These pictures never come out in the right order, do they? I´ve never really found out how to make these posts look more appealing, but I think that the beauty that these pictures portray should be enough to render
that fact unimportant. Children are so beautiful,
so I guess it´s needless to say that my own childen are the most beautiful of them all :)
They are actually known as "the dolls" at Eyrún´s leikskóli among some of the other mothers, referring to their perfect little faces :)
These are pictures from last month, we were disconnected from the rest of the world for several weeks so it was impossible to post anything, but finally I´m getting back on track. Things keep on changing, evolving, my children keep on learning new things. Eldar took a few steps today holding onto that plastic car Eyrún is sitting on, and has also learned how to push his head through our stairway railing and get it stuck there. He doesn´t seem to learn that he shouldn´t do it again and again. Eyrún has already become very much of a little jokster (sp?), talking about poop and saying funny words all day, other times showing her behind to the living room and laughing her head off. Luckily (and hopefully it stays that way) she only does this in her home. She got together with two of her cousins the other day, and they all bunched up in Eyrún´s bed together, saying funny things (to a three year old) and shrieking with laughter. Hilarious.
As you can see on the pictures, we´ve been having all kinds of weather. This sometimes seems just like Iceland. Two days ago we were out in the
garden in short sleeves, mowing our lawn. The next day it was snowing.
A cold wind is blowing all day, so hard sometimes you can hardly open the door.
And now our short vacation week is almost over, and it´s back to routine again, where every little moment is important for these little growing lives.
Hopefully I won´t take as long for the next batch of photos, I just hope people haven´t completely given up on our site. It´s heartwarming to hear from everyone, it´s brings you all so close :)

Ok, finally my computer allowed me to go about my business, how benevolent of him (her, it? which is it?). So here´s a new video of the both of them, and I´ll write as soon as they´re asleep (one of these days) with new news, like Eldar finally standing up by himself!! (with the help of a table, but I suppose that´s how we all begin...)
