Wrap-ified
Imported ‘specialty-stuff’ tends to be considerably more expensive in Iceland than in the UK and US, so I got my dad to bring over a few things from the UK to save us a little bit of money. One of them was a proper ‘Moby Wrap‘ (burðarsjal) which is basically just a really long piece of stretchy cottony fabric. So far the little miss seems to like it: she’s fallen asleep within minutes all three times that we’ve used it!
Finnur trying out the Moby Wrap. Ms. Bambino was asleep in seconds! We tucked her head in a little later.
Holla came by for a lunchtime visit with her two younger ones, and in a fit of productivity, I made American pancakes! Here the older kids have gotten a hold of some of my fancy dark chocolate (aka my psych-and-caffeine-meds), and are helping themselves to a piece or two.
I realized that I haven’t seen Holla’s youngest since before Christmas! And she’s now HUUUUGE (and almost 1 years old!)!!

Now all in focus… 🙂
The ‘Big Adventure’ of the day was wrapping the wee-est one up in the wrap and walking up the street with the kids to the ‘other’ playground. (See Buddha shrine up on the hill for reference.)
All wrapped up on my chest with her ‘Dragon-hat’.
