Here are the photos of the first 2 weeks of Markus' life - including hospital stay, first weeks at home and lots of visitors. Oh, and first bath :-) Markus' First Fortnight Oh, and the winner of the "guess the sex, weight and length of my baby" competition, was.... beebarf and my Zurich friend Kerry, although to be fair, no one got it exactly right! Markus is a boy adn weighed in at...

I've not done a meme in ages... so here goes. Lots of pillows or just one? Two... Zac made me throw away my pillow of rocks (It had chunks of foam in and I'd had it like forever) and now the cheap replacements that we bought are very flat and not so comfy. What kind of books do you read? Geeky Science books, Chick Lit, (especially Emily Barr and Adele Parks), Fantasy (especially Trudi Canavan...

I would really like to meet some new people on Livejournal, so is there anyone you would recommend to me as a new LJ friend?

Thank you all so much for the lovely surprise! You really shouldn't have - but I'm going to have so much fun planning how to spend the vouchers! I will post the patterns for the mitts as soon as I've written them out. And my brain is thinking of how to convert them to brioche stitch too... LOL
