Cafe Central - Again.

It's been a while. Last time was during the heat wave in July, when I had passed my due date and was hanging out in the air-conditioned cafe in order to not go crazy outside or at home. Ah, those crazy hot days seem so far away at the moment. Check out my "cake" - white chocolate mouse with raspberries. It was just as good as it looks!

Ice Skating with Penguins

These penguin ice-skating aids are just the cutest. From Wiener Eistraum in front of Rathaus.

Six Months

She is six months today! Weeeh. My six months of experience with the incredible world of motherhood tells me it's the most exciting, challenging, fun, rewarding and nerve-wracking thing ever. I am willing to do anything for this sweet little soul, and I suppose that's what motherhood is all about. ♥♥

Faces

Pictures from a Sunday stroll along the Danube canal. We were enjoying a little bit of sun, even though it was freeezing cold. Today is also sunny, but different from yesterday there's snow too. Booh! I want spring.

Rainbow

Do you see it?

Empty Bowls

So far the transition to porridge and mashed vegetables is going swell. A lot is ending up other places than the mouth, but she definitely seem to like it. We have started using baby sign language, so far just a few signs like eat, more, milk, which are put to use frequently (by us, obviously) during meal time. I hope we can stick to it. I was inspired by a friend of mine in LA, who was using it with her son, and it was incredible to see how he could communicate before he was able to speak. And if this can help her in our multi-linguistic environment (Danish, Icelandic, German) then it's even better.

Liebe für die Wände

The other day one of my Christmas presents arrived in the mail. Yay!! Three illustrations by Blanca Gomez. I have been dying to replace the old and gloomy painting in our living room with something brighter, and these illustrations will provide a much needed change. Me and Silja went to IKEA yesterday to buy frames, but the ones we brought back didn't fit quite right. Instead they went well with the prints from Studio Violet I bought a while back, which now look even better in a frame. Today I got other frames for the first three, and can't wait to drill some holes and put everything up!
