About

This is a blog about me and my family living in Espoo, Finland. Our family consists of two adults, 5 and 3 year old boys, and a baby boy (born 2/2019). Overall, this blog is mainly about our daily life with ups and downs, and sharing all those experiences with you.

I have to add that even though my blog has some ad's and I do like baby-gear and nice things in my house, as a person I'm down-to-earth and do enjoy recycling. So this blog wont only be about luxury items, but everything in between. All the ad's are only suggestions. I do have to say I use affiliate links so when buying things through my site I earn a little bit and that helps my growing family. I'm also a big fan of recycling and that's why I always look for new items as used ones. Not only for saving the money but because I think it's a good idea to buy the stuff as a used one you only use for such a short time. And usually that is baby gear.

I also read many blogs on my sparetime - both finnish and english dealing with things mentioned above - and if I find something great, I will link it here too. I am open to all kinds of comments so please don't hesitate sharing them with me :) You can leave your comments in english or finnish - I'll translate them to english if needed. Since I'm not a native english-speaker there might (read: will) be some errors in grammar. Sorry about that! I actually used to live in California, USA for some years when I worked as an au pair and studied in the USA. That's why I want to keep this blog in english language so my US friends can also keep track of my life.
All in all, I'm a 40+ mother, married, educated and this blog gives me lots of joy. It's been on my mind for some years to write about my thoughts and share things that interest me & keep people close to even closer. And getting new friends, too :)

I truly hope you enjoy this blog!

Down duvets on sale at Hemtex!

 Hey everyone! It's been a long time since I've posted anything but so much has happened: I switched to a new job, spent summer with my kids, got divorced and catch covid-19. Yes, things happen mixing good and bad things but that's how life works. Can't always choose what happens next! I've been so good at dodging the covid bullet but this time I could not and it actually me and my boys. I'm fortunately fully vaccinated so I'm good but the boys haven't but they're still doing ok and have luckily only mild symptoms. I ran fever for few days, my throat hurts and I have a semi-runny nose - but that's it. We're staying in the house for now so no super markets, gym, day care or school, and not really meeting any people. I'm working remotely from home and kids are relatively calm due to the illness. And since I've had more time at home and going through all the online stores finding the perfect down duvet on sale, I did find one at Hemtex .

Carena Kobbe travel stroller on sale + more sale items at Lekmer!

Hey everyone! Summer is coming, believe or not, and many of you may already have plans for your summer vacation. Everyone travelling with kids know that you always have so much stuff with you: all the luggage, travel stroller (or two) and all those carry on bags - that's a lot with crazy, running away kids :) My opinion these days is that if you have even just one idea that can save your nerves (and muscles), take it :D I know, I've talked about these so many times so why not this time too? Lekmer has all their Carena Kobbe travel strollers on sale which are similar to Babyzen yoyo travel stroller what comes to their size but are much cheaper compared to yoyo. We're not sure what we're doing this summer since we go back and forth with our summer plans. We sorta wanna go some where warm (Bulgaria, Greece etc.) but then again we like Estonia so much that we're talking about going there with our car and my parents might even come with us. Either way, we just don

Mountain buggy duet sisarusrattaat alessa!

This post is only in finnish this time :) Mukavaa sunnuntaita kaikille! "Tämä postaus on poikkeuksellisesti vain suomeksi ja se sisältää mainoslinkkejä. Mainoslinkki on boldattu  ja vievät tällä kertaa Jollyroomin sivuille." Ulkona tulee räntää ainakin espoon suunnalla ja meidän pojat jo kovasti odottaa talvea, lunta ja sitä myöten tietenkin joulua :) Itse aloin pohtia, miten pärjään talven matkarattailla, jotka nyt olleet etenkin autoillessa eniten käytössä koska niihin saa britax turvakaukalon kiinni. Näppärää, mutta edelleen se lumi: meillä siis Britax b-agilen matkarattaat ja noilla renkailla ei kyllä yhtään huvita tarpoa eteenpäin lumessa. Keskimmäistä varten niissä on seisomalauta, joka olikin kesällä käytössä mutta jotenkin nyt säiden kylmettyä 3v tahtoo istuimen. Mountain buggy duet tarjouksessa 499,90€ Sen takia olen taas pohtinut tuplaratasasiaa suuntaan ja toiseen, ja melkein jo päädyin ostamaan käytetyt Mountain buggy duet v3 Sisarusrattaat hintaan 350€.
