Hey everyone! Hope y'all been healthy and able to avoid this horrific fluseason. We haven't and so far, in the past 3 weeks, both boys have had ear infections, fever and flu. Not to mention, that requires 24/7 care for them both (goodbye goodnight's sleep!) Luckily, this antibiotics we got for my older son last night seems like it's working already. Yay! And now my husband is sick..with the worst of them all: the mamflu :D No really, hope it goes away really fast. So this going back to work from maternity leave -thing hasn't quite worked out that well for our family. I know, going back is always hard and I have to blame myself for bringing all the stress back home. That's never a good combo: mother, who's never at home anymore and when she is, she's so stressed out :( Feel bad for my kids but I got a feeling this will get better soon as springtime gets closer. Soon we'll all be healthy again! And besides all that, kids really seem to like their...

Hello, everyone! Weeks are going so fast it's almost impossible to remember post anything but here I am :) This week has been the worst in a while: my both kids got sick last week, and that required me to stay at home with one of them. Of course that's what I do but I just hate calling in sick after being at work for less than 2 weeks :) But it is what it is and luckily grandparents came in to help us - yay for them :) So after this horrible week I decided I'm in for a treat. Clothes, that is :) Not for me, though, but for my kids. Reima has the best quality, durable clothes for kids and they even have sales right now so that would be the perfect time for shopping. All of a sudden my older son, who turns 4 in 1 month, has out-grown of all of his outerwear (yes, I spot ankles :D) and my youngest son just isn't a baby anymore :( I mean really, after he started at daycare he's grown so much and is just taller. So if you need new clothes, check it out. I usually ta...

Hey everyone! It's been a crazy month so far: I returned back to work from my maternity leave and my youngest son (aka 'the baby') started at daycare - full time. I gotta say, things are slowly getting better and we're all adjusting to this change but it surely has had an impact on all of us. Boys are very tired at night after daycare and so am I. I'm used to spending my days outdoors, not indoors, and that makes me tired! I mean, I pretty much do the same stuff at the same project as a project manager but things have gone forward so I do need to take the time and learn new stuff. But all in all, things are going well :) What actually surpised me was that how easily (and fast!) days would go. My husband takes the kids to daycare in the morning and I get to leave for work at 7 am so I'm there early and therefore get to leave early in order to pick up my kids early. So days go really fast, not to mention I have meetings 90% of my worktime. I only work 4 days a...
