Find Your Voice: Week 2

Part of the lesson was to give a complex answer to a simple question about ourselves.

Location: Lubbock, Texas

I moved from San Angelo to Lubbock on a crazy whim. I was feeling stifled and needed to run away somewhere fast. I moved in with my boyfriend (now husband), his brother, and another friend who were all musicians. They all toured a lot with their bands, and I would feel the itch to get away and meet up with them. I ended up seeing lots of new places throughout the country and meeting lots of rad people. It was an experience of a lifetime.

Here I am in a coffee shop in San Francisco. It was a freeing experience after being in a really unhappy relationship for 7 years.

Age: 30

I am 30 years old, but I look like a teenager. Looking young has its perks, but most of the time its a hassle. When I was pregnant, I looked "16 and pregnant" and got lots of nasty looks. I also got carded to buy a Justin Timberlake cd.

Jubitron the Girl Robot, A Review

The first thing I did when I got my iPad mini, was look for some cute apps for Amelia. Jubitron the Girl Robot is the first one I found, and Amelia loves it! For .99 it has been a huge help at bedtime calming down my cranky little one.





The graphics are cute and interactive. The music is great! Amelia has been digging this app since she was 3 months old, and I can't wait for her to learn how to read so she can read the story to me. There is a 'read to me' option that has the cutest British narrator.









This is Amelia's favorite page, because she can touch the head and make the lightbulb pop out! Again, the music really makes it!













I've been recommending this app to all my friends with children. I hope they make more stories of Jubitron and the gang soon!

You can get your very own copy at the Apple App Store.

The opinions here are my own, and I was not paid to do this review. I just thought this app/story was cute and rad and wanted to share.

Do you have any children's apps you would recommend? Leave a comment, I'd like to check them out!
