Winter vacation is on its way, and in most cities here in Finland it usually starts from week 8. If you still don't have any plans for that week and your kids are out of school/day care that week (like us), here's a rather cheap alternative for that 'what to do' -question: a holiday for a family (2 adults and 1-2 kids) in  Finland in Taikatalvi . The staff speaks english so in case you want to visit Muumimaailma next summer, this is something I'd highly recommend for you :) This works only in Finland (obviously, it is in Finland ;)) but this would be super-fun for everyone travelling to Finland to see the Moominworld - a definite adventure for both kids and adults. Here's the official text with rules etc. in Finnish borrowed from Offerilla's site which is the organization that sells this deal: "TARJOUS Muumimaailman Taikatalvi -perhelippu (2 aikuista ja 1-2 lasta), majoitus ja aamiainen 139€ EHDOT Lahjakortti on voimassa 18.2.2017-26.2.2017

Good morning! It's cold outside, and I get to stay inside because my husband took our toddler to day care - priceless!! I'm telling, these early mornings with two kids are just overwhelming every now and then so I really don't mind when hubby suggests something like this :) A while ago I sold our P&T verve double stroller. Just because I just didn't like it that much: even though it's bigger than sport or explorer from the same brand, I didn't like how my baby was sleeping 'on the ground' and with all the winter clothes it was getting harder to putting him there. You know, the underseat for sibbling. Just not my thing, so it had to go but now we're without a double stroller. Yikes! I even thought about buying a Bugaboo donkey duo (again!) but no - I won't do it. There's just not enough use for the price, no no no. I have pic's of my P&T (and Bugaboo as well) on my Insta if you're interested seeing them. So instead of put

Good evening! It's been a while since I wrote last time and that's because I've been sick. And my toddler as well so it's been sorta long week :) just the flu but boy it makes everything harder. Glad we're finally feeling better and had a really fun sunday today together - all family - at a fair. It was about travelling and we wanted some ideas for our yearly family trip. Maybe spain but where to? That's half the fun - planning the trip, that is. And you know, after a long week like this it was just perfect. Spending time with my fam ❤ which ever trip we choose, I'll write about it later. Let's just say I'm glad we had such a good day. It hasn't been the easiest for us and now I know why so many people say dont divorce when your kids are under the age of 3. Let's just say sleep deprivation has gotten me and we've duscussed that lately. Just because life can be very hectic with two little ones but nothing too serious. That's why I'

Hello everyone! Finally, our toddler sleeps in his own bed in his own room :D First night he woke up at 2 am and was crying for daddy but soon fell asleep again, and last night he slept through all night. Yay! I asked him last night where does he wanna sleep, and he said 'in my big boys bed :)'  He just needs a zillion different bed-time stories and a 'story massage' (telling a story and 'writing'/massaging it to his back - it works! Although he still doesn't go to bed until 10 pm but hey - one thing at a time. Family bed was getting a bit too narrow for us all so it's definitely time to have everyone sleeping in their own beds. Except for me and my baby - we sleep right next to each other because it's just easier with those nightly feedings so I don't have to get up. Good sleep is priceless! This weekend our toddler is going to his grandparents house for a sleepover. We definitely get to sleep in and my husband has more time to study. Besid

Hey everyone! Wow, it's been a while since I wrote last time. No, I didn't have a huge new years party ;) Instead, I've just been so busy with my little ones. My older son had a 2 week xmas break from his day care center and boy - it is work to entertain a toddler, especially if he's used to having different activities every day :) No, going to the park isn't enough and to be honest, we didn't get out of the house for few days because of those few horrible cold days. I mean, -20 degrees outside..not fun at all. Anyway, we did it and now my toddler is back at day care - half day until march and this works just fine. So I'm glad we're back to our normal routine: waking up early in the morning, having lunch on time, playing outside several times a day, seeing (toddler)friends etc. Routine helps to get through the day, I'll say :) Usually my baby, now 6 months already, sleeps really really well. I mean, 3-4 hrs in a row and that's just fine with
