i heart my iphone

ok, so I got on the bandwagon. my old iPod had some serious issues so I returned it and with the money got myself an iphone. i’m in love with the thing. I'm quickly becoming more and more horrible about logistics because I tell myself I can figure everything out on the go with my new love….which is pretty much true….until I loose it or it falls out of my pocket and into the toilet. Then I’ll be toast.

For now, I’m just enjoying.

I think my favorite thing is that I can take pictures of what I’m doing with the kids and email them off in a blink to jeff or other’s who might be interested. And I love the crappy photo diary I’m creating….I love the freedom of being able to take a picture without the need to download and edit and make it perfect. It feels real, and it’s much easier!

Here are some of the things we’ve been up to lately. Emmeline had her first thrill on a swing and she was IN LOVE. And man, am I in love with this girl! We’ve been taking “mommy school” field trips to all kinds of places…..here we are at the science museum. Hazel got some awesome bug boxes from G and G Shumway for her birthday. Hazel and Charlie both know how to model it up when prompted. I love this about them. We went to the temple for a primary activity. Hazel hides away to her little window sill to work out words in her early reader books. I love it. Last Indian summer trip to the beach. How do kids still delight in that freezing water on cold days? They have way more guts than I do. Especially little Emmeline who kept wanting to go in further and further until I just had to strip her down….to her delight. an owl at the science museum. Here’s me and Hazel on a little mommy date to barnes and noble. my favorite fall activity: apple picking. again, some awesome poses at the children’s museum. How’s that for a boring post with grainy unedited pictures (and I have to say, some pretty horrendous ones of me).

but hey, it only took me 4 min to write.

and it’s all pretty true to my real life.

and i love it.
