adventure/business!!Tarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09092983312292350420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2005234532014158396.post-16661418280012422902010-04-14T07:45:34.769-05:002010-04-14T07:45:34.769-05:00Yes, yes, terrible name.

I haven't been banned yet, but I'm sure that time will come.<br /><br />On my wish list is an iPhone, which I will be getting this summer.

(I will refrain from making my off-color joke now...)<br /><br />Gadgets I want? My list does include an Apple product, but not the poorly-named one.
