Hey everyone! It's been a while since I wrote last time but you know - life's hectic with two kids :) It's midsummer here in Finland and it was pouring just an hour ago! And now it's sunny again. Weird weather, I say. As always, I'm thinking about our summer vacation and still debating on which stroller we're taking with us. As for now, there's a really good deal going on at Pinkorblue meaning they have a 7% discount code on already discounted products. It's not valid for every single product (check out the link) but for the most part it's a great one. For example, they have Baby jogger city tour stroller (similar in size with Babyzen yoyo or Mountain Buggy Nano) for 295€ (certain colours) plus you'll get that 7% off. Great deal, I think! Okay, once I get in to writing mode, my youngest son - who by the way turned 1 year old - needs me asap. So I got to go. Thank god I have a massage tonight cause my poor back is hurting again - even thoug...

You know me and my never ending journey to find that perfect, smaller than smallest, travel stroller. I've tried a few so I'm kinda hesitating on ordering a new one so my journey continues. The bottom line is that I'm not gonna spend more than 300€ for this stroller so that kinda limits my search - all the best ones do cost more than that. Then I found this one, Carena Kobbe Lux travel stroller, as I went through the selection of Lekmer. This one, a lux one (they do have a cheaper basic one but I like this colour better) has: - a handle bar for the kid, - a faux leather handle bar for the one pushing the stroller, - it doesn't weigh a lot (6,9 kg), - it's small in size (as folded) 52,5 x 45,5 x 23,5 cm (you can basically take this in the airplane with you, as handluggage that is) - a child up to 18kg is able to use it (compared to most travel strollers with a weigh limit of 15 kg) - it's handle-bar is 104 cm (compared to Mountain buggy nano  which is 98c...

We've finally agreed on our summer vacation and our destination will be Sunny Beach in Bulgaria :) We really went through all the options out there but realized we don't anything else than a good hotel (a decent one is not an option with 2 kids) that has activities for kids and adults too, walking distance from the beach, a mall and sun. Not too much sun, of course even though it might get super warm here too. And we're sorta on a budget this summer since I'm not working currently so saving money on something is a big bonus. The hotels we looked for, do need to have a playground for kids, restaurant(s) and they do need to offer a shuttle service to/from the airport. We also need a bigger hotelroom so the kids have enough room to play and a small kitchen area to prepare breakfast and snacks for the kids if they need. A microwave is a must since I need to warm the milk for my baby and prepare morning and evening porridge for him as well. We also decided we're gonna...

Good morning! Summer is finally here, or at least june is. We still had some rain last week and are supposed to have it today too, but tomorrow should be better what comes to weather. I still have my hopes that summer and warm weather will get here too! Talk about summer and upcoming trips too, I'm in a hopeless journey of finding one more new umbrella/small travel stroller. We do have a travel stroller (Britax b agile) that we bought in 2014 and it still functions quite well after all our trips. But it wont seat two kids, that's for sure so on our last trip to Crete we actually had our double stroller, Phil and Teds Navigator, with us. Ok, it was a good idea to have it with us because it's sorta like a travel stroller for two kids and we do need it because our toddler still sleeps during the day and a stroller works just fine for that. Actually, they both take their nap at the same time so it was perfect in that trip. But then again, this stroller is kinda heavy and bi...
