iphone--the downfall of my blogging

This was supposed to go at the end of the post...but it's a self-portrait by Josie.  Cracks me up.I love my iphone.  LOVE.  However, the apps for blogger leave much to be desired.  The one app I have found is free for just doing text, but if you want to include photos, you have to pay.  I'd be ready to pony up, but the reviews uniformly pan the app specifically in the picture upload area.  So, now I have all these photos on my phone with no way to get them to blogger aside from downloading them to my computer. 

This is the long-winded way of explaining why I haven't gotten pictures up as frequently.  The first weekend in May we had near 90 degree weather and broke out the pool.  I got some great shots on my phone, where they continue to reside. 


Eddie has been building elaborate train layouts and 30 minutes after you make him put one away on account of it taking up most of the 15x18 foot family room, he builds a new one, with bridges and hills.  He then likes us all to watch a single self-propelled engine run the track.  I could have a picture/day of each new track...

The other reason I haven't written as much is that aside from a less than 24 hour trip that involved a car instead of a plane, Den has not been on a work trip since early February.  That is the longest he has been home in the 12 years I have known him.  He didn't stick around that long when the kids were born.  Tthe kids fell right back into routine and talked by phone with him tonight, fighting over who got to hang the phone up.  The kids enjoy the trips to the airport when we can either see him off or welcome him home.

Is there more than one pic to this post (happy J's nose is more or less clean)? I can only get one to load from my in-flight Internet (IE and Firefox). Den
