- As a busy working mother, the idea of keeping up with a Baby Book is daunting. I received a few beautiful baby books to document Liv’s every milestone. Her first birthday is almost 2 months away and those books may still be sealed in their packaging. Thankfully there is an alternative to the traditional baby book and that is something called, Qeepsake. Qeepsake texts you a question about your child. You text back your response, and an entry is added to your child’s private journal.
- When it came time to choose a monitor, I knew that I wanted something that would sync with my phone. I chose the Dropcam by Nest. No matter where I am in the world, I can spy on Liv while she is sleeping. I was in New York for work and with the touch of a button, I could see my sweet girl snoozing away.
I thought I took a lot of pictures of my dog, until I had a baby. The photo shoots are daily and each picture is more adorable than the one before it. In order to prepare for Liv’s first birthday, I wanted to make sure I had a monthly picture with a couple of her current interests. The app Baby Pics is my go to for cataloging those monthly milestones. 
4. Baby Center App is great resource for staying up to date with growth and developmental milestones. I love the fact that you get information personalized to you based on your child’s age. 
5. Etsy – this app is dangerous because you can find so many adorable things for your baby. I have splurged quite a bit on the amazing handmade clothing.
