Birth story (ok, novel)

I apologise for the absolutely obscene length of this. I tried editing it down, but once I get going it's really hard to shut me up. Also, it's been two months so I just need to post the damn thing already. Gjörið svo vel! I was due January 23rd. Several days on I was still twiddling my [...] Read more...

Grandma

My dear Grandma, Betty, passed away on Friday. She was very much loved by everyone who knew her, and she will be very greatly missed. Rest in peace, Grandma. Read more...

Apparently it's Konudagur today. Borgar got me red roses and cake. Not just any old cake either, but Cake of the Year. For those of you who don't read Icelandic, it's made of several layers: chocolate cake, nut-flavoured cake, chocolate-coffee mousse, then coated with a white chocolate glaze. I highly recommend it!

Still pregnant

It's my due date today! It's so weird. I've had this date, January 23, in my mind for so long and now it's finally here. :) I wish I could say the same thing for the baby, but she seems to be perfectly comfortable in there and not showing many signs of wanting to join [...] Read more...

Well you learn something new everyday...

Today I learned that some churches will not christen babies. They believe that that's a choice for an adult to make, so they won't do it until a person is old enough to decide for themselves. Instead they offer some kind of naming/presentation ceremony for the parents & congregation to welcome the baby. I think that's [...] Read more...
