Life with two kids is never dull. I am frequently tired and even more frequently frustrated. Two is a hard age to parent, isn’t it? I forget if it was this hard with my daughter. Boys are just plain different. But, I wouldn’t have it any other way.
No matter where I am, I always have my essentials – wipes, extra pull-up diaper, wallet, lip gloss, and a great smart phone. Memories are always being made and I love the ability to document it all – the good, the bad and gthe ugly. And believe me sometimes it is ugly. (I won’t scare you with pictures.) And a phone with Unlimited Talk Text and Data/Web? Well, that just makes my life a whole lot easier!
This week my son used his finger paints for the first time. These are the kind of memories, that I like to document and remember for the future. He has so much fun making a mess with his paints. {I am just thankful for Color Wonder capability!} Snapping photos with my DSLR camera isn’t always convenient, but my Alcatel Fierce 2 has an awesome camera that takes great photos.

The ability to document all the memories on my phone with a few simple apps and a great data plan? Well, as a mom to two young kids, that has now become essential. My phone is my new scrapbook.
Here are the three apps that I cannot live without right now, at this stage in my parenting life.
- Evernote

I use Evernote to write down all my memories and occasionally I add a photo in this app. I use Instagram to edit, upload and share picture memories. I connect Instagram to Facebook so I can share these great memories with my entire extended family and friends. Facebook also allows me to write updates on what we are doing and I can go back and easily look at it all.
Do you have a must have app that you are using right now?
In case any of you are interested, I purchased the Alcatel Fierce 2 at my local Walmart. It is a great phone to use with the Walmart Family Mobile Plan. The 4G LTE coverage and low cost unlimited plan is amazing. Truly.
Walmart Family Mobile service is $29.88/month(for the first line) Unlimited Talk, Text & Data service plan which includes up to 500MB of 4G LTE data.

My favorite app is actually a mileage tracker It tracks mileage for business, and gives me a comprehensive report – no more writing down start/finish mileage in a ledger!
My husband needs that one, Andrew. Very badly. What’s it called?
I’ll have to check out Evernote app – have not heard of that one. the other two you suggested – oh yes, gotta have those. About memories – boy do I have so many!!
sounds like a good one to have. i don’t use many picture apps
I think the more memories you can make with your kids the better! They LOVE working with their parents and I LOVE doing stuff with my kids! I take pictures all the time to remember it all.
I’m the same way. I am thankful to have a phone with me at all times to store all these great memories we’re making!
I need to check out Evernote! I am always looking for good apps.
