The movie Dead Poets Society was released for the first time ever on Blu-Ray last week and I can’t believe it’s been twenty-three years since it was originally released in theaters. That makes me feel very old! It has been digitally restored for this new edition but the story remains as powerful as ever. This [...]
Yesterday I had Real Steel Second Screen sneak peeks delivered to my inbox. I thought I’d post them because I talked about the movie and the app Monday but seeing the slideshows will give you a chance to see what the free app has to offer when you sync it up to the Blu-Ray edition [...]
I didn’t catch the movie Real Steel when it came through movie theaters last year. It snuck past us, movies in the theater are a rare treat at our house. I heard good things though and was excited to get a chance to preview the Blu-Ray + DVD edition that’s being released this week on [...]
By now you’ve probably seen the yellow DVDs and Blu-Rays in every store because The Help has been available since last Tuesday. Have you seen it yet? If you haven’t then you’re missing out on a wonderful and truly moving film. I read Kathryn Stockett’s bestselling book when it was first released and so it [...]
3-2-1 Blast off! Join Mickey and friends as they set off on an out of this world adventure. It’s Adventure Day at the Clubhouse and Professor von Drake has something special in store for Mickey and company – a treasure beyond the sky! “Meeska, Mooska, Mickey Mouse!” Of course, Mouseketools will be a must; but [...]
Walt Disney’s Prep and Landing came to DVD last week and we were lucky enough to get a review copy. It’s an understatement to say that my kids were excited. This has been our family’s favorite “new” Christmas special since it first aired in 2009. When the DVD arrived one of my children made the [...]
Did you know Pooh Bear is back? I missed the new movie in the theater but our family had a chance to preview the new DVD last week. All of my children were caught up in Pooh’s magic. We used to have Disney’s original Winnie the Pooh movie on VHS and I know that we [...]
Those of you who have been reading the site for awhile will probably remember that I talked about the Isotoner SmarTouch gloves last year. These gloves are incredible because they are warm AND they have conductive thread embroidered into the thumb and index fingers. This lets you operate your touchscreen while you are wearing the [...]
How many of you upgraded to the new iPhone 4S today? Or maybe you’re like me and you missed the shipping deadline but it will be coming in the next week? When we upgrade our phones our kids inherit the old phone and get an “iPod Touch” but there are many people that sell their [...]
Today I’m reviewing something a bit different. It’s not an app or an iPhone related product. Nope. Today I’m reviewing a website. The site is outfitYOURS.com and they offer Apple accessories. I had never heard of the site before but they contacted me and asked if I’d like to give their service a try. They [...]
WebMD Baby was released earlier this month and it is awesome! Seriously one of the best “baby” apps I’ve seen to date
iOS 5 Gets Its First Update Thanks to my husband Zack for getting this post out about the new iOS 5.1 release. I’ve yet to install the update…but I’ll be following his instructions below. Shortly after the iPhone 4S hit the market a bug was discovered that severely impacted battery life on those new devices. [...]
I review iPhone apps for moms. I have a decent grasp of techy things but the technical guts (for lack of a better word) of how the apps work are beyond me. So my reviews will be practical and purely subjective. Reviews for moms by a real life, actual mom. My kids will vouch for me.
