QUICKED COOL: The Fabulous Fonicle

Ok- this one may be one of my most favorite "Quicked Cool's" thus far... The FONICLE.

What is that you ask?
Well, let me start by saying- I often hear folks talk about how Facebook is a stealer of your time. However, with Fonicle it can SAVE YOU SOOO MUCH TIME, and make you a rock star mom too! YES, it' true.

How you ask?
The handy app called Fonicle allow you to upload your ENTIRE Facebook existence and make it into a book!

I often joke with people that while having two children under the age of two in 2010... I don't remember much. And honestly, I don't. I don't know who had tubes, when or where and whose first word was what!?!

(Seriously- look at this picture: same hospital, same room- just 13 months later. If it weren't for the hat - how would you keep it all straight?!)

Its one of those things I used to make fun of my mother for, and yet now I know as a mother- YOU LOSE BRAIN CELLS... rapidly. But you know what- Facebook remembers. :)
I was also working from home at the time and often Facebook was my only connection to the adult world. So, needless to say my FB friends knew every of almost every move the kiddos made. Yes, it was inevitable.
However, recently when discussing with a friend (shout out to Change Maker Whitney Bishop!) how my children's baby books were yet to be done, she mentioned an app that will print your FB photos and statuses and make them into a book- EUREKA!!! It works!!!
Now if you would like all of your memories in beautiful color and with a hard cover... you can quickly rack up a tab over $400. (that was from 2005-2012) The paperback cover leaves much to be desired...but this will just have to be another Quicked Cozy project for later!

BUT- I was perfectly happy with black and white and paper back. (I mean you have the picture in color somewhere... you posted it!) The grand total= $85
Here is what she looks like inside:

Now- its not the most beautifully formatted, however for me - it means I have white space to add "the rest of the story..." for my children. You know- the FB inappropriate things that we dance around as not to humiliate our young children on SM. (sometimes ;)
Are there statuses that are completely uninteresting and unnecessary- of course! But there are also heart warming memories of my babies doing and saying funny things... Ahh! It covers everything from heading to the hospital, announcing the birth and the first full night of sleep that we all like to shout from the rooftops!!!

Talk about the instant gratification I love so much... BABY BOOKS COMPLETE!!!

Whoop whoop!! Hope you can check it off your list too. :)
