Gadgets, Gizmos, and a Gidget, too!


Happy belated 4th of July to all of my American readers! I hope every one's days have been spent well. New York has been blistering hot and this Latin mama has been melting! 

Aside from turning into a puddle every time go out (hehe) I have been super busy having changes done on my blog as well as going on a family trip to Philadelphia. I have also been kept busy by all the technology I have been learning and acquiring this summer. So much so, it has my head spinning a bit by all the mumbo jumbo jargon of codes, manuals, tutorials. 

I don't know if you know this but I am not a technological person. I am more comfortable with a movie or a good book and not html's and seo's and all that jazz. Thankfully I have been getting help and also thankfully a lot of it hasn't been as hard to figure out as I imagined. But there is defiantly a lot to learn. This summer is turning into a summer school of sorts. I'm learning a lot about blogging, photography, and other little gizmo's.

Let me start with saying that I now have four child. Say what? Omg? Huh? Oh yes its true. Okay, its not a human child but still, she is becoming a close member of our family already. I carry her with me almost everywhere I go since she was delivered to our house. Oh okay, I should just share a photo of her right? Her she is and her name is Gidget-small but mighty!

Ta-da! Isn't she adorable! hehe I know, I am being silly but really having my hands on a professional camera was never something I thought I would want to do. But I thought a lot about how much I enjoy taking photos of my family and of course for my blog and I made the decision to ask Santa for an early Christmas present and here she is!

From now on when you hear me speak of Gidget you will know exactly who she is unless I mention the show or film or something hehe

The camera came with a kit with loads of gadgets and gizmos and of course Gidget! I took her on our trip to PA which I will share later this week and although it is very different to handle than a point and shoot, I loved handling her. There is a lot to learn about angles and lighting and all that jazz so later this month I plan to take a course on photography. This is a hobby I have wanted to have for a long time. 
One day I would love to have a working vintage camera...dreamy!

For those of you looking for a professional camera-I highly recommend this one. Which leads me to another sort of addition to my life. For years now I have avoided the owning of what my husband and I call a "fancy" phone. You know, the phones everyone on the planet seems to have! 

You can get on the Internet and email people and take photos and all sorts of amazing things. I finally entered the 21st Century! Bunny now has a fancy phone! It's literally been just a few short days since I have had it and I find it more difficult to figure out than Gidget! hehe

I did figure out how to join Instagram and now you can see an closer look at Gidget and all sorts of vintagey life inspiration on here. Follow me and I would be happy to follow in return!

Gidget and a new phone and a new blog design. Bunny is on a roll me thinks hehe All this will take some getting used to but I am so thrilled to learn more or in other other words "feed my brain".

Here's to learning!

  2. Such fabulously fun, exciting new changes and additions to your life, dear Bunny! I'd had cell phones for ages, including (the phone before my current one) a Blackberry, but nothing compares to the iPhone for me, and I'm still a bit in shock more than six months later that Tony spoiled me rotten for Christmas with my first one last year. I love that you're on Instagram now, too, and look forward to seeing all of the cool snaps you'll share there - and here via Gidget - with us from here on out.

  3. I love the new blog look, Bunny! I am in the process of updating my blog at the moment too, so I know how exciting it is to give your virtual diary an overhaul! :)

    I also know how you feel about new technology, as I got my very first smart phone back in April. I had resisted getting one for so long, but finally decided to stop being a dinosaur, and now I honestly don't know how I went for so long without one!!!! One of the first things I did was sign up to Instagram hahah! :)

    I shall look forward to seeing your forthcoming photos taken with your new camera-baby!
