Sunday funday with the kids and trying to find new outfit for the christening party

Good afternoon!

How are you all? I'm good, had a relatively good nights sleep and therefore the day's looking bright :) Even though it's not that bright what comes to the weather - it's not sunny at all. Maybe our summer continues again next week?

My parents came over to our house yesterday and I have to say it felt like a day off; I only had one child, the baby, to take care off as L was playing with my dad / his grandpa. What a relaxing afternoon we had! I even had the time to drink my coffee out on the terrace without any interruptions - perfect. That is all I need every now and then. And I do enjoy to spend time with my son but sometimes mommy just needs a few minutes to herself and then feels so much better :) Yes, that's what sleep deprivation does to you. I will talk about that some other time although I do feel okay most of the time - I am not that tired as some mothers are. Lucky me.

I did mention on my yesterday's post that my baby's christening party is on it's way next month. I did buy a dress for the party but I'm not totally happy with it so maybe I should try to find something online instead? Bestseller has maternity clothes and with the sales going on, I think I should check their site. I want something white to wear and of course, something that I can nurse in so I needs to be maternity clothes. I kind of like jumpsuits and saw one that Mango brand had  (white on top, black on the bottom) but for some reason I just can't find it anymore. Anyway, I'll keep looking. Stockmann has some great sales going on too and you can order online too so that works. At least I have options :)

Have a good sunday, everyone!

Pregnancy week 35: maternity leave just began

Image
Good morning, everyone! What a beautiful morning it is! It's nice and sunny here in Helsinki - can't believe this is the last week we'll live in this house. We're moving a week from tomorrow, how exciting! My maternity leave also just started and now I'm going on week 35 on my pregnancy. This week I'll have a doctor's appointment - last one before labor, yikes!! It all seems more and more real now, and it's very exciting (and scary, too, in someway) to realize our baby can be here any time now. I'm ready - as long as our moving process is near the end after next week ;) Easywalker Duo Now I have time to think (again) about the stroller. Can't decide what to do: I'm leaning towards the double stroller, maybe a Mountain Buggy Duet, but that's still a bit too expensive for me since I'm not sure how long I'd be using it. 700€ for a used one is a bit on the expensive side if you ask me, and that's what they've been asking

Spring is on its way!

 Hey there! Time sure flies as I realized it's been a while since I wrote here last time which was in december ;) Oh well, after all the fluseason and darkseason here up north, I feel like I'm finally starting to feel more energetic. Spring is on its way! I started on a new job last october and I just that was more than 4 months ago :) This new job is totally different compared to my old job so there's been a lot of studying - after work as well but absolutely at work. All the programs and just the culture; the way people act at work and what approriate and what's not requires some learning. I've also taken courses and actually got my IPMA-C program management certification the other day. Very rewarding to see the results! So far I'm liking this job a lot and mostly I think it's because I don't know anything about it ;) No I mean, this learning new stuff -phase is great. Me like it a lot :) Other than that, we're still separated - my spouse and I tha

Baby's due date, thinking about new baby gear and other stuff

Image
Good morning! Baby's due date is here - and he's almost 4 weeks old :) Things are going well, although little L got really sick on wednesday nite and we had a few rough nites because of that. I'm fine with my 3 hour sleep but when I don't get that, I'm exhausted. I mean, baby sleeps 3 hrs in a row which is just fine, then eats and sleeps again but big brother kept waking up every hour. He had ear infection (again) and high fewer. He seems better today so let's keep our fingers crossed. He hasn't eaten anything for days but finally had breakfast this morning so it looks promising. I hate when my babies are sick :( Baby gear Yes, my favorite topic :) Here's a picture of my stroller, Easywalker Duo, which I bought as a used one, and I just love them :) Very sturdy, yet not too heavy to push even with two kids, the baby basket is big enough and at least my baby sleeps there almost too well. And all that for 220€ so I can't complain! My bag hangs in
