My brother Pétur and his fiance, Signý, very kindly invited us to see Peter and the Wolf, as performed by the Icelandic Symphony Orchestra and a puppeteer in Harpa. I was too wrapped up in the show to record a video until the very end. I tried to catch the kids on video, but failedRead more
Saw the midwife this morning. Nothing much to report except that she did find a heartbeat that most certainly isn’t mine, so that’s a good thing. My blood pressure reading wasn’t terrible either (115/87, although I’m not sure I buy the top number) considering that my insides were feeling like I was about to goRead more
So it’s raining again today, which is fine by me. But it did put a little damper on the whole ‘let’s bike to the swimming pool’-mood, so instead I pulled forth… I may have been secretly jazzed that I can still squat for a good while, probably thanks to all that prenatal yoga I didRead more
Finnur and I had a very relaxing Sunday, which translates into us being the very laziest and worst parents ever. Anna was clever enough to disappear out the door at 11 am to a neighborhood friend of hers, and we only saw short glimpses of her until we summoned her home at 5 pm. BjarkiRead more
A couple of days ago Finnur caught the nasty cold bug that’s now claimed all of us sequentially and he’s looking pretty useless. I’m hoping he shakes it though because the weather service claims tomorrow might be the last dry day for a while, and we have a lot of fencing that still needs staining.Read more
Mindful of Sarah’s energy comment from yesterday, and her spot on link, I decided to only do a little bit today. Because I’m a princess with a sugar daddy, and can get away with it. 🙂 That little bit consisted of printing out the labels I made the other day, sticking them on the IkeaRead more
I claimed victory over the fatigue a wee bit early. I’ve been incredibly blah all day, and basically spent the day reading, and napping. Here’s hoping tomorrow brings a more industrious me!Read more
In spite of a rotten cold, which has left me voiceless, full of snot, and coughing every now and again since Friday, I feel like I’m waking up again from the pregnancy-slumber. Finally! (Oh, and I’m definitely on the mend now, feeling much better today!) Yesterday I commandeered the car, and then visited so manyRead more
[Written on 11 September 2012] This is just to document that Bjarki has learnt how to jump from a moving swing. He’s been able to swing on his own for about a year now, but today marked the big achievement of letting go while moving! He did really well, except for this one time… happilyRead more
[Written on 11 Sept 2012] Anna’s school went in sesson on 22 August this year. Students from grades 2 through 4 were summoned to school, students were paired with teachers, and then each class went to their homeroom.Read more
