Technology is great for keeping in touch with distant family, but it's also quite great for keeping in touch with Blake when one of us is traveling, like I am for work. It's usually me doing the traveling, but either way, we still find time to Skype together every night. We talk, catch up on our days, and do our night time prayer and scriptures routine.
It's also amusing to mess with Malcolm. Most of the time he couldn't care less, but sometimes it seems that he can hear me, but he can't see me, and that's entertaining. It's also not uncommon for him to suddenly pounce on Blake, which is always funny.
Of course, FaceTime is also particularly helpful for getting to see the new nephew. I called my dad recently and Gabriel "answered." He's getting his first tooth, so he's a pretty drooly little monster. I was smiling at and chatting with him when his mom snapped it from this perspective.
Hooray for videophones!

Iddo currently thinks we have to Skype with people during dinner and that her immediate family isn't enough dinner conversation for her. We almost Skyped you tonight when we were having a hard time getting a hold of grandmas. We are cousins after all.
I'm way late in reading/publishing this comment, but I would be happy to Skype with my cousins during dinner sometimes. :)
