... and time again for weighting and measuring our little lady.
On monday 20th we went to the clinic and had a little check. For statistics, here are the newest numbers:
weight: 7,110 kg
length: 66,5 cm
She's a strong, heavy and tall girl!
Yesterday, school started again for Jóhanna, and Verónika is already attending kindergarden since monday. Now I have a bit peace during the day (until I have to fetch the girls from school), and will hopefully be able to create a "summer's ending" post soon with new pictures about what we did during the holidays.

2nd tooth approaching!
Yesterday Júlíana's second tooth broke through. And therefor she's chewing on everything she can reach. For better luck the homeopath's remedies (chamomilla) worked well, so that she slept nicely the last nights and seems cheerful again today. Picture coming soon.

Breakthrough!
The latest news about Júlíana:
Now we know why she is whining a lot and the last night was a nightmare. Today she's accurately 4 months and one week old - it's unbelievable but true: her first tooth is appearing! We can't see it yet but one can feel those little edges, that bored through the gum. Time of teethless smiles soon over...

Harry Potter No. 7 arrived today...
... and I'll be reading every spare minute the next days! So excited when I went to the customs and fetched my packet from a friend in the US! My post with new photos has to wait, sorry!
So:

Schwimmbad
Gestern waren wir zum 2. Mal mit Júlíana im Schwimmbad. Wirklich unglaublich, wie brav sie immer in der Dusche ist - Verónika hat immer das ganze Schwimmbad zusammen gebrüllt! Jetzt merkt man auch, dass sie Spaß am Plantschen hat; sie rudert mit den Armen und strampelt und versucht ständig, das Wasser in die Hand zu nehmen oder in den Mund zu stecken. Dann ist sie jedes Mal sehr entsetzt, wenn sie Wasser in den Mund oder Nase bekommt.
Hinterher gehen wir wie immer in die Sauna zum Aufwärmen, was ihr auch gefällt. Vor allem, wenn andere Leute auch da sind. Sie wirkt sehr kontaktfreudig und an ihrer Umwelt interessiert, guckt immer ganz intelligent und mir scheint, dass sie wirklich versucht, sich verständlich zu machen. Ganz witzig, wie sie dann guckt... Ach ich bin so begeistert von meinem kleinen Mädchen!

another book
During the last two weeks I had a lot of time reading while hugging Júlíana on my shoulders and walking up and down our nursery room.
I'd really like to recommend you another book I've been finishing yesterday night:
Tom Egeland, original title "Sirkelens ende" (IS: Við enda hringsins, DE: Frevel, not available in english up to now).
An archaeologist, Björn Beltö is at an excavation site as an observer from Oslo university, when the team discovers a golden shrine in an old monastery in Norway. The professor leading the excavation tries to take the shrine out of the country, but Björn manages to steal it back and hide it. He is courious what the shrine contains, and tries to find some answers, while a bunch of people are after him. Very funny dialogues an an exciting hide and seek game.
The book is said to be a nordic version of the "Da Vinci Code" (Dan Brown), but was published a few years earlier.

Jag rekommenderar...
The other day I finished reading a very funny book, I really recommend you to read:
"Populärmusik från Vittula" is the name of the original title and is written by the swedish author Mikael Niemi, from Norrbotten, at the border to Finnland.
He describes his childhood in the sixties, in a corner of Sweden, where Tornedalsfinnish is spoken and daily life and customs resemble to those I remember when I lived in Finnland.
Extremely funny and well written!
Titles in other languages:
IS: Rokkað í Vittula
DE: Populärmusik aus Vittula
EN: Popular Music From Vittula
