Remember my new iPhone? Well, I love it. Yes, I can talk to Siri (which my or may not be the subject of a Top Ten post soon. She is quite entertaining.) and I can actually get online and answer email while sitting somewhere boring. I’m kinda in love with it.
But the main thing that has changed since my iPhone is that it has given me a new Mommy Blog. What?! A new blog? Well, kinda. I have fallen in love with Instagram. I know you’ve seen it before. It’s the photo sharing site where you can kinda retro-fy your photos. And I have taken to uploading pics of my adorable kids for the world to see.
And by world I mean, the 179 people that follow me. Instagram is quiet, pretty and simple. It’s like a little secret place on my phone. It’s my new crush. (It’s actually not that quiet–they’ve grown from 1 million to 15 million users in one year! Isn’t that amazing?!)
So, in case you’re not on Instagram, here’s a few of my faves from the last, oh, 7 days…
1. Asa playing with a belt. On Christmas. Yes, it’s around his neck.
2. Asa playing with is favorite Christmas present: a viking costume. (Which also may be the subject of a Top Ten list!)
3. Day after Christmas (aka All Day Pajama Day)
4. Cute Lalaloopsy dolls. Another Christmas present.
5. Asa playing at Juliet’s Doctor birthday party.
6. Sleeping in the carseat. After the Doctor birthday party.
7. Alabama playpen. (Please laugh at that. I love it.)
8. My pretty Lyddie.
9. Papa teaching Lydia to play solitaire. On the iPad.
10. Lydia’s final fitting for her Laura Ingalls dress. Which is for her Little House on the Prairie Party. Which is on Saturday! (Aaaaaack! I have so much to do!!)
So. Do you instagram? If you don’t, don’t you want to now? And if you’re wondering, my favorite filter is Earlybird. I’m a sucker for rounded corners.

LOVE the “Alabama” Playpen. I had a great 10’x10′ playpen for my kids for 4 years. Until we put stairs off the deck 😉
I just downloaded Instagram in the last couple of weeks, and I’m totally in love with it, too. 🙂
I wish they had Instagram for androids. They have similar apps, but not as great as Instagram.
I {heart} Instagram! It’s challenging to find new things to take pictures of when I don’t publish pictures of me or my daughter but I love taking photos of scenery and just about anything looks cool with a fun filter! Great pictures :).
I had to go find you on there and follow you. 🙂
I follow you on Instagram right now, I’m still kind of new to it, but I love it so far! And your pics are always super cute! ^.^
My name on Instagram is ICStarzz if anyone wants to follow me. But I usually use those photos for a wordless wednesday, too!
^.^
Have a great Tuesday!
Thanks for hosting! It’s Salad Week at The Local Cook.
Love your instangrams.. makes me so want to get and Iphone so I can use the apps.. am still using an ancient nokia.
Haha! I had to chuckle at your Alabama Playpen. Here I thought we Missourians were the only ones that did that! 🙂
I love Instagram! I’m pretty awful at capturing pictures, BUT, with Instagram I’m actually more likely to take a picture since I already have my camera/phone on me.
And totally laughed at the “Alabama playpen”!
I am also so in love with Instagram! I wrote a post about it not long ago. 🙂 Happy New Year!!
Love the picture of Asa wearing the glasses…so cute!
Oh Amanda, these photos are adorable. Especially love the Dr Birthday party…those glasses !!!
Love, love, love my Instagram! Such sweet pics you have here. 🙂
A viking costume?! Love it!

Aw, this was a really nice post. In idea I would like to put in writing like this additionally – taking time and actual effort to make a very good article… but what can I say… I procrastinate alot and by no means seem to get something done.
I used to be seeking for this great sharing admin a lot thanks and have good blogging bye

I almost never create responses, but i did some searching and wound up here Instagram Mommy Blog: Top Ten Tuesday | ohamanda.com. And I actually do have a couple of questions for you if it’s allright. Could it be just me or does it appear like some of these remarks look like they are coming from brain dead people? 😛 And, if you are posting on additional online social sites, I’d like to follow everything new you have to post. Could you make a list of all of all your social pages like your twitter feed, Facebook page or linkedin profile?
Great Post! Glad I found your blog! Will be back for more! Thanks

very best inn its field. Amazijg blog!
