5 tech picks you won't want to miss this week
Back away from the leftover Three Musketeers and distract yourself with these fabulous Cool Mom Tech picks instead. Here are 5 of our favorite of the past week, in case you missed them.

1. The original angry bird-- Mo Willems' Pigeon-- now has an amazing and lovable app to help give kids the tools and motivation to write and illustrate their own stories.

2. Need 10 excuses to grab a new iPhone 4S? Honey, we're here for you.
3. This cute little app for kids doesn't need a lot of bells and whistles. After all, it has a dancing bear.
4. If you've got AT&T U-verse, you can say goodbye to TV cables and take your screen time anywhere in the house, thanks to this smart tech solution.
5. First-time moms will adore this new app that tracks pregnancy with a collection of helpful details, tools, and photos. Second (or more!) time moms would probably just prefer a nap.
