Schönbrunn Park

We headed to the big park by Schönbrunn palace this past Sunday to enjoy the beautiful weather and a lunch in the shade. It turned out to be a bit too hot for Silja, so we headed home before the afternoon heat really kicked in.

Holding Hands

Smile...!

Hardly out of the belly we have been required to start the process of applying for Silja's passports. Now, to get a (valid) passport photo of a 2-3 week old infant is NOT an easy task. This week I have been going to the photographer several times, but by the time I reached the place Silja was sound asleep in the stroller, and I couldn't bare to wake her up for a stupid photo. We finally managed to get there yesterday with an awake yet sleepy baby, and tried our best to have her look into the camera after instructions from the photographer. (How the heck do you do that?) The result didn't fully match the requirements of the standard passport photo, but her passport applications were accepted nevertheless.

Grandparents

Even though we live far away from our families both morfar (maternal grandpa) and amma (paternal grandma) have stopped by Vienna to meet Silja, and it has been great to share these early moments of parenthood with our own parents. Morfar and Anni came by the hospital and brought along lots of sweet presents from Denmark and amma stayed for a week and poured out of that amma-love, which I'm sure the little lady liked a lot.

Thanks for all the comments here, through email and facebook. It's truly very appreciated! I'll be back soon, spamming you with lots of pictures.
